I was imagining a retool of the Erudite from 3.5.
Maybe a Wizard who has natural psionic power and instead of just letting the powers come like a Psion but instead seeks out the powers and how they work, while still taking part in the study of magic.
What I am curious about is what would the powers per day be, maybe the spell slots the wizard chart uses?
What would the power points be, maybe the psions power point chart?
I was thinking he would learn powers naturally and of course can learn powers like a normal wizard through power stones or other psionic beings. But also be able to learn powers from Scrolls and magic users up to one level lower then his highest power level.
Now his powers per day limit would count for his learned spells too. So if he can use 4 level 1 powers/spells he can only use a total of 4 level one abilities a mix of either powers or spells but he cannot use 4 of each.
I was also thinking a restriction. If you use a power it is locked into that slot but you can use it as long as you have power points to fuel it. However, after the first time you use the power or spell. You treat it every other time as a level higher.
So mind thrust would cost 1 power point the first time you manifest it but every time after you would treat it as a lvl 2 power and cost 3 points. a level 2 power would then cost 5 points after 1 use. a lvl 3 power costs 7 points the same as 4th level powers.
