Just wanted to share that the green sculpt is finished and we've gotten the Kickstarter approved!

So, what would YOU want to see as a miniature?


1 person marked this as a favorite.

As a Publisher - thankyou! As a customer - thankyou! As a fellow gamer - thanks again for making books better by talking to the publishers!

You do this community, both fans and authors, a major service and one which should be recognized.


We looked at updating Complete Control for Pathfinder and the problem is that Pathfinder changed the XP system around, which makes it a much harder venture - which includes creating a new XP system that adds balance to it again and isn't as much "plug and play" as Complete Control was.


Fantastic review (but then I am receiving it, so I might be biased here) - still a deep and focused review that brings everything to light for people who have come to trust you.

Quick question Thilo - do you submit Amazon reviews too?


Well, "take the place" is a little dependant - Psionics Unleashed will always be the "main Core Psionics Rulebook" that we work from, but Ultimate Psionics compiles these two books, adds all errata, simplifies and streamlines rules. So yes and no - its a revision, but not necessarily one that replaces Psionics Unleashed and Psionics Expanded.


JP: 99.5% of the classes will be exactly the same in UP as they are in PsiUn and PsiEx - the 0.5% is for errata and other functional problems that we might run across over time.

So feel free to go ahead!

Best regards

Thanks to everyone who supported us!

There is a final chance to get in on the pledges up to 100$ here: Kickstarter Late to the Party Survey

Also - Classic Monsters of Psionics might just include some flayers... ;)


Alexander - contentwise, the final Ultimate Psioncis book (b/w) will be the one that might show up in the Comic Shop. We are exploring if we can sell the color one via specific vendors, but we're not sure yet. We KNOW you'll be able to buy it directly via us at our website.

Finally, the Limited Edition comes with an integrated Bestiary, is signed and will NOT be available outside the Kickstarter. It's a one-time, limited, only for these backers, book.

So it depends really.

Some of the material, like more monsters, will show up in the Bestiary we release, or Seventh Path, which will gets its own release.


We're extremely happy for all the support we've received in this, both from awesome fans like yourself and now Paizo themselves are giving us a good "kickstart" on this!

So, from the depths of my heart to all of you: THANKYOU!

An estimation would be approx 500 pages for Ultimate Psionics regular edition - which means smaller than the Core book.

We are looking at using cardstock, the heavier builds rocket the costs insanely high.


No need to worry, we've focused really hard on ironing out all the problematic areas and, as Psionics players first and foremost, we've come across most of them ourselves and our fantastic fans found the rest during playtesting.

Now, as you surely understand, nobody is perfect, which is why we always invite people to help us find anything we might have missed.

We hope that you continue enjoying Psionics Unleashed and if you DO come across a problem, feel free to mail us at dreamscarredpress@gmail.com about it.

Have a wonderful day!

Psionic Monsters

This site has a list of them from 3.5, and some are still in Pathfinder; others are easily adaptable.

If you're using the Psionics Unleashed book by Dreamscarred Press, I caution you to examine everything your players use from it. I've always liked the Soul Knife and decided to reskin it as a "Witchblade", using witchfire as a premise for its effects and so on. While doing this, I got a distinct impression that a great deal of the combat mechanics of both 3.5 and Pathfinder were not well understood by those that worked on it (at least this class in particular). These aren't changes in mechanics, they're assumptions that the mechanics work in a way they do not.

I would also suggest D20PFSRD which has all our Psionic Monsters we did for Psionics Unleashed.

We would be very interested in hearing what particular mechanics you feel we didn't understand and how we can improve on the class (or classes). We've held a year long open Beta of the material and it was pretty heavily playtested, but we are always looking to improve, so feel free to share!


Like Maverick says, I meant the character would also feature inside the book, not on the cover, if someone misunderstood me.


