What do psionicists wear, /tg/?
Wizards wear pointy hats and robes.
Clerics wear priestly vestments and holy symbols.
Thieves wear hooded cloaks and black leather
Fighters wear armor.
What what do the weird mind-magic guys wear?
Monk robes. Monks wear nothing. Barbarians rip their skin off regularly, like a retarded snake.
Leather pants.
>>44411654
Third-Eye patches.
>>44411716
Also tinfoil hats, since it would increase conductivity and reception.
blindfolds and circlets
>>44411654
The Corps is Mother
The Corps is Father
>>44411654
They wear nothing and convince other people that they're wearing pants.
>>44411654
>weird mind magic
I thought it was a tad obvious, they'd wear stillsuits
>>44411920
That's LSD powers, not mind powers.
>>44411914
my psion did something like that, only he didn't have a body and went around convincing people that he did
>>44411914
My bard did the opposite once. Got into a nudist colony wearing all his clothes.
>>44411654
Whatever the fuck they feel like since their abilities aren't affected by motion.

It looks like he's wearing a butt for a mask and has one of those bullshit healing bracelets on his neck.
It's a bit overdesigned for my taste.

What do those webms have to do with anything?
Also gemstone and crystal studded tight clothing, because mind chakras lines or something.
>>44411654
They don't actually wear anything. They just trick people into thinking they do
>>44413229
The brown girl is a psychic. She takes off the third-eye patch on her head to release her psychic powers that can both teleport the robot, fuck with physics, and is the robot's power source.
tongue-pinchers to still their voice, blinders to cover the eye, thorned manacles to keep them slow and pained and belled mufflers for the ears to distract and deafen.
>>44413292
Oh, I thought she was taking off a crash helmet. You really couldn't tell unless someone told you that ahead of time from those.
Mine wore a robe and carried a staff, because magic was rare enough in the setting it was just "How I do magic", with no further wisdom into the various classes and formations.
>>44413370

I watched Gunbuster for the first time in decades last night.
I had never noticed that they had the katakana for "i" backwards at the end. Good touch.
Robes, tattoos, circlets, and crystal jewelry.

Diebuster. Sequel to Gunbuster.
Watch Gunbuster first. Gunbuster put Gainax on the map.

Thanks. Will do. I was just thinking: "Gee, that looks like someone tried to make FlCl an anime about giant robots..."
Skintight bodysuits.
>>44414082
The same director and studio made FLCL like two years prior to this. That's why the brown girl looks like kitsurubami. It has a lot of parallels with Gainax's other works.
Take Dix-Neuf (#19), its old war wounds parallel the Eva-01's major injuries. Spike through the right eye going out the back of the head from Sachiel, lost left arm complete with grafted replacement from Zeruel. While not an injury Dix-Neuf replaces his Degeneracy Generator by tearing it out of another and absorbing it into himself, like an S2 Organ.

Whatever they feel like. Their power comes from within, an expression of their self and will. If anything they wear the things that define themselves, mementos and things of personal significance.
Or you can just go with crystals and shiny stuff.

>>44414082
Basically FLCL was Gainax giving the animation Studio and deputy director for End of Evangelion a project of their own as a sort of "cleanser" after working on End of Evangelion, the same crew then did Diebuster when the 20th anniversary of Gunbuster came around.
>>44414182
Not entirely, Dix-Neuf eyepatch is based on Coach from the first Gunbuster as is the ring of sticky out bits around the left arm (which is based on the brace on Coach's walking stick), the degeneracy generator is another reference to the end of gunbuster when the inverse happens and Gunbuster Machine 2 tears its chest open and shoves a degeneracy generator into Gunbuster Machine 3 so it can finish its mission (in eva we never see Eva-1 insert the S2 organ into itself, instead we get a distant shot of what is implied to be Eva-1 physically devouring an angel to consume its S2 Organ). And while the Jaw line is likely a reference to Eva-1's, it's coloration is a reference to the admiral/captain of the excellion from gunbuster 1.
...I also suspect the giant rocket-booster trenchcoat it wears is also a reference to Jotaro's coat from Jojo part 3, seeing as Part 3 heavily "borrowed" the character design of old Joseph and Polnareff from Gunbuster, it's likely also why it also transforms into a giant fencing sabre and has a baseball theme for its other weaponry.
>>44411654
Gasmasks! Remember, while Dark Sun is now known as the "dying earth" setting, it was originally the "psionics" setting for D&D.
>>44413424
To be fair that anime does have fairly lengthy "rips off her sticker and goes Topless" sequences in the first episode, and that wasn't one of them.

