It's a cool idea for fantasy, though, IMHO. Bicameral Mind Telepathy [Mind-Affecting] Level: Psion/wilder 6 Display: Auditory, Mental Manifesting Time: 1 standard action Range: Personal Target: You Duration: 1 round/level Power Points: 11 Your mind splits into two entities, neither truly aware of itself; one part acts as something akin to a deity, and issues commands to its other half. The other part is an unquestioning follower of the commanding half, and its utter, unquestioning faith grants it a semblence of the powers of a cleric or favored soul. While under the effect of this power, you lose the sense of your own consciousness required to manifest psionic powers or activate psionic devices. However, you gain a +4 enhancement bonus to your charisma modifier. You also gain the ability to turn (if neutral or good) or rebuke (if neutral or evil) undead a number of times in the duration of the power equal to your (enhanced) charisma modifier, as a cleric of your manifester level. You also gain temporary spell slots: three 0th level, three 1st level, two 2nd level, and one 3rd level. You gain additional spell slots for a high charisma modifier. You gain the following as spells known, which you may cast spontaneously without preperation: 0: Create Water, Light 1: Doom, Sanctuary 2: Spiritual Weapon 3: Prayer Save DC is equal 10 + spell level + charisma modifier. |

Perhaps a broader spell selection? The turning is balls-aught broken, IF the various co-board tricks for DMM are available. Turn monkey. Not sure how to limit the turning. MenPin shuts off all arcane during it's duration. |
