Psionics

Psionics are abounding in the world of Athas. They're so ubiquitous that it's really not all that uncommon for many of the farmers, nomads, and slaves of Athas to have some form of psionic ability, even if that ability is simply to defend oneself from the psionic assaults of others. The field of psionics are collectively referred to as "the Way."

Psionics will operate on the same "slots per day" casting system that magic operates on, because a second system is unnecessary, especially when the goal is to achieve nearly identical results. Preliminary plans are to port the base Sorcerer class from the PHB into a psionicist class, and when that feat is under way, we'll have a better sense of how the porting/construction will go on the field of psionics as a whole.

The Psionicist spell list will include the following (in progress):
