'''Mind over Matter (Su):''' Even constructs can be affected by your mind-affecting spells.

Psychic Disciplines

New disciplines for the psychic class.w

Aura

You can project your aura, and read the auras of others.

Publisher: Purple Dock Games.

Phrenic Pool Ability: Wisdom.

Bonus Spells: Magic aura (1st), analyze aura OA (4th), aura sight ACG (6th), aura alternation OA (8th), wall of force (10th), phantom limb OO (12th), mage's sword (14th), communal mind blank UC (16th), akashic form OA (18th).

Discipline Powers: Your powerful aura can manifest and grant you abilities.

Glowing Aura (Sp) You can glow at will, as light with a personal range. By spending one point of your phrenic pool when you activate this effect, you can increase the effective spell level of this effect (as Heighten Spell) to half your psychic level, overcoming darkness effects of a level lower than this.

Manifest Aura (Sp) Manifesting your aural gives you constant mage armor (sp). You manifest or dismiss your aura as a swift action. When your aura is manifest, others who are able to use the read aura psychic unlock can use it against you as a standard action and it doesn't count against their daily limit. This makes you a practitioner of the Way of Force, see Unarmored and Dangerous, also by Purple Duck Games. All information needed to use this ability is given here.

Defensive Aura Mastery (Su) At 5th level, you becomes a master at using force armors, and the armor bonus of mage armor and bracers of armor stack when worn by you. These bonuses normally do not stack.

Flash of Aura (Su) At 13th level, you can cause your aura to to flash, projecting an aspect of your personality. This works as judgement lightUC, and you can choose any one of the listed judgments. You can choose any alignment for the resiliency and smiting judgments, and any type of energy for the resistance judgment.

This is a swift action that costs one point from your phrenic pool. You can add an additional judgement effect to the flash by paying an additional 2 points from your phrenic pool. The DC of the Will saving throw against this ability is 10 + 1/2 your class level + your Wisdom modifier.

Cathexis

Your ego summons spiritual echoes of itself.

Publisher: Purple Dock Games.

Phrenic Pool Ability: Wisdom.

Bonus Spells: Summon monster I (1st), summon monster II (4th), summon monster III (6th), planar ally (lesser) (8th), summon monster V (10th), planar ally (12th), banishment (14th), planar ally (greater) (16th), gate (18th).

Discipline Powers: Your ideals take tangible form.

Ego Sumoning (Su) You gain Summon Evil Monster CoC, Summon Good Monster CoP, and Summon Neutral Monster CoB as bonus feats. Any time you summon a creature with the celestial template, that creature has a good alignment you specify. When you summon a creature with the counterpoised template, it is lawful neutral, neutral, or chaotic neutral in alignment (your choice). When you summon a creature with the fiendish template, it has an evil alignment of your choice.

Ego Avatars (Su) When you use a summon monster spell to summon a creature with an alignment exactly matching yours, you can chose one of two benefits: that spell has a casting time of one standard action, or the duration increases to 1 minute per level. You cannot use ego avatars again if you are currently controlling a creature that has benefited from the ability.

Augmented Ego At 5th level, you gain Augment Summoning as a bonus feat. You can undercast summon monster spells. Undercasting allows you to replace discipline bonus spells.

Id Monsters (Su) At 13th level when you use a summon monster spell to summon a creature whose alignment is more than one step removed from yours, either on the good-evil or law-chaos axis, you can chose one of two benefits: that spell has a casting time of one standard action, or the duration increases to 1 minute per level. You cannot use id monsters again if you are currently controlling a creature that has benefited from the ability, but you can use ego avatars and id monsters at the same time.

Dance

You harness your mental powers through dance.

Discipline Powers: Your body is an expression of your psychic power.

Dancer (Ex): You gain Perform (dance) as a class skill, and you add a bonus equal to half your psychic level (minimum +1) to all Perform (dance) checks.

Distracting Dance (Su): Make a Perform (dance) check (DC equal to the saving throw DC) as an immediate action to counter magic effects that depend on sight. Any creature within 30 feet (including you) that is affected by an illusion (pattern) or illusion (figment) magical attack gains a +4 circumstance bonus on its saving throw until the beginning of your next turn. This does not grant an additional disbelief saving throw; interaction is still needed for disbelief.