<marketer>For those of you who haven't seen it - we have a bonus for when we hit 200 backers, and we've opened up 4 new spots for awesome character art. Let YOUR character grace the Ultimate Psionics book as well as the GM Screen and get all the goodies a 300$ pledge gets you at just 400$.</marketer>

With that said - considering how fast the 4 WAR positions disappeared, we decided to open up four more slots for the GM-screen, letting people take a second chance at getting awesome art as well as goodies. :)

Personally, I'm looking forward to the 200 backer bonus.

BTW, people have been taking an interesting use out of the 50$ "pitch" bonus which has lead to some interesting additions to the plan for us.

To stir things up and since you guys are so awesome at throwing cool things at us - are there any stretch goals or pledges that YOU would like us to add? Perhaps an add-on that you remember from another Kickstarter, or just something you want?

C'mon people, share! :)


I find that almost 200 backers pledging over 21k is an amazing thing. We don't have the same ways as established companies do to get the word out, we don't get featured in Wired (like Bones did, twice), we are already a niche product within Pathfinder and - we're not done yet! :)

So, even with thousands of copies of PsiUn sold, not everybody will have the inclination, time or even knowledge about the Kickstarter to be able to pledge.


As one of the primary developers for Psionics Unleashed and Psionics Expanded, we've gone through some pretty heavy playtesting to find any weird loopholes in the rules, shut down what was perceived as overly flexible (energy powers now require you to expend psionic focus to change energy type, except for Kineticists) and with that said, I will acknowledge that we aren't omnipotent.

If you find something that is wrong, lacking, unbalanced or just WEIRD in our books, come one over to www.dreamscarredpress.com and put it up at our forum. We've issued regular erratas, from small misprints to rebalancing of powers, because we hold that balance dear to our hearts.

Many posters here have proven time and time again why we believe psionics "in general" for Pathfinder is balanced, and I bet some of them might be mighty tired of rehashing the same arguments.Perhaps we should compile a thread there with the math, the general issues that people tend to raise and then just link people to that?

That way, we can all focus on productive and interesting discussions, such as how to convert magic into a points-based system! If you feel you have an idea for psionics, don't hesitate to come on over to our forums and pitch your ideas and thoughts.

We include everyone who helps with playtesting in the finalized book with a personal thankyou - even the smallest notice makes a huge difference.

With that, take care!

(As the title says, this is not a conversion. I am seeking advice on this build. Yes it is a PF build. Please do not move to the Conversion or 3.5 boards.)

My GM has ok-ed the 3.5 Flayerspawn Psychic and Illithid feats from Complete Psionics. I'm using Psionics Unleashed by Dreamscarred Press (fantastic book, by the way), and we're 11th level gestalt.

Now my plan is to:
-go Psion 5/Flayerspawn 6 for one half
-grab Illithid Grapple 4 times
-and I was thinking of combining this with a combat oriented class, to take advantage of having 4 nat. attacks with full BaB.

Now my choices are:
-Fighter; focus on just pure combat.
-Ranger; take nat. weapon combat style to get as many attacks as possible.
-Rogue; doesn't have as high a BaB, but lots of sneak attacks
-Go ranger/rogue with a psionic race and get loads of attacks and sneak attack.

Also for race I was thinking psionic duergar (yay!), half-giant, or blue.

What are the community's thoughts? Should I focus on combat and buffing myself? Screw combat and focus on powers? Or am I wasting my time on this whole flayerspawn stuff?

If you are going for pure combatability, I would suggest grabbing a Vivisectionist Alchemist, perhaps with Internal Alchemist and Rage Alchemist thrown into the mix. Use Mutagen, gain huge bonuses to Str, 3 additional natural attacks and some good buff spells.


Actually, pedophilia is sexual attractin to PRE-pubescent children. A 16-year old wouldn't even register with a pedophile, far too pubescent. And we've had our fair share of this discussion here in Sweden.

So whatever Luminiere might like otherwise, it sure isn't pedophilia. Just sayin'


Strange, and here I thought the Iconic Barbarian has a Large Greatsword for a Medium character...


I can only agree with the above. Send us a sample of what you've written and tell us what you want to write with us and WHY. If you do have a sample or concept you'd like to expand on, send it too.

