Psionic Powers Reduction (Psychometabolic Devotion) MAC: PSP Cost: Range: Preparation Time: Area of Effect: Prerequisites: 6 varies self 0 personal None This power is the reverse of expansion. The psionicist can reduce his body's dimensions along any or all axes: height, length, width, or thickness. The change amounts to 1 foot per PSP spent, until the dimension being affected is 1 foot or less. After that, the psionicist can halve his dimensions each time he spends a PSP. For example, let's assume Magnilda (a dual-class psionicist and warrior maiden) stands 6 feet tall. Five strength points reduce her height to 1 foot. Three more strength points halve her size three times: to 6 inches, then 3 inches, and finally to 1.5 inches. Now let's assume Magnilda only wants to make her arm thin enough to slide through a keyhole. At its thickest point, her arm measures 4 inches across. Three strength points will reduce the thickness of her arm to 1/2 inch (from 4 to 2, then to 1, then to l/2) without altering its length at all. She can now slide her arm through the keyhole and unlock the door from the inside.

Disadvantages Family Curse: Major The character carries the family curse, which rears its ugly self every few generations. Drek is an incurable kleptomaniac. His thieving takes the form of random items seemingly "magically" showing up in his sack or backbpack. Drek is in such a state of denial that he will improvise any sort of unbelievable story to explain how he came to have such items. He cannot decide which items he wants to unconsciously procure. His base base chance is roughly 70%, depending on the circumstancial modifiers. His seemingly phenominal success can be attributed to the fact that he doesn't appear to NEED for anything and also the fact that he is very relaxed when doing the theft (because it is his subconscious actually doing it). His curse most often produces a random unneeded/unuseful item or two a day (less if in a locale that doesn't have anything to steal, like the forest or a desert). Being absolutely confronted with incontrovertable proof that he stole an item brings him to clarity of all the times he has stolen items.. then within a day or two.. his mind finds a reason to reject the claims no matter far fetched. For example, anyone catching the character red-handed will bring him to believe that it is correct, he is a kleptomaniac. But, later his mind will begin to believe that he was fooled somehow.

Character History Drek's was born to the Blackstones, a rather wealthy New Melderyn family. Dispite their money, Drek's parents to not believe in giving away their "hard-earned" family money to their children. Dispite this, they did spare no expense in sending Drek to one of the most prestiged sword training New Melderyn has to offer. Upon graduation, Drek was gifted his grandfather's weapons to prove his way. The weapons were a finely balance matched pair, one an elven longsword and the other an elven dagger. When fighting other swordsman, he often cannot hide his disdain for any sword faux paus or bad habits they exhibit. He is a very driven swordsman and wants to prove himself to everyone else, often challenging those that are far his betters.
