Psionics 5e Conversion, Part 1

Thank you all for your patience!

Now, to unveil the latest of my LARGE homebrewing projects for the 5th edition of D&D:

PSIONICS

Why bother, you may ask?
Isn't this easier done with a sorcerer using spell points, you may ask?
What's with all the questions, you may ask?

Well, to break my thought process down for you fine folks:

  4. And I ran with it.
  5. Also, psionic combat is back in a way that I hope will be easy for new players to grasp and appealing to neckbeards such as myself.

I hope that I make at least one person out there in the vastness of the internet happy with this.
Just like with the incarnum options, this will be updated regularly and I will release the next two parts in a steady-ish stream.

Until then, may the dice fall in your favor :]