Hi Jeff. Any way to contact you privately? I have some takes on psionics I used for my OA campaign from years ago and want to share them with you.

For the life of me I can't find a way to send you an e-mail, and this thread is where I see your posts mostly.

If its good, we don't mind if you send in suggestions or contributions either - good enough and we will pay and publish you.

dreamscarredpress@gmail.com is where you will find us. Feel free! :D


It should be said that our second PDF book has been slightly delayed because Jeremy has recently become a dad. So don't worry, it'll be coming along soon-ish. :)


Our goal with Psionics Unleashed was indeed to update the 3.5 ruleset into Pathfinder. We have loads of ideas and concepts that we want to present, but to present them we need a finished rule system to build upon. Considering the number of people who wanted an upgrade of the core book first and more material later, we chose to do one book which was backwards compatible (as far as we could) and then focus on new stuff in the upcoming books.

Psionics Expanded, our second book, is already under way, we have released Part 1 as a single PDF and we have two other parts waiting for illustrations.

In PsiEx we present classes such as the Aegis, who forms a combat suit from ectoplasm, the Exemplar, who channels psionic energy into his allies, the Marksman, who is the ranged combatant extraordinaire, the Vitalist, who binds all allies into a collective and strengthens them and finally, the Tactician, who uses the Collective, but to enhance his allies and drive co-operation and group-think.

Actually we have done two Dreamscarred Press Psionics Unleashed Compatible products: Secret Societies of NeoExodus: Section Omega (PFRPG) and NeoExodus Chronicles: Psionic Cavian. I am still debating if we are going to do a psionic suppliment for Obsidian Twilight.

First of all, thankyou for the kind words. We are happy to collaborate with other 3PPs putting out quality material and we'd naturally love to see something in Obsidian Twilight using our psionic material, but only if it makes thematic sense for the setting and the world.

We're happy to see all these companies - LPJr, Alluria (doing Waves of Thought), Rite Publishing and SGS - working off of our rules to create new and awesome content for all Pathfinder gamers. :)

I tried to post this yesterday, but had some internet issues...

The Exemplar Base Class is now in Alpha.

The Juggernaut looks like it should be out this week after Andreas and I had a developer brain storm session yesterday to finish out the remaining class features. Now it's just a matter of putting it all together.

We're also starting to put together our list of artwork we'll be needing so we can start getting those commissions going. :)

Looks cool. What's the fluff behind it?

The summary of the Exemplar is that he uses a philosophical ideal as a mental focus, which enhances his latent psionic abilities, creating a cascade of power. This manifests as an aura which enhances the ideal's concept in those around them. These people tend to become warrior-leaders, leading their allies from the front ranks. Some find other ideals, like the preservation of life, and become bodyguards to great leaders.

I haven't bought a copy of the book yet, but is is on tap for next month. How can I make sure that when I do buy it, I get the 2nd printing?

We will announce that an update has been made. Each PDF copy will also be updated free of charge.

Curious to know why most of my artwork is missing from the pdf. I notice in all my pathfinder products missing letters in the titles probably as a way to track file sharing i assume but the artwork? really?

We've made no implementations to "track filesharers" to be honest and this seems more, as someone pointed out, to be a problem with either an old Adobe Reader (we've noticed a few inconsistencies), or a third party PDF reader. I personally have no problems with Acrobat 9 or any of the Linux-readers I've tried, but we've also heard of a few small problems with people using a Mac?


We've sent something like 7 orders to Paizo, only the final one managed to take us out of backorder for a few hours. We have another one coming in already, and just put down an order for YET another order of books to be printed and sent off. Hopefully this will keep us for a few days ;)


greatamericanfolkhero wrote:
I usually buy print books from my FLGS. Is there any eta on these reaching ACD or alliance?

Unfortunately not right now. Our books are available via normal book channels, but most FLGS don't order through these channels. However, we have set up a specific account for Retailers at our website [www.dreamscarredpress.com]which gives the usual 50% discount on printed books from us. To qualify we need to verify the shipping adress and the minimum order is 4 books - but if this would interest your FLGS please point them to our website.


