No hard and fast rules, but the rough procedure would be to find powers that have similar effects and merge them into one power.

For different sorts of powers there would be one base power and all the similar powers' effects would become augments of it. If a class of powers is too broad (like the Energy * damage spells) you would have to buy the more powerful augments with an enhancement.

Every level you would realize a new ability with your powers, and would gain either a new power or number of enhancements to known powers.

This would give Psions more "powers known" in the 3.5 sense, but it would be a higher level of control over a more limited number of effects, reflecting a high mastery of whatever latent powers the character was born with.


I don't see the point of combining the Psion's limited power's known with prerequisite chains, but you could get a similar effect with have more low level powers and instead having more augments to get higher level effects. It seems to fit the flavor better with allowing more precise control of how powers are used, although this could mean one power could act as several did under earlier editions. Perhaps drop powers known as a counter-balance?


I'm aware of the bestiary, but it's 8 months away. Before then I think a web enhancement with just some of the playable races could appeal to anyone who has a vested interest with those races.


Are there any plans to release a web enhancement with the non-PHB player races?
I'm presently in a campaign switching to Pathfinder and our biggest hitch has been the Gray Elf and Kobold that lack balancing against the new races. Some word from Paizo would be doubleplusawesome.
