The girl from Firestarter. This is mostly for curiousity.

I'd see her as possibly a Psion (Kineticist), or a Wilder. And I'd put her in the upper levels, somewhere around 15-ish. Telekinetict-type powers and a couple of Energy powers would fit well, possibly she has some Seer discipline powers.

Oh, and her stats would definately include a lower wisdom. There's at least 1 example of that I can remember from the novel.

Isn't her name Carrie?

Or is this not the Stephen King novel movie or whatever.

I'm talking from the book Firestarter, not Carrie. Stephen King has quite a few psychic novels.

If you don't want to read the whole novel, here's the wiki entry:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firestarter

Using printed material...

I'd say Wilder Pryokinetic, hardly optimal, but Wilder 5 Pyro X would give you decent scaling, toss in practiced manifester.

Control Flames
Energy Ray
Energy Adaptation
for powers known

Don't forget matter agitation.

Bugger.

I meant to drop energy ray and replace it.

That or add 1st level feat hidden talent to get to 4 powers known.

So lets make the movie version (25 point array)
Wilder 1 human
S:8 D:14 C:13 I:12 W:10 Ch: 15

Feats: Hidden Talent (Control Flames), Rapid Metabolism
Power: Matter Agitation

Skills: Autohypnosis +5, Concentration +5, Escape Artist +4, Intimidate +4, Listen +4, Sense Motive +4, Spot +4.

Well, I guess if you want to get technical, at the beginning of the movie she's a commoner 1 with the above feats.

You also could stat her up as a psion with overchannel, but she's cute (Movie)/hot (miniseries) not rocket scientist.