One box of 30 books was lost in transition somewhere, which is the reason it hasn't gone out of backorder yet. We have a bigger box of 50 incoming any day now in February so that should put it out of backorder.

Expect about a week for it to come in - if you want it ASAP, Amazon has stock left at this moment, but buying it here supports Paizo (which we recommend). Also, you can get it bundled with the PDF here, for just 5$ more, which you won't via Amazon.

If you have any questions, feel free to mail us at custserv@dreamscarredpress.com

If we get enough ideas for THREE books, or 128 pages in one book, and we like it, we don't mind going with something bigger. :)

There's the very likely chance that others will be selected for inclusion - if not in this project, in other projects with monsters (Third Dawn bestiaries, for example, or as monsters in upcoming adventures...). That's why we have second place prizes of PDFs and printed books. :)
Good to know! I'd like to see a lot more of original beasties included with the usual OGL suspects re-statblocked for Pathfinder. =)

Like Jeremy says above - there is a "fluid" number of "second prizes" available too, which could mean that the beasties get included in either the final Bestiary, or one of our other projects. We intentionally created this for the simple reason that if we come across multiple, good ideas, we still have room to include them if we want to.

This is a great idea.

Yeah, I'm really excited about this. (I'm a little more excited about RPG Superstar 2011 of course) but DSP's Psionic Bestiary contest gives me (us) something else to think about as well, during this "in-between time."

Good Luck Everyone!

What excites me about it, is that for many people (like myself) there isn't much of an opportunity to break into a career like this. There are thousands if not millions of wanna-be (I mean that in the nicest way, honest, I'm a wanna-be) designers out there who have been writing material for years for their own games. The number of open opportunities is far outweighed by the number of people trying to break into the industry, thus contests like Paizo's gives people some hope. But then companies like Dreamscarred (who I am sad I didn't learn about sooner as I LOVED 3.5 psionics) come across and give us similar opportunities. To me, this isn't a "If you don't make RPGSS then try us" but it's a second chance or a different opportunity to try to make what you want true.

There may not be a ton of money in writing for gaming products, but there is a certain pride and sense of accomplishment involved in it. Even if it's just fulfilling a far-off dream and not a pursuit of a career, it's still something worth doing.

Good luck, everyone.

First of all, I want to say thankyou for all the great responses and cheers we are getting from people here. :)

Second of all, I can only agree with the above sentiment of the sense of accomplishment and pride that comes with having something you've written be published. It's even better when it ends up in print, because then it's something you can put in your shelf and even display.

It should be said though, that much of the credit, even for this contest, should go to Paizo. If it wasn't for them, with opening up the Pathfinder RPG, supporting us third party publishers, or just inspiring us to do Open Playtests or even a contest like this - none of this would be happening.

Finally, looking forward to reading all your material! Good Luck to everyone and feel free to shoot us any questions you have.

How comparable is your rule-set to 3.5? I have a lot of psionic based creatures Ive designed over the years for my games and wouldn't mind throwing my hand in. I would just need to know if I need to spend the cash on a new book to learn what I would need to change in my current list of big bad psionic beasts.

Very. Please come over to our website and check out all the downloadable, free, Beta Playtest material to get a general grip on things. We naturally changed things, but the most major changes were made to the Soulknife, which usually doesn't touch Monster Design a lot.

So, come on over to our forums, download the PDFs you are interested in (and if you like it, THEN buy our book ;) ) and take a good look at what we're working with.

I look forward to seeing your entry.

On a side note, I'm extremely glad to learn this book even exists and will be buying the PDF almost immediately.

Also, I think it's awesome it was posted here so that starting developers have more than one chance at making it into the industries. HOWEVER, I do acknowledge the fact Paizo is doing there contest here. Perhaps we can have a thread devoted to posting other opportunities? Like for this contest, and also for the pathfinder module open-call, stuff like that? Because, that would be awesome to have a resource for other opportunities, not to sell this one short. This is probably everyone's dream chance, but if there are others out there, why not?