Versatile Dance (Ex): At 5th level, you can use your skill bonus in Perform (dance) in place of your bonus in Acrobatics and Fly. When substituting in this way, you use your total Perform (dance) skill bonus, including class skill bonus and the bonus from the dancer ability, in place of its associated skill's bonus, whether or not he has ranks in that skill or if it is a class skill. You can retrain any skill ranks you have in Acrobatics and Fly.

Cosmic Dance (Ex): At 13th level, You can choose to replace the thought and emotion components of a spell you cast with a somatic component, replacing the mental or emotional focus normally required with physical balance.

Death

In life, death is a possibility at any moment. However, death is not necessarily permanent. Some people brought back from the dead are changed by the experience, gaining psychic powers and the ability to see when death is approaching. Whether triggering moment was a near-death experience or an actual resurrection, it left you with one foot in the grave.

Phrenic Pool Ability: Wisdom.

Bonus Spells: hide from undead (1st), ghostbane dirge APG (4th), speak with dead (6th), deadman's contingency UI (8th), death ward (10th), ghostbane dirge (mass) APG (12th), control undead (14th), etherealness (16th), astral projection (18th).

Discipline Powers: Death is not a barrier to you.

Eye of Death (Su) As a standard action you can determine the condition of a creature within 30 ft. You instantly know whether the creature is dead, fragile (alive and wounded, with 3 or fewer hit points left), fighting off death (alive with 4 or more hit points), healthy, undead, or neither alive nor dead (such as a construct). Any effect that blocks detection of any kind prevents eye of death.

Premonitions of Death (Su) You can have a sudden premonition of the ally's demise. This is an immediate action that dazes you for one round. During this round you can still communicate, but can take no actions. The range is unlimited and you need not know of the event, but you need some way to communicate with the ally to give any benefit. This ability can be used once per day. At level two, and every four levels thereafter, you gain another daily use of the ability.

This can be used in two ways. It can be used on an ally that fails an skill check, ability score check, or saving throw. The ally rerolls the failed die roll and takes the better of the two rolls. It can be used on an enemy that succeeds at an attack roll, combat maneuver check, or a caster level check against an ally. That enemy must reroll the successful roll and use the worst of the two rolls.

Out of Body (Su): At 5th level, you can temporarily divorce your soul from your body. You becomes ethereal, leaving the body behind as an empty shell. Observation will reveal the body is still alive with a DC 20 Heal check. Without a soul, your body begins to slowly die, taking one hit point of damage per minute that cannot be prevented or redirected. This and any other damage inflicted on the body affects you in your ethereal form. Effects other than damage affecting the body do not transfer to your ethereal self. Your body is considered an object while you are out of body.

You enter the Ethereal Plane and may move unimpeded by physical barriers, but the range you can move from your body is limited. You may only move 5 feet away from your body per character level. You can end out of body simply by moving back inside your body, which immediately revives.

Eternalness

An ethereal creature is invisible, insubstantial, and capable of moving in any direction, even up or down, albeit at half normal speed. An ethereal creature can move through solid objects, including living creatures. An ethereal creature can see and hear on the Material Plane, but everything looks gray and ephemeral. Sight and hearing onto the Material Plane are limited to 60 feet.

Force effects and abjurations affect an ethereal creature normally. Their effects extend onto the Ethereal Plane from the Material Plane, but not vice versa. An ethereal creature can't attack material creatures, and spells cast while ethereal affect only other ethereal things. An ethereal creature treats other ethereal creatures and ethereal objects as if they were material.

Spirit Journey (Su): At 13th level, your soul can travel the world beyond and back, possibly bringing someone back. When using out of body, you can depart to the Astral Plane and move to the outer planes. Which outer planes you can visit depend on the setting, but you are restricted to whichever plane acts as a way station for the recently deceased, as well as the outer plane that matches your alignment. The process of transferring to the Astral or an Outer Plane takes 10 minutes and 10 minutes to return.

