ISBN 1-56076-054-0 2117 The following alterations have been made in this electronic text from the original: - The Table of Contents does not list page numbers; - The text reflects incorporation of errata published in The Will and The Way: 1 Psychokinetic Disciplines The following Devotions do not require Telekinesis as a prerequisite: Animate Shadow, Control Light, Control Sound, Molecular Agitation, Soften. 2 Telepathic Disciplines - On page 75 the heading for the Fate Link power is missing. - Psychic Crush should be a devotion and Psionic Blast should be a science. - Ego Whip and Mind Thrust both require Contact as a prerequisite. - Telepathic defense modes have no prerequisites. A character does not need access to Telepathy to get Defense modes. - The Mindlink power is not a prerequisite for the following Devotions: Empathy, ESP, Identify Penetration, Incarnation Awareness, Psychic Impersonation, Send Thoughts. 3 Metapsionic Disciplines - All references to Telepathic power (or prerequisite) should be changed to Mindlink instead. 4 Psionic Monsters list Brain Mole: References to the amplification power should be changed to Psychic Drain. Also, Mind Thrust is a Telepathic Power, not Metapsionic. Intellect Devourer (adult): References to the amplification power should be changed to Psychic Drain. Also, Ectoplasmic Form should be listed as a Discipline, not a Science. - Some minor alterations in the placement of various Tables have been made to make the text more coherent in this format; - A minor correction was made to the Bibliography (the title of a book by Zenna Henderson); - Some additions were made to the Bibliography; - The Thought Eater was moved to its proper place, after the Su-Monster. - The Summary of Powers and the Powers Index found at the end of the book are not included here (redundant in this format); - Scattered typographical errors were corrected throughout the text. Text that is colored green (like this) is information obtained directly from Mr. Steve Winter that clarifies certain aspects of the rules. No doubt, new errors were introduced. This document has been proofread and spellchecked several times in order to reduce the instance of new errors, as well as old errors that might have gone undiscovered. A great deal of effort was made to make this text as similar as possible to the original, printed version. I apologize for any errors that slipped through (please note that, depending on the program you use to view this file, you may find certain formatting “ errors” that will not show up in other programs. For example, this document was edited in MS Word; there are a substantial number of alterations in the tabs when this is viewed with WordPad, or WordPerfect). AN IMPORTANT NOTE: Much of the material presented in the AD&D 2nd Edition Dark Sun campaign supplement, The Will and the Way, is considered to be official supplementary material for The Complete Psionics Handbook, except for that material which is stated to relate to Dark Sun only. Particularly, Chapter 3 to the end can be considered supplemental to this book, with relatively minor editing to remove Dark Sun references; Chapters 1 and 2 have almost no bearing whatsoever on this book.

As a matter of fact, you might be, if you're an AD&D® game character with the right stuff. All you need is brainpower, discipline, and The Complete Psionics Handbook. Psionics - the practice of extraordinary psychic powers - was included in the original AD&D game. Some players favored psionic powers; others found them confusing. Psionics was not included in the AD&D 2nd Edition game. Now psionics is back by popular demand, and it's better than ever. Powers this great may not be for everyone, so psionics is a completely optional addition to the AD&D 2nd Edition rules. But if you're ready to put mind over matter - to test the limits of inner space - then this book is for you. The Complete Psionics Handbook is not a reprint of the old psionics rules; it's a complete revision. If you remember the original AD&D rules, you'll find much that seems familiar here. Beware: old words may have new meaning. We've kept a lot of the terminology, but changed the definitions. Read this book carefully before you assume an old rule still applies or jump to conclusions about what certain powers can or cannot do. What's Changed? This book contains five major revisions to the original AD&D psionics rules: 1) The psionicist is a character class. Characters cannot pick up a psionic power here and there just because they have a superior brain. Psionicists are extraordinary characters who develop their powers through arduous training (while members of other classes may occasionally boast a psionic power or two, such characters are mere shadows of true psionicists). An NPC psionicist has the potential to stand his own against any other class. As a PC in a team of adventurers, the psionicist will complement other classes well. Most of the psionicist's powers are unique. He advances slowly, at a rate somewhere between the fighter and

    Arak and Gwydion (Some Thoughts on the Shadow Elves' History) By R. Sweeney Gwydion isn't a 'real' demon, but rather a creature of great power from the plane of shadow. Gwydion's evil was his enslavement of the ShadowElves. His torment is his betrayal by Arak. Unlike Vecna, he was not on the prime and could only be 'trapped' because he was trying to follow the Shadow Elves into RL. (Presumably to kill them or re-enslave them). I wonder what Arak was thinking, however. Would there be anyplace he could take the Shadow elves into exile where Gwydion could not follow? Did he think he could hide from such a powerful creature? Gwydion must have had an enemy. A sibling perhaps. The Shadow Elves must have acted as some sort of armed forces for him. Arak must have believed that if Gwydion suddenly found himself without his Slaves, he would have been destroyed by his rivals. However, there other.. less satisfying, perhaps, ways of re-writing ShadowElf history. Gwydion, the shadow-being, falls 'in love' with an elf from some other world. They mate, bear children. Woman dies, Gwydion takes his children and their children as slaves. Millenia pass. Arak was Gwydion's favorite. Perhaps, Gwydion had mated with one of the Shadow elves of unsurpassed beauty and begat Arak. Thus, he set his son above all the other slaves. Arak, however, desired more than to be the head of the slaves. He managed to betray his father to his enemies. Arak had intended patricide. He was going to take away Gwydion's protective armed forces, leaving him vulnerable to attack by his other enemies.

  • Welcome to the Great Ring
    Planescape Campaign Setting Chapter 1: Introduction Introduction Project Managers Ken Marable Gabriel Sorrel Editors Gabriel Sorrel Sarah Hood Writers Gabriel Sorrel Sarah Hood Layout Sarah Hood 1 There hardly seem any words capable of expressing the years of hard work and devotion that brings this book to you today, so I will simply begin with “Welcome to the planes”. Let this book be your doorway and guide to the multiverse, a place of untold mysteries, wonders the likes of which are only spoken of in legend, and adventurers that take you from the lowest depths of Hell to the highest reaches of Heaven. Here in you will leave behind the confines and trappings of a single world in order to embrace the potential of infinity and the ability to travel Introduction wherever you please. All roads lie open to planewalkers brave enough to explore the multiverse, and soon you will be facing wonders no ordinary adventure could encompass. Consider this a step forward in your gaming development as well, for here we look beyond tales of simple dungeon crawling to the concepts and forces that move worlds, make gods, and give each of us something to live for. The struggles that define existence and bring opposing worlds together will be laid out before you so that you may choose how to shape conflicts that touch millions of lives. Even when the line between good and evil, lawful and chaotic, is as clear as the boundaries between neighboring planes, nothing is black and white, with dark tyrants and benevolent kings joining forces to stop the spread of anarchy, or noble and peasant sitting together in the same hall to discuss shared philosophy.