Psionics Unleashed, our Core Psionics book, is available both in Print and PDF, although the overwhelming demand for the book has left us scrambling for new print-runs from our printers, which is why it is on back-order.

However, one can still partake in this contest even without buying any books, simply by going to our website (details above) and downloading the Beta Playtest material, especially for monsters. Not everything will be 100% compliant with the finalized rules, which might lower your chances in the competition somewhat, but it's just a minor hurdle.

I agree that it would be awesome to have an entire forum dedicated to these kinds of competitions, and we do acknowledge that we might be in the wrong forum, but honestly no other place seemed to be as right as this one.

This doesn't seem right. Paizo/Pathfinder has revitalized the true awesomeness of Dungeons and Dragons...

Why would I support another company? That would be like shooting my RPG future in the foot!

If it seems wrong dependant on the forum, I'm awfully sorry about that. However, we are working in partnership with Paizo who promoted our book on their Store Blog, you can buy our book right here in the Paizo shop (last time I checked it was at #2 for Hot Sellers, which would suggest others like it too) in both Print and PDF (best way to support Paizo if you like our book is to buy it here).

Since we are developing new options for Pathfinder, I don't see us as competitors and we have even gotten word from the Paizo Design team that if they would (not sure about that) a Psionics ruleset, they would not follow a backwards compatible paradigm for that, but rather create it from scratch. This means that you can use both our system and Paizo's eventual system side by side without them trampling on eachother.

Hopefully this contest will give people a chance to get their foot through the RPG door, much like I did myself 5 years ago via Dreamscarred Press. I began with pitching an idea to Jeremy and ended up being one of two equal owners of the company. You never know where fate can take you :)

So, good luck to everyone!

I have a trio of monster ideas that I hadn't used (worked them up in case monsters might be a challenge for RPG Superstar this year) so I think I'd be able to rework them into psionic monsters.

Although, one question, (hopefully) being a contestant in RPG Superstar 2011 doesn't preclude me from entering this contest as well... does it?

Thanks for posting this.

No, taking part in RPG Superstar 2011 does not preclude you from entering this contest. Feel free to send your ideas in! :D


(First of all, it was suggested that we post this here since people interested in a career in RPGs were bound to read this forum. However, if this is against some form of policy or rule, we apologize from the start and don't mind if you close this thread or move it)

Dreamscarred Press's 2011 Bestiary Contest!

Dreamscarred Press is proud to announce its first Bestiary Contest. The contest is designed to give new, unknown, and struggling game designers the opportunity to be published. Dreamscarred Press owners Jeremy Smith and Andreas Rönnqvist will judge the entries and oversee the competition.

As the name implies, the contest is for monsters to be released in a psionic bestiary to be published by Dreamscarred Press. The winner of the contest will receive a paid commission to work on that bestiary.

Complete rules are available at the Dreamscarred Press website.

Hm, finally a reason to like me some psionics ;) Don't know if I'll pick up your rules just for this contest, but I might suggest that you leave a shout-out to this in the Rpg-superstar forums, as many people who might be interested in this will be lurking there too.

As was suggested, the Beta rules (we did an Open Playtest Cycle) are available at our website for those who don't want to pick up our book immediately.

I'll go find the RPG Superstar forums and see if we can post this competition there too. Thanks for the suggestion! :D

Can you point to such a third-party product that builds off another 3PP ruleset?

Nothing that is out "right now" - but we have three publishers (so far) working with us for their material to build off Psionics Unleashed. Only one of them has gone "public" with it, so we're happy to say we're working together with Louis Porter Jr to create compatible rules for his Section Omega to use the Core Psionics rules from Psionics Unleashed.

We're also working on an official "compatibility license" that other companies can use to indicate compatibility with our stuff.

