<p>But, yeah, your 100% right... which now makes me think of The Boys and the characters Translucent and The Great Wide Wonder. •shudders• </p>
<p>Oh, and if you want to add more TK style stuff, the <a href="https://www.d20pfsrd.com/alternative-rule-systems/psionics-unleashed/psionic-prestige-classes/telekinetic-weaponmaster/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Telekinetic Weaponmaster</a> PrC is pretty cool... or <a href="https://www.d20pfsrd.com/alternative-rule-systems/psionics-unleashed/psionic-prestige-classes/metamorph/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Metamorph</a> for a Beast Boy or Mystique style character... but I'm a Dreamscarred Press fan... shame they're defunct now.</p>Senko wrote:Interesting class though I find I personally prefer powers you can turn on or off when it comes to defense.

I am running a game in a modernesq setting and I am planning for a global event that will bestow psychic powers on previously mundane npcs. One that I have in mind is an individual who gets kineticist powers and uses them to try and imitate Superman's comic abilities. I'm thinking aether kineticist for kinetic haul, using kinetic blade to form brass knuckles for super punches,and the flying wild talents for flight. I'm looking for more ideas to flesh out the build. Note that I'm not actually trying to accurately replicate Superman's abilities, just create an npc that can do Superman like things in front of a news camera.</p>So.....