While in the outer planes, you can commune with the dead, or even bring a being back with you. While in the Outer Planes, you can ask one question by spending ten minutes and one point from your phrenic pool. This functions as contact other plane used to contact the Astral Plane.

By spending one hour and six points of phrenic pool in the Outer Planes you can bring a deceased entity back to the material plane and have them manifest in the physical world. Finding a spirit requires a Knowledge (religion) check with a DC of 30 + the number of years since death. You gain a circumstance bonus on this check depending on how familiar you are with the deceased.

If the check succeeds, the spirit can be made to manifest in the living world for one hour per psychic level. The deceased is the same as they were in life, with the addition of the petitioner templateB1 and with memories intact. If the check is failed, you unknowingly bring back a random outsider or undead with a CR equal to your own character level, as planar ally but without the control. The creature wants to explore the Material Plane, and might pretend to be the spirit you sought.

Object of Desire (Su): When you are under a charm effect and the creature that has you charmed fails a Charisma check to convince you to take a certain action, you can make an opposed Charisma check as an immediate action.

All aspects of the transferred afflictions (save DCs, remaining duration, removal conditions, and so on) remain the same, but affect you instead of the original target.

You can add an additional focus component to the spell, an object of your choice (this must be the mirror component for mirror hideaway, and this component can be moved without ending the spell). When the spell ends, you exit adjacent to that object. You are aware of the area within 10 ft. of the focus when inside the shelter. You can end the spell at any time, and can spend the time inside in a healing trance. Healing trance does not cause your shelter spell to expire faster. If you are in temporal stasis, or imprisonment, time passes at ten times the normal rate for the purpose of your healing trance ability.

Weapon Somatics (Ex): At 5th level, when you are wielding your kata weapon, you can choose to replace thought and emotion components of a spell you cast with a somatic component and a focus component (no focus if using an unarmed attack), replacing the mental or emotional focus normally required with physical control.

Weapon Somatics (Su): When you are wielding your Kyū, you can choose to replace a thought or emotion component of a spell you cast with somatic and focus components, replacing the mental or emotional discipline normally required with physical harmony.

In addition, all spells of the conjuration (healing) subschool and all spells converted by sinister hand count as mind-affecting spells when you cast them, but only for the purpose of what phrenic amplifications they can be used with.

Healing Aura (Sp) At 13th level you can spend one point from your phrenic pool to cast a spell of the conjuration (healing) subschool as if it had a range of close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels).

Rage

Many psychics seek to control their anger. Not you; you release your anger as a terrible force.

Phrenic Pool Ability: Wisdom.

Bonus Spells: Burst of adrenaline OA (1st), rage (4th), haste (6th), moonstuck APG (8th), dragon's breath APG (10th), transformation (12th), greater hunger for flesh HA (14th), moment of prescience (16th), heroic invocation UC (18th).

Discipline Powers: You can channel your anger into psychic power.

Psychic Rage (Ex): You can call upon inner reserves of power and ferocity, gaining additional combat prowess. At 1st level, you can use psychic rage for a number of rounds per day equal to 3 + 1/2 your psychic level + your Wisdom modifier. Entering a psychic rage is a free action. The total number of rounds of psychic rage per day is renewed when preparing spells. While in a psychic rage, you gain a +1 bonus caster level, spell save DCs, and Will saving throws. In addition, you take a –2 penalty to Armor Class and Reflex saving throws. You can't use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration other than casting spells using psychic magic or using phrenic amplifications.

You can end your psychic rage as a free action, and are fatigued for 1 minute after a psychic rage ends. You can't enter a new psychic rage while fatigued or exhausted, but you can otherwise enter a psychic rage multiple times per day. If you fall unconscious, your psychic rage immediately ends.

Rage Casting (Ex): You can ignore thought and emotion components of psychic spells you cast while in a psychic rage.

Uncanny Dodge (Ex): At 5th level, you gain the ability to react to danger before your senses would normally allow you to do so. You cannot be caught flat-footed, nor do you lose your Dexterity bonus to AC if immobilized. You can still lose your Dexterity bonus to AC if an opponent successfully uses the feint action against you.

