Telekineticist[edit]
Telekineticists are masters of force and the mind, they move objects and crush people with their brain. Overall the telekineticist is the equivalent of a psionic warlock specializing in psychokinesis, capable of issuing their very limited supply of powers almost at will. Unlike psions and other psionic classes, the telekineticist use psi-like abilities powered not by power point but rather by telekinetic energy points. These points are unlike power points in many respect, the telekineticist possess very few of those points but can recharge them all with a single action. The telekineticist sacrifices versatility for effectiveness and the ability to keep going through an entire day with her powers.