Coach used the crutch on his right side, not left.
Also the way Nono is carried off by getting her clothes caught on the space monster parallels when the same thing happened to Naota in FLCL.
>>44415417
They made a kinda crappy Arcana about it.
If you really want Psionics, I would suggest looking for some of the better Dark Sun 5e stuff.
>>44415553
It's a bancho coat. Lots of punk characters wear them. Including Metal Bat from OPM.
The Dix-Neuf revoltech even came with a metal nail bat.
>>44415690
I only have the diebuster movie, not the ova.
>>44411654
brains
>>44415690
Gas masks go well with the stillsuits suggested earlier.
Considering that environmental conditions have a tendency to break a psion's concentration, it must be especially important to shield the party's psion from the elements.
>>44411654
Time. Force, dimensions, the body! Nature, the Seasons, the Mind, Time! Did I mention Time? Minerals. Vegetables. Mexican Food. Books, Papier-mâché, ball bearings! Ben Wa Balls, mmm. The Partridge Family, bags of rice, shoelaces, Kleenex.
And, mostly, for some reason, crystals. I'm sorry about those.
>>44416680
Go away, joe rogan. You have too many brain injuries.
Oriental clothing.
>>44416726
Do I? The best part about being a psionicist is, I can read your mind. And you? You're a dirty little monkey, aren't you?

>>44416903

>>44416903
As the person who posted it, I have no trouble admitting that yes, it is shitposting of fairly low quality. I'm just quoting an old web series of D&D parodies at people. It's like if I went around making posts that consisted entirely of Monty Python and the Holy Grail quotes, except more obscure.

i've never known anyone who does that who isn't on the spectrum, especially the thinking they're obscure part.
>>44416977
Fucking holiday-fags.
>>44416995
Psions wearing living clothing could be neat. Instead if magical enchanted clothing and armor augmenting their powers, it's living minds working in tandem with their master.
A fully kitted out psion in livingleather is in effect a one man cabal.
>>44417069
The akashic magic classes from pathfinder are very similar.
>>44417095
Isn't that basically just Magic of Incarnum with the serial numbers filed off?
Incarnum and psionics synergize really well. There's actually a couple of combos that give you infinite power points!
>>44417155
I'm not familiar with that.
I know you can create magic clothes that act as a sort of spell slot.
>>44417095
Kind of, yeah. Except instead of intangible veils, you've fleshshaped some bio-armor I guess.
Not really at all familiar with akashic stuff. Looks fairly interesting though. Having psionics work on it's principles could be neat.
>>44417196
>Kind of, yeah. Except instead of intangible veils, you've fleshshaped some bio-armor I guess.
Oh that's Synthesist Summoner.
>>44417195
Yeah, and you can invest essentia into them and bind them to chakras.
That's Magic of Incarnum, one of the later books for 3.5 D&D. I guess akashic magic is the Pathfinder version of that.
>>44417035
Oh, don't worry, I'm here all year round. I'm just usually not on narcotics, so I usually have the self control to stop myself from posting.
Your loss that I'm catastrophically ill this winter.
>>44417212
You can kind of do that with Shaper psions in 3.5.
There's actually a feat in Complete Psionics that lets you gain the special abilities of an Astral Construct whenever you would would create one using the Astral Construct power.
I've also seen some people argue that you should be able to create a hollow Astral Construct around yourself and ride around in it like a mech.
>>44417212
I'm beginning to think you're making this stuff up now.
...oh for fuck's sake, you can summon outsiders to wear as armor? Wasn't there a sentai or something that had that mechanic?
I was going for more, psionic bioartificer. But that works too.
>>44417291
>I'm beginning to think you're making this stuff up now.
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/summoner/archetypes/paizo---summoner-archetypes/synthesist
>A synthesist summons the essence of a powerful outsider to meld with his own being. The synthesist wears the eidolon like translucent, living armor. The eidolon mimics all of the synthesist’s movements, and the synthesist perceives through the eidolon’s senses and speaks through its voice, as the two are now one creature.
Yes. It is basically Power Rangers and that was how i roleplayed the one time i made it. I talked the GM into killing me in my sleep cause hoo boy was it overpowered. Almost ruined the game, but it was fun to summon the eidolon with the "IT'S MORPHIN TIME"
>>44417229
I still have the book and it's still badass, I wish it had caught on but I guess it got released in the waning years of 3.5's life cycle.
What makes it worst is when I first looked at it I thought it was stupid but then as I read it I started loving it.
If I ever had to run 3.5 it'll be that, psionics and Bo9S.
Perfet game right there.
Robes and light armor.

