Mindhunter

CR 15 Aberrration

A terror of twitching flame and thought-shattering will, the mindhunter hunts intellects, not flesh. Its tentacles ripple with psionic fire, unraveling memories and melting resolve before it ever strikes.

💬 What would you do if something came not for your flesh—but your mind and memories?

Just thought how funny it would be if mad scientist experiments were conducted like real life experiments like you can’t just lock the psychic magic kid in a room all day, you need a control group. And you might have to tell the control group they have psychic powers too to balance it out so now you got a bunch of children you convinced can shoot mind lasers.

Little Psionic Mind Trip

[starryknight-dragonarts]

“The Aeon of Creation”
Director Paracelsus
the Aeon of Life

Gender:
Male

Background:
Director Paracelsus is one half of a pair of (formerly) conjoined twins, and the second in command to the true leader of the Legion. With the assistance of the Legion's other fellow doctor and advancements he had his brother surgically removed from his body so he may have more of a public appearance as a full dragon instead of being seen as a walking freakshow. He still lacks the ability to fly but his artificial arm makes up for it. Along with being the Director of the Legion's research he is also the "Aeon of Life" Head of a particular branch of the Legion responsible for the study and application of magic used to create and control Life. His claim to fame is the creation of Dragon Homunculi (or more accurately "Draculi") a species of artificial living dragons made with Alchemy. It has been a long process to make them viable but he intends to have his Draculi soon completley replace the need for kidnapped child experiments; why steal test subjects when they can create their own. It would rid their subjects of any external factors making them less inclined to resist or have flaws that could make them more difficult to use. With Draculi they can control every part of their biology and make them ideal for every individual experiment.

Personality:
Paracelsus cares a lot about how he is perceived by other dragons and his standing in society, he's boastful, pretentious, and doesn't care who he has to sacrafice or step over in order to be seen as a brilliant genius despite, but he basically lacks any real skill, talent, or intelligence of his own. The only thing he's really good at is being able to spin lies to make himself look good and taking credit for other dragon's ideas and accomplishments. Because his image is based on towers of lies, he can be very dangerous if he feels threatened and will use anything his his power and authority as Legion Director to keep other Dragons silenced.

Strengths:
Deception, Influence, Conversationalist

Weaknesses:
Unoriginal, Shallow, Insecure

Powers: Psionic



Stats
 Elemental Energy: 9/10 It's unclear how exactly Elemental powers are meant to work in conjoined twins whether they are meant to have 1 source of power between then or have two individual sources. It seems like in this case Paracelsus got the larger share of energy or leeched power from his brother.

Elemental Control:

6/10 He is a little above average with his elemental power because it helps give him power and control over others, but very limited in his application of his powers. He has enough Telekinetic power to move heavy objects around, and if he needs to get rid of somebody he can use his power to inflict so much mental pain that it drives his enemies mad or cause them to lose memories.

Intelligence:
4/10 He is good enough at posing as intelligent as long as he has control of a conversation but he's actually pretty average and has never once had an original or smart idea that didn't come from somebody else.

Combat Ability: 6/10 He normally would only be below average at combat when he had his brother conjoined to him because he had limited control of his own body and could not collaborate well, but since having him removed and his body enhanced he is a lot stronger than he should be. Still does not completely make up for a lack of combat experience

Psionics: Spellcasting & Specialties

It's here! (And I'm gonna be straight about this from the start, its $9.99, and it's worth every penny.)

This book. Has taken far longer than it had any right to. It's also better than it really had any right to be. This started as a post it note on my wall. It is now 42 pages. It contains rules for adding psionics into 5e without making it a whole new thing that only some people can kind of take advantage of.

This isn't the mystic UA all over again. This is psionics for EVERYONE.

Three types of psionic spellcasting that work on any spellcaster. ANY spellcaster. I don't care how complex your multi-class is, this book works on it. I made specific adjustments for every spellcasting feature, including third-casting (do you know how relatively obscure third-casting is? There aren't even official rules for multiclassing a third-casting spellcaster with other spellcasting classes.)

Six feats that add or empower psionics.

13 subclass options (one for each class) that use psionic abilites.

35 psionic spells. What's a psionic spell? That's a spell in the psionic school that this book also adds; these are spells only accessible to characters using psionic spellcasting. There's also rules for roping older spells from other books into the psionic school to better sort out who can use what.

Have I mentioned before that there are also three new creature stat blocks? The various features and abilities in this book necessitate the creation of three new creatures. Are they summons? Yeah, that does dampen the excitement a little, but they can be encountered in the wild too and (I'm excited about this bit) they aren't just an extension of your action economy. These creatures don't have to listen to you.

I'm really excited about this. It's a big project. I'm glad it's finally complete. I get to move on to other things on my list, and I can finally blab about details for this project (which I will do gradually).

Psithalide Skitterling

CR 1/4 Monstrosity

Small but cunning, these agile infiltrators were shaped for espionage and sabotage. Silent as shadows and unnervingly intelligent for their size, skitterlings slip through cracks, gather secrets, and sow discord where least expected.

What would you do if one was watching you right now?

The campaign I’ll be playing them in starts in a couple weeks and I’m very excited to start fresh with a new character.

[davekat-sucks]

Pretty sure psychic and psionic are separate things. Even Vriska herself she is more PSYCHIC than psionic. Make up your mind, you dum8 8itch!!!! Or James Roach and Homestuck Independent Creative Union forgot their own Homestuck lore.
