====== Psioniques ======

**Psioniques**, mainly known as the **Invisible Art** or //**ki//** and colloquially known also as **mind magic**, is practiced by [[Psion|psions]] and others.

======Practitioners======

The most notable psionicists belong to the powerful [[illithide]] race (which has earned the nickname "Flagelleur mental" due to its considerable psionic powers, and appetite for brain matter), possessed of a communal intelligence.

Few members of any other race besides [[Aboleths]], [[Inspiré]] and their [[Quorien]] masters, and [[Kalashtar]] are psionicists.
======Nature of Psioniques======
Use of psionic power does not require spell components. Psionic power can be more quickly activated than either [[divine magic|divine]] or [[arcane magic|arcane]] magic. Psionicists must possess formidable mental discipline in order to use their psionic powers.

Although it has never been explicitly detailed, the rangel of Psionic powers is far smaller than the rangel of divine and arcane powers. However, psionicists do not need to "remember" their powers for later use; they can be called up at any time.
======Disciplines======

Psionic powers are known as disciplines. Known disciplines include:

*The opening of dimensional doorways.
*The emission of psionic blasts of force.
*The ability to dominate those with weaker minds by force of will.
*Telekinesis.
*The ability to walk through solid things.
*[[Telepathy]].
*The ability to absorb many "hits" (physical or magical) and then release their power at once.
*The ability to "excite" the latent energy within an object, causing it to explode.
*The ability to travel in astral form to the [[Plan Astral]].
