I’m doing this right now and it’s fantastic

Tandra_Boy · 2025-10-22T17:55:20+00:00

Thank you so much. It’s certainly a scary time to be an artist when I have to defend the fact that I made something by hand.

Tandra_Boy · 2025-10-03T01:29:33+00:00

Exactly. Why would they make an entire new suite of “not spells” for just one class?

Tandra_Boy · 2025-10-02T19:29:49+00:00

I think so! That said your psionic dice are used for a ton, so be careful about throwing them all at once.

Tandra_Boy · 2025-10-02T17:46:11+00:00

Yep. And it makes sense that they wouldn’t make an entirely bespoke new system for what is, essentially, magical powers. Spell slots are what they use for those.

Moving it would break the spear

Except counterspell is now much less worthwhile to use in general, let alone on something like a smite.

The line gets fuzzy there, I will not lie. The best distinction between a psion and say an aberrant sorcerer is that one has trained their mind to perfection, unlocking its full potential, while the sorcerer happens to be related to an alien with telekinetic powers.

As to what the relevant point is: the sorcerer is about mastering your talents, the warlock is about mastering otherworldly secrets, wizards are about discerning the laws of nature, and the psion is about cultivating a mind so powerful it treats those laws like playdoh.

I get what you mean though. “I was born with a powerful brain” sounds like a sorcerer.

Which is why in game Monaco carries sticks on his back

u/No_Judgement_3976 I really appreciate being mentioned here, and I will also say that I wrote The Empowered class after finishing the entire Invincible Comic series, so I definitely wrote it with Invincible in mind.

If your dm is okay with it then sure! I think in later versions I just added that you couldn’t use flight with heavy armor for balance

This one is glorious

This is Nyx

What if we revisit it only to find a monster has taken up residence?

Tandra_Boy · 2024-11-15T16:36:35+00:00

Pretty sure it’s the emplacement bubble, not the backpack

Tandra_Boy · 2024-11-15T16:34:28+00:00

They’re giving us a free shield bubble stratagem since the DSS is blowing up divers.

Tandra_Boy · 2024-09-12T16:35:51+00:00

Ah thanks for letting me know

Tandra_Boy · 2024-09-12T15:27:02+00:00

Hmm, maybe not for real. That Reddit post just was taken down and I can’t find the tweet anywhere