Now, I want to add to the chorus of people cheering on Paizo. We've received only positive and helpful contact with all of them, from rules ideas and input on our material, to help with setting up sales for our books and everything inbetween.

That they take time to highlight us at their store blog is just one of many ways that they help the third party publishers thrive and grow. I can only chime in with Owen's words - this is an entirely new way of doing this - never before has the support from the "mother company" been as strong as this. Never before have we been as elevated as this.

Anyway, just wanted to throw my words into the discussion on this.

We're available via Ingram, but some FLGS's don't order via book distributors, so we're working on setting up a Publisher System via our website where an FLGS can order books directly from us to stock in their store with the same discount we give Paizo. Nice. Could you let me know when it's finally set up? I'll then notify my FLGS.

Absolutely. I'd wager a guess at sometime this afternoon (morning in the US). I've actually set the group up @ our website, I just need to confirm with Jeremy whenever he wakes up (the downside of being on different sides of the Atlantic Ocean).

To get more books to Paizo and all of you guys, I'm stepping down my 5-book order from our second print run. I've mailed Jeremy to throw the 5 books set aside for me and my crew into the order going to Paizo as soon as it hits.

I can wait. :) Thanks for supporting us and being awesome guys! :D


As Jeremy said, if you want to support your local store, ask them to order it from their Distributor. We have Expanded Distribution, which means they can order them. When ordering, perhaps suggest they pick up one for the shelf too? ;)


First of all, happy to see so many people are liking what we've made. It is as much the creation of the fans, as it is Dreamscarreds. Without the participation of so many in the Open playtests, it would never have been as polished as it is now.

Feel free to stop by at our website if you have questions. Check it out at [url]dreamscarredpress.com[/url] and come visit us in the forums.

We will naturally keep this thread under surveillance, but you might get answers faster at our own website.

We're also putting the next book - Psionics Expanded, into an Open playtest, just like this one was. The Chirurgeon and first batch of Blade Skills are already available at our website.


Thanks for the support guys!

Regarding Third Dawn: It is being updated, expanded, polished and perfected. A print version will come once we're done with all of that. It is being developed side by side with the coming Psionics Expanded, so as to make sure we keep things in Third Dawn synced with the new Pathfinder rules.


SUPERHAPPY to see it released!

So much work has gone into this book it's unbelievable. SO many fans poured their hearts into helping with the Open Alpha & Beta that it makes me smile every time!

Check out the attributions for playtesting and additional design! ;)

We'll love any review, good or bad, and we'll even give away any PDF in our store to whomever writes a review and tells us. Mail me - stormhierta@gmail.com if you've written a review and linked it either here, to our store or somewhere else where people can find our book.


If you guys would like to help us playtest our Core Psionics rules for Pathfinder, we'd love your input at ]Dreamscarredpress!

Please swing by! :D


Would it be an interesting product or article, if we picked up our Pathfinderized version of psionics, and renamed things to work in an "arcane" framework?

It'd be an interesting project to be honest and I'd always love a challenge - our Mentalis Design imprint could very well go with such a release. :)

Psion -> Thaumaturge
Psychic Warrior -> Swordmage
Wilder -> Maven
Soulknife -> Arcblade

One can even do a reflavor for more "naturalistic" themes, such as totems:

Psion -> Shaman
Psychic Warrior -> Totem Warrior
Wilder -> Wildling
Soulknife -> Shifter (mindblade becoming claws and bite)

Yeah... a product doing "variant flavors" for our Core Psionics system could be a cool thing. Whatya think?


For those that would like an update from this thread - the Soulknife has just hit Beta 2. Some people raised the opinion that it was overpowered - and like Paizo we preferred to go "a little overboard" in the Alpha to dial things back for the Beta. Now, the Soulknife got a second Beta and I'd love to hear your opinions about it.

Please come join us at Dreamscarred Press and tell us whatya think about it. Worst possible scenario, you continue to ignore it afterwards and you've only lost a minute or two. Best possible scenario, you find something you like and your feedback makes it into the book. :)

Looking forward to you guys coming by! :D
