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 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.

[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.”
