Editing Psionics (section)

== How Psionics operate ==
Psionic characters will have an extra button on the character ''Manage'' panel in-game. This button provides a drop-down list showing the ''Abilities Groups'' as headings with the actual ''Abilities'' listed under each heading.  For example, a character with no specialisms will have a ''Fortitude'' heading with the three 3 '''Personal Fortitude''' abilities listed under it.

Whenever you attempt a psionic ability, you must decide how much effort to use (ranging from 0 to 100, default 30).  The more effort you use, the more it will weaken the character for the rest of the combat (via concussion hits) but also the more likely that the psionic ability will be successfully carried out. (The psionic level, activity level, and current stress of the character are factors in this too).

A badly failed attempt at a psionic ability may temporarily stun or even knock out a Psi character.
