Psions unleash the potential locked within every conscious mind, move objects with just a thought, and assume command of even the least desire of their foes. Psions make manifest their secret wishes when others can only dream. You know the mental pathways that lead to amazing edifices of altered reality. You could be a brash human youth flush with your mental ability's first flowering, a tattooed cenobite enrolled in a secret psionic academy, a fey enchanter using ancient techniques to beguile your foes, or perhaps a specially trained inquisitor who has learned one secret too many. Power Manifestation As one who has honed their mental strength beyond the perceived limits of the mind, you manifest psionic powers, which are similar to spells, but are quite different. Some spellcasters have managed to create a small bridge between the two in psychic spells, but you, unlike they, use the power of the brain to its true potential.

    Andrew May Pseudoscience and Science Fiction Science and Fiction Editorial Board Mark Alpert Philip Ball Gregory Benford Michael Brotherton Victor Callaghan Amnon H Eden Nick Kanas Geoffrey Landis Rudi Rucker Dirk Schulze-Makuch Ru€diger Vaas Ulrich Walter Stephen Webb Science and Fiction – A Springer Series This collection of entertaining and thought-provoking books will appeal equally to science buffs, scientists and science-fiction fans. It was born out of the recognition that scientific discovery and the creation of plausible fictional scenarios are often two sides of the same coin. Each relies on an understanding of the way the world works, coupled with the imaginative ability to invent new or alternative explanations—and even other worlds. Authored by practicing scientists as well as writers of hard science fiction, these books explore and exploit the borderlands between accepted science and its fictional counterpart. Uncovering mutual influences, promoting fruitful interaction, narrating and analyzing fictional scenarios, together they serve as a reaction vessel for inspired new ideas in science, technology, and beyond. Whether fiction, fact, or forever undecidable: the Springer Series “Science and Fiction” intends to go where no one has gone before! Its largely non-technical books take several different approaches. Journey with their authors as they • Indulge in science speculation—describing intriguing, plausible yet unproven ideas; • Exploit science fiction for educational purposes and as a means of promoting critical thinking; • Explore the interplay of science and science fiction—throughout the history of the genre and looking ahead; • Delve into related topics including, but not limited to: science as a creative process, the limits of science, interplay of literature and knowledge; • Tell fictional short stories built around well-defined scientific ideas, with a supplement summarizing the science underlying the plot.

  • Cataclysmic Ectoplasmic Psychedelic Barbaric 4E D&D
    CATACLYSMIC ECTOPLASMIC PSYCHEDELIC BARBARIC 4E D&D By Ron Edwards It's a unique non-canonical setting built from selected components of rulebook material. I started with races and classes I found most fun to look at – briefly, most of the primals and the psionics. From there I brainstormed a sylvan paradise disrupted by aberrant metaphysical chaos, where cataclysm is the new normal. THE SETTING It's a physically and metaphysically shattered world: not really holding together, and not really meaning anything. Imagine wilderness, ruins, voids, wastelands, ancient battlefields, crystals, vortices, with some surviving strongholds and holdouts. Forget all canonical D&D imagery. I'm talking about serious Ditko-level surrealism, Moebis-art landscapes and mind-shattering voids with barely cohering floating fragments of worlds, phase-isolated echoes of the past or future, and the occasional inability to tell whether you're in some kind of reality or trapped in someone's mind. The vortices provide the "dungeon" in the game title, freaky three-D spherical manifestations – they grow, therefore getting more and more levels/interiors, which is awesome. Tripping yet? Good. This is raw psycho-savage fantasy at the edge of hallucination. Damage will be described in detail. I expect characters to get naked. RACES These are the only player-character races in the setting: Githzerai, Shifter, Minotaur, Shardmind, Wilden We're working only from the abstracted descriptions in the 4E books, so we're using absolutely no content from the canonical settings or

    Amanda Castaneda (Manda) Alignment: Scrupulous P.C.C.: Lucky Psychic Occupation: Navigational Systems Engineer Explanatory note: The following is a transcript from part of an audio recording taken during an interview between Dr. Edmond Smythe and Amanda. Amanda: … Over time, Martika and her team mapped out roughly two miles of East L.A that they consider to be experiencing an “extreme amount of paranormal activity”. Our house is right in the middle of that area. Dealing with magical anomalies, paranormal activities and supernatural problems was a regular thing. I was growing up in it, and therefore I was investigating it with her until I came up here for college. As much as I wanted to continue investigating the paranormal, I kept my head down and in my school work. I’d planned to go back home after graduating, but I got lucky - I am a lucky psychic ya know - and was hired right out of school. Turns out, my head for numbers is in demand with tech companies here. So, for the time being my home is here in Seattle, but I want to get back into investigating the paranormal with the Lazlo Society. Smythe: I’ve haven’t had the pleasure of meeting Martika yet, but I’ve heard nothing but good things about her. Talking with her on the phone the other day, she had nothing but good things to say about you. So really, from the sounds of it, her loss is my gain. Its good to have you on my team. Amanda: Thank you. She said the same about you.

  • Simple Psionics
    Simple Psionics Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything Compatible Psionics Psionics in 5e D&D has been a very controversial topic. When first released as part of UA, WOTC’s attempts were generally considered overcomplicated to such an extent that it received very negative backlash. With the release of TCOE, Psionics has been reduced to a very limited set of powers used by the Soul Knife Rogue and the Psi-Warrior Fighter. Dissatisfied with the end result, I decided to try and make a dedicated psion which integrates as smoothly as possible with the existing mechanics.

  • Important Health Warning About Playing Video Games
    Important Health Warning About Playing Video Games Photosensitive Seizures A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games. These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures. The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by taking the following precautions: Sit farther from the screen; use a smaller screen; play in a well-lit room; and do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued. If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing. PEgI ratings and guidance applicable within PEgI markets only. What is the PEGI System?
