hey mates,
i've got myself a Telepath in my groups current campaign and as luck would have it, we're up against a cult that loves themselves some undead. for now (we're all about 3rd level) its not so bad since about half of our excursions are only peripherally related to the undeath cult (goblin raiders/bandits under the cult's loose employ mainly) but i know the time is going to come where we're going to hit some lichs/vampires/mummies/other intelligent undead.
so i'm looking for assistance on powers/feats that will allow me to contribute in those fights.
Character build/concept: Telepath->Thrallherd (gonna make the thrall psychokinetic, lotsa energy powers to make up for my near total lack of direct damage), he's totally into social skills and powers, mainly i'd like some powers that would buff my party a bit, and/or feats that would let me affect intelligent undead with my powers. i'm not looking to be superpowered, just useful when we inevitably start hitting undead/otherwise mind affecting immune enemies. our campaign is kinda a mix of low magic and medium magic and progression is fairly slow (i hit 3rd level at session 10-12) so i don't think i can count on getting above 12th level in this campaign, and that might not be for a year, maybe 2.
i'm currently working out of the SRD and Tome of Feats 2 (i think my group as a whole has just about every book but thats what i've got with psionics in it). also, i really don't want to cheese my way to power, i'd rather just be a badass party face if cheese is the only option.
current powers: Mind Thrust, Psionic Charm Person, Mindlink, Empathy, Demoralize, Psionic Suggestion, Read Thoughts.
Current Feats: Psicrystal Affinity, Psionic Body, Psionic Talent, Psionic Focus
