9.3.11 PSIONICS

The discipline of psionics was developed as a side effect from a cure they developed against thought parasites that were released from the gorgog invasion. The cure itself apparently changed the brain patterns of mages, allowing them to harness this new skill. The base skill of psionics allows different mental powers to be performed on three separate channels of thought waves. Once mastering psionics, mages may choose to either specialize in telekinesis or telepathy. Monks may specialise in Psychometabolism. Psionics draws its power from the ego, and psionicists are in danger of burning out their psionic powers the same as those with the healing skill are.