Master of Rage (Ex): At 13th level, the bonus on caster level, spell save DCs, and Will saving throws when in a psychic rage improves to +2.

Science

You are a scientist studying your own powers.

Phrenic Pool Ability: Wisdom.

Bonus Spells: Your bonus spells vary from day to day, see psychic study, below.

Discipline Powers: Your powers derive from study.

Psychic Studies (Ex): Your bonus spells vary from day to day. You select your bonus spells during spell preparation. For each level of spells you can cast, you can choose one bonus spell from the psychic spell list. This must either be a spell you witnessed being used since you last prepared spells, or the same bonus spell you had of that level yesterday.

Repeated Experiments (Su): If you cast the same spell on the same target two rounds in a row, you regain one phrenic pool point. Repeating the same spell a third time does not give additional benefits. You can gain a maximum number of points per day this way equal to your Wisdom bonus.

Arcane Studies (Ex): At 5th level, when using psychic studies, you can select an spell not on the psychic spell list if you have observed an arcane or psychic spellcaster casting that spell since you last prepared spells, or if you selected it as a bonus spell yesterday. The spell level is one level higher for you than it was for the caster you observed casting it.

Divine Studies (Ex): At 13th level, can you prepare divine spells the same way arcane studies lets you prepare arcane spells.

Solipsism

Your inner life is more important than the so-called reality around you.

Phrenic Pool Ability: Wisdom.

Bonus Spells: Detect mindscape OA (1st), instigate psychic duel OA (4th), mindscape door OA (6th), create mindscape OA (8th), impossible angles HA (10th), subjective reality OO (12th), magnificent mansion (14th), create demiplane UM (16th), maze of madness and suffering HA (18th).

Discipline Powers: Your internal reality dominates your life.

Objective Mindscape (Su): Immunity to mind-affecting effects does not protect a creature against being affected by your spells that create mindscapes. A mindless creature in a psychic duel uses a psychic attack manifestation identical to its natural attacks, without expending any manifestation points.

Deny Reality (Su): When you enter a mindscape, you (and all your gear) enters the mindscape and your physical body vanishes. When you exit the mindscape, your body appears again in your previous location, or the closest open space if that location is occupied. You leave an invisible link at the spot your body disappeared that can be sensed with detection abilities or a Perception check (DC 20). This link can be dispelled (pulling you out of the mindscape and ending a mindscape you created) or serve as a conduit to enter the mindscape using mindscape door.

Collective Mindscape (Sp): At 5th level, when you voluntarily enter a mindscape (not a binary mindscape) or demiplane, you can bring one additional creature along per 3 psychic levels you have (1 additional creature at level 5, 2 additional creatures at level 6, 3 additional creatures at level 9, and so on). No two targets can be more than 30 ft. apart. These creatures can all take a Will save against the spell you used to enter the mindscape to negate the effect on themselves. A target that saves against this effect can decide to voluntarily come along after seeing which other targets are affected.

Life of the Mind (Ex): At 13th level, you gain regeneration 1 (mind-affecting effects). Damage you take in a mindscape, on the astral plane, or in a demiplane bypasses your regeneration and is not converted to nonlethal damage.

Spirit

Your sense of self is not anchored in your body; you are an immaterial spirit and bodies are to you as clothes are to others.

Phrenic Pool Ability: Charisma.

Bonus Spells: Lock gaze (1st), marionette possession (4th), object possession (lesser) (6th), riding possession (8th), possession (10th), object possession (greater) (12th), scrying (greater) (14th), bilocation (16th), mind swap (major) (18th).

Discipline Powers: You acquire some of the characteristics of a spirit creature, able to dematerialize to possess the bodies of other creatures.

Possessing Spirit (Su) When you use a necromancy effect to possess a host (creature or object), you (and all your gear) enter the host's body and your physical body vanishes. You are ejected to the closest empty square upon expiration of the spell or upon the host's death.

Telepathic Possession (Su) You treat possession spells as if they were mind-affecting, but only for the purpose of which phrenic amplifications they can be used with. When you use a phrenic amplification with a possession spell, the phrenic pool cost is reduced by one (to a minimum of zero).

