psi-healer healing touch modifications?

Unread post by t0m »

in our fantasy campaign we have a psi healer. he just reached level 7. he gets to pick a new psionic ability every level and hes starting to run out of abilities he wants for his character. he asked me if he can take healing touch again, and be able to 'dual wield' it (heal 2 people with one action). i liked this idea and told him that if he takes it again(3rd time) ill give him an 'aura of healing' style move where anyone in range gets a healing touch.

what do you guys think? too powerful? what about isp cost?

Out of the rules, but acceptable. increase the ISP cost per time taken. (Twice is x2, three times is x3 cost, ect.)

Wow, this I like. Surprised I never thought of it, to be honest.

Sounds like he/she has their work cut out for them.

well ... since someone on here already compared a Gypsy Gifted ... to be an equivalent or a near equivalent to a Psi healer ... should i bother sticking down the gypsy magic i have almost finished? .. its used to 'heal' MDC creatures ... since the gypsy is stuck to healing SDC and HP only

*should find it someplace again.

Sub-par GM wrote:This might be a bit powerfull but maybe at the third choice it could be a healing aura or if you concentrate on one person it could affect them the round you use it and then agian the next round. Or after the initial effect how about 2 pts healed per round per level of the healer?


do you mean the healer could remotely heal someone if he was concentrating/meditating? or deliver a 'heal bomb' that continues to heal the person for a few rounds after the initial touch? both could add interesting elements to combat. ill pass them by our healer :)
