[Psionic Spheres v1]

[Kaj]

[Psionic powers are based upon the strengths and weaknesses of the mind, and how they interact within the body's own strengths and weaknesses. Thus, there is a family of Psionic abilities tied to each one of a person's attributes.]



[Alteration] - Strength-based Psionics are used to alter the body's hardness, shape, and abilities to one's advantages. Regenerative and Augmentative abilities belong to this Sphere.

[Translocation] - Dexterity-based Psionics are used to manipulate the space around the psyker, allowing them to move or trigger objects and people from a distance. Telekinesis, Control of Surrounding Space, and Physical-Psychic Attacks belong to this Sphere.

[Evocation] - Constitution-based Psionics are used to bring out psychic energies as summoned weapons. The ability to manipulate existing elements and control energy into a weapon belong to this Sphere.

[Conjuration] - Intelligence-based Psionics are used to create forth eidolonal objects from the psyker's mind. Spirits, objects, and psychic trap-creation belong to this Sphere.

[Prognostication] - Wisdom-based Psionics are used to detect and "see" things which are beyond the human body's natural range of senses. Enhanced hearing, sight, and future-sight all belong to this Sphere.

[Subjugation] - Charisma-based Psionics are used to control and affect the mind of things. Such things as telepathy, suggestion, and emotional implants all belong to this Sphere.



Psionic powers come in six types which are formed of a base Sphere, and two supplimental Spheres. One supplimental sphere is more weighted than the other, as can be seen here, ranked highest to lowest:

Type 1: Alteration, Translocation, Subjugation
Type 2: Translocation, Evocation, Alteration
Type 3: Evocation, Conjuration, Translocation
Type 4: Conjuration, Prognostication, Evocation
Type 5: Prognostication, Subjugation, Conjuration
Type 6: Subjugation, Alteration, Prognostication

Psionic powers are gained by respective levels. Every time a Psyker levels up, they add 1 respective level in their main sphere, one half-level in their secondary sphere, and one-quarter in their tertiary sphere. New Psychic Powers are not gained until their level requirement is completely met, and cannot be used before.