I misread your post, kindly ignore my redundant citation.
>>44417355
I ran that as a campaign shortly!
Epic 6 with Tome of Battle, Magic of Incarnum, and Expanded Psionics Handbook, along with Stormwrack, Frostburn, and Standstorm, and the Player's Handbook banned.
It was pretty fucking great.

I've mostly been ignoring Pathfinder stuff since I think the people at Paizo are a bunch of SJW cunts and I resent them for fanning the flames of the 4E edition wars, but some of the DSP stuff looks interesting.
Can you tell me more about Dreamscarred Press?
>>44417470
Oh yeah, I personally like the Shadow Caster even if it's not the best class in there (certainly orders better then the shitty Truenamer)
I want to find a way to port Shadow Caster and some of the other shadow classes to 5e
Jack off crystals.
>>44414475
And that's not the end of the blackhole hijinks.
>>44417473
They converted 3.5 Psionics to Pathfinder with minimal fuckery(only need to ban Astral Seed and Psychic Reformation) and remade the Tome of Battle as Path of War. They also ported over Incarnum and are currently play testing. Their shit is so good because they actual listen to feed back and keep close to the community. They also made some new Psionic classes(not as good as the ones ported, but some definitely got an upgrade i.e Soulknives).

Dude, they only recharge when you're jacking off with a bro. You can't solo charge, that would be ridiculous.
>>44417704
Nice!
It sounds like they use open playtesting as something more than a publicity stunt. That's something I can respect.

I guess if two people both took it and were doing like a double-dutch runner as a free action, you could stay perpetually charged.

Bene Gesserit powers don't necessarily need spice, as far as I'm aware.
Only reverend mothers need Spice(The Water of Life)
>>44417281
Even if it's not hollow, you can always just have it be an open-cockpit mech. Whichever way you go with it, you should be able to do mounted combat on an Astral Construct, at any rate.
I've always wanted to try doing a Gurren Lagann spiral energy user as a wilder with mounted combat feats, Astral Construct, and various offensive buff powers. The wilder is just such a perfect thematic fit for spiral energy.
>>44418208
The funny thing is that DSP is currently playtesting "Psionic mech" classes/
>>44416156
i thought it was okay except for the fact that it didn't get anything beyond like level 4 or 6 or something
I think it has potential at least.
>>44417212
>>44417392
it's the synthesist summoner, minus the bits no-one wanted to play that archetype for, with actual competent design.
thanks, dsp. you make pathfinder bearable

I'm still not sure why synthesist summoner is supposed to be so broken, really. Regular summoner gets the same melee monster eidolon, and breaks action economy by getting to cast spells while their pet ripantears.
>>44418187
Bene Gesserit powers are mostly physiological though, aren't they? Tone of voice inducing muscle paralysis and w/e.
>>44426126
Psychological difference between a pet doing it all, and a player doing it. I fully agree that base is more broken, but it lacks the morale effect.
>>44426882
Pretty much all brain hacks yes, but they use the spice to transfer memories and perfected techniques so that it's possible to learn them in a single lifetime.
>>44427915
Oh alright. I thought only Reverend Mothers got the water of life treatment, while princesses and concubines etc "only" got all the amazing meditation and voice stuff. It's been ages since I read the book, though.
>>44411654
Normal clothing appropriate for a middle-class person in the city / nation they live in. In the last D&D game I played, psychic powers and magic didn't mingle. You couldn't detect or dispel psionics with magic and vice versa. Psionics was also very rare, literally one in a million people had the mental fortitude and inherent talent to become a fully-fledged manifester.
My character didn't carry weapons or armour, had no magic items, and only had a small satchel filled with mundane herbs and poultices. We had a lot of urban combat and he would always pretend to be just another innocent bystander while helping the party secretly with buff powers and remote healing. 90% of encounters he wasn't targeted as an enemy, and the other 10% were during dungeon crawls where the 'gimmick' didn't work.
It worked out really well. The rest of the party was Tier 3-4, so I de-powered my character by never getting magic items or serious 'upgrades', instead giving them my share of the gear and keeping some money for my retirement fund. The Barbarian and Gunslinger got to be badasses, taking centre stage during combat and raking in the fame and glory. The Alchemist went full Artificer and had a million toys to play with, which made him really happy. My character was satisfied with doing good behind the scenes and not getting stabbed, plus he retired with half a million gold in the bank and his own private island to set up a school for gifted youngsters.
