====== Q* (Psy power) ====== A measure of one's psionic ability: the power of the mind and will to invoke effects directly. Wyrm's site says, "You may not know it, but there are those who can read your mind like a magazine, or move objects just by thinking. You can indicate your strength in Psionics using this tag." ===== Standard spectrum ===== As with [[dc2:magical ability]], positives represent an ability to use psionics, while negatives represent a passive, inherent interference with them, as opposed to using psionics to block psionic powers. Wyrm's site makes a point of noting that the traditional descriptions are illustrative of one's level of ability rather than descriptive of the kind of powers available. ==== Q+++! ==== //There's almost nothing I can't do if I put my mind to it.// ==== Q+++ ==== //I can move mountains, and not bit by bit!// ==== Q++ ==== //I know what you're thinking... did I use six psychic blasts or only five!!!// ==== Q+ ==== //I can talk to the odd spirit, or move very small rocks (churches, lead, ducks, etc.).// ==== Q ==== //I'm like a book, but haven't learned to read myself yet!// ==== Q- ==== //Psychics have trouble communicating when I'm around.// ==== Q-- ==== //Only my very outer thoughts are exposed.// ==== Q--- ==== //Psionics just don't seem to have any affect.// ==== Q---! ==== //Not only am I immune to any Psionic effect, but I prevent them happening around me as well.// ===== Modifiers ==== ==== [ability] ==== As with magic, if you have a particular specialty, it can be enclosed in square brackets after the rest of the tag. Wyrm's site suggests trying to abbreviate if possible, though it offers only one particular example: **V++[tk]** indicates "I am fairly good at telekinesis."
