treveller psionics and psionic institutions

but i have some ideals about speacial talents
Determining Specific Special Ability
If a character possesses Psionic Strength rating of 9+ at the time of psionic examination, the referee will secretly roll to determine the character's potential special ability. The referee may inform the player that his character has the potential for a special ability, but should not disclose what that ability is. Once the character has found an institute capable of teaching a special ability, the referee must then reveal the special ability for which the character has the potential. To determine the ability that a particular character is capable of roll on the special ability Table, as with the psionic talents.

Nice list (posted twice for our convenience I see :wink: ).

Invisibility is an important one to include since the Chirpers and Droyne have that ability. Just remember that Invisibility is a psychic phenomena, not a physical one, so sensor and cameras will still pick up the "invisible" character. You are affecting the mind of your target to "forget you" rather than actually bending light around yourself.

Astral Projection would allow a person to make psionic attacks/readings remotely correct? They get sight and sound and mental stuff, but no physical interaction?

Jame had a nice list of extra Psionic abilities that he posted on another board, maybe he is willing to share here too?
 
A Special talent a long-time character of mine has is an extension of Awareness to counteract aging. Gets rid of those pesky aging rolls while essentially not affecting any other part of the game.

OOHHH! Psionic Immortality! I like it!

IN CT, it requires PSR-15 and Awareness-15. See AM Droyne.

Yes, it does. The character takes quite a bit of work to run but it's a blast. I'm in the process of converting him to MongTrav.

And it's not "immortality". It's merely "unaging". Immortality means you can't die. The Rejuvenation psionic ability doesn't protect you from being shot, burned, drowned, crushed, asphyxiated, etc.

But you will leave a good-looking corpse. *grin*
