I have 2 (or 7) different class ideas. If i get some posative feedback i'll work on them a bit and come up with actual stats.

The first I was thinking would be either warlock prestige class of a warlockish type of power. This class would focus on Golems. If it were a warlock-ish class, instead of the warlock manifesting his magical power to produce the regular spell-like effects, he would infuse it into (a) mundane or in-animate object(s). I ahvn't put much thought into it past that point.

The other would be psionic classes. In a way it would be even more extreme versions of psionic disciplins. The idea behind it is that it's a character with abilities in only one disipline, such as a telekinetic solely without any sort of telepathy or psychometabolism abilities. And the characters would have extreme flexability within that "discipline" but no access to other areas.

My original idea was a telekinetic and focusing on variations of telekinesis. It would sort of be a core class that is a mix of psion, warlock, argent savant, and master of the unseen hand. some abilities i thought of would be:

crush, flight, divided attention (using telekinesis on multiple objects at a time)

Also, the telekinesis strength would increase each level.

This class exists, it is called the Artificer and is in the ECS (Eberron Campagin Setting). It is not OGL so I can't say anything further really. But it fits what you said, even down to the word infuse.

Simply only take powers known from those diciplines, voiala, you have a highly specialized psychic character who is really versitile within their own dicipline.

Why not take MotUH and Psion or Weilder with just telekinesis powers, I think that would work. I like the idea but I don't find it hard to create since Psions have a limited number of powers known that you can take, just take only powers that fit. A telepath might be a bit tricky though as there isn't really a "telepathy" power that grants you the Telepathy ability many monsters get, a PrC could give you that though if you made a good one or a base race or template for a race.

Better than some high schoolers + I have seen here on the boards. I often see those who speak and write english as a 2nd + language use better grammar than native speakers, I don't think it's a problem unless it makes a post harder to read, allthough it can be very embarrasing to play a rouge! :P ((Rouge is the stuff girls put on their cheeks to make it look like they are blushing, and is a common misspelling of the rogue class which is a stealthy and skilled theif, trapspringer, scout, diplomat, backstabber, thing.))