Ego Targeting (Su) At 5th level, when you begin or end a possession, you can choose to transfer the effect of any spells you have cast that are currently affecting the body you were in to the body you are moving to.

Universialist Spells (Su) At 13th level, when you begin or end a possession, you can choose to transfer the effect of any spells that are currently affecting the body you were in to the body you are moving to, regardless of who cast that spell. You can take a new Will saving throw to end any mind-affecting spell affecting you when you make this transfer, on a success you leave that effect on the mind of the body you are leaving.

Void

Empty you mind to find harmony.

Publisher: Purple Duck Games.

Phrenic Pool Ability: Wisdom.

Bonus Spells: Anticipate peril (1st), darkvision (4th), burst of speed (6th), greater false life (8th), true seeing (10th), transformation (12th), mind blank (14th), moment of prescience (16th), akashic form (18th).

Discipline Powers: Overcome the frailties of physical existence.

Unarmed Strike (Ex): You gain Improved Unarmed Strike as a bonus feat. Your unarmed attacks can be with fists, elbows, knees, and feet. This means that you can make unarmed strikes with his hands full. There is no such thing as an off-hand attack for you when striking unarmed. Your can apply your full Strength bonus on damage rolls for all your unarmed strikes. Your unarmed strike is treated as both a manufactured weapon and a natural weapon for the purpose of spells and effects that enhance or improve either manufactured weapons or natural weapons. Your unarmed strikes deal 1d6 damage (1d4 for a small psychic) and this can be either bludgeoning or nonlethal damage. If you damage a creature in combat with an unarmed strike, you regain a point of phrenic pool. Inflicting damage on helpless creature or on a creature that has fewer Hit Dice than half your character level does not restore psychic pool, and you can gain a maximum number of points per day this way equal to your Wisdom bonus.

Way of The Void (Ex): When unarmored, unencumbered, and not attacking with a manufactured weapon, you add your Wisdom bonus (if any) to your AC. This bonus applies even against touch attacks or when you are flat-footed. You lose these bonuses when immobilized or helpless, when you wear any armor, when you use a shield, or when you carry a medium or heavy load. This makes you an intuitive practitioner of Way of the Void martial arts, see Unarmored and Dangerous, also by Purple Duck Games. All information needed to use this ability is given here.

Evasion (Ex): At 5th level, you can avoid damage from many area-effect attacks. If you succeed at a Reflex saving throw against an attack that normally deals half damage on a successful save, you instead take no damage. Evasion can be used only if wearing no armor. You don't gain the benefit of evasion if you are helpless.

Improved Evasion (Ex): At 13th level, your evasion ability improves. You still take no damage on successful Reflex saving throws against attacks, but henceforth you take only half damage on failed saves. You don't gain the benefit of improved evasion if you are helpless.

Yoga

Control the body to expand the mind.

Publisher: Purple Dock Games.

Phrenic Pool Ability: Wisdom.

Bonus Spells: Abstemiousness (1st), extreme flexibility (4th), burst of speed (6th), freedom of movement (8th), heal (self only) (10th), fluid form APG (12th), walk through space (14th), bilocation (16th), divide mind (18th).

Discipline Powers: You can overcome metal stress through physical exercises.

Contortions (Ex): Escape Artist is a class skills for you, and you add a bonus equal to your psychic level to all Escape Artist checks.

Yogic Concentration (Ex): You can choose to replace a thought or emotion component of a spell you cast with a somatic component, replacing the mental or emotional focus normally required with physical discipline. If you do this, you suffer the same risk of spell failure an arcane caster in your situation would. You can replace either thought or emotion components this way, but not both.

Lasting Self (Ex): At 5th level, when you cast a psychic spell that targets only yourself, that spell has its duration doubled, as if using Extend Spell, but with no increase in spell level or casting time. You do not need to know the Extend Spell feat, and lasting self does not stack with Extend Spell.

Yogic Mastery (Ex): At 13th level, you can replace both thought and emotion components with somatic components when using yogic concentration.
