I would actually like a bit of help. I have recently started delving into psionics, and I am having a bit of an issue understanding it. The reason that I want to learn more about psionics and how to use it is because I have a nasty surprise for my PC's, and there is one guy that is always checking out everything that I throw at them to see how best to defeat it, or correct how I run it, so I pretty much want him to learn a bit of a lesson, that lesson being that the DM always wins. So, every (in-game) day I have one PC roll a percentile, if that PC rolls a 1%, they will be abducted by aliens. I had decided to use psions as a base for which to create these aliens. I want to make my own because I don't much care for the extra-planar beings that already exist in D&D. When I DM, I create everything myself, dungeons, cities, world, everything. However, I have never created my own race before, so I'm having a bit of trouble with it. After all, I haven't DMed in many years.
I figure that the Telepath discipline is closest to what I'm looking for in a race, but I want just as much telekinesis. I want these aliens to not only captivate the PCs' minds, but literally fling them through the air and pin them against a wall if need arises. But, I have no earthly idea how to play psionics.
I am a mean DM, but my PC's like the way that I go about it.See, I'm not afraid to let a PC die. In fact, there have been several new characters drawn up, and the highest level character is only level four. I let them shoot themselves in the foot, and they seem to do it a lot. But I digress, I need some help with an epic level totally unbeatable alien race, just to scare the [expletive] out of these guys.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
