S OCIETY M IND

“Care to share your thoughts?”

- Jaieth, human society mind

of their hive mind paradigm onto the rest of the

world.

Alignment: Society minds tend most often to

be neutral in both ethical and moral perspectives;

the constant view of the larger trends leaves many

society minds impartial and aloof. This is not

always the case, though. Good society minds seek

to harmonize with the ﬂow of others’ thoughts and

bring all conﬂicts to a constructive resolution, while

evil society minds leech off the mental powers of

the communities they live in and feel that their

powers and unique position within the greater mind

marks them as obviously superior.

A network is a pattern that naturally arises

whenever multiple objects interact with each

other with shared consequences. All organic life

is a network of such patterns, blood and ﬂesh and

wood and earth working unconsciously towards

the goal of survival. Even unliving things, the

dancing stars in the sky and the slow geologic

gathering of mountains follow certain guidelines.

Thinking beings follow patterns far more complex,

of emotions, dreams and ideas. These networks,

and the mind they form, are what power a society

mind.

GAME RULE INFORMATION

Society minds have the following game statistics.

Alignment: Any

Hit Die: d6

Starting Gold: 4d4 x 10 (100 gp)

S tarting Age: Complex (as psion)

MAKING A SOCIETY MIND

Society minds must choose their powers known

every day after resting and meditating on the greater

pattern of things. Like a wilder, a society mind

has very few powers known, but a society mind

can change his powers known from day to day. A

society mind uses power points and can augment

his powers like any other manifesting class.

In addition, society minds also have the unique

ability to enter into a worldthought network with

other beings, through which the society mind can

strengthen his allies, as well as weaken and subvert

his foes.

Abilities: Wisdom determines what level of

psionic power a society mind can manifest, how

hard his powers are to resist, and his bonus power

points per day. Charisma is useful to a few society

mind abilities and a number of society mind skills,

and a society mind needs Constitution for more hit

points.

Races: Society minds tend to show up mostly

in the social races, or in the nomadic races that

travel and see many lands. Humans and halﬂings,

qualifying on both accounts, produce numerous

society minds. Dromites make great society minds,

as the power of the class is often a simple extension

CLASS SKILLS

The society mind’s class skills are Autohypnosis,

Bluff, Craft, Concentration, Diplomacy, Gather

Information, Heal, Intimidate, Knowledge

(psionics), Knowledge (history), Knowledge

(local), Listen, Perform, Profession, Psicraft, Sense

Motive, Speak Language, and Survival.

Skill Points at 1st level: (4 + Int modiﬁer) x 4

Skill Points at Each Additional Level: 4 + Int

modiﬁer

CLASS FEATURES

Your psionic powers and your worldthought

network are your most vital abilities. Helping your

allies - whether by enhancing them or making your

enemies weaker - is what you do best.

Weapon and Armor Proﬁciency: Society minds

are proﬁcient with all simple weapons and light

armor. Armor does not, however, interfere with the

manifestation of powers.

Power Points/Day: A society mind’s ability to

manifest powers is limited by the power points he

has available. His base daily allotment of power

Complete Society Mind

points is given on Table 1: The Society Mind. In

addition, he receives bonus power points per day

if he has a high Wisdom score. His race may also

provide bonus power points per day, as may certain

feats and items.

Powers Known: A society mind begins play

knowing one society mind power of your choice at

the time. At every even-numbered class level after

1st, he unlocks the ability to know more powers at

any given time.

Choose the powers known from the society

mind power list. ( Exception: The feats Expanded

Knowledge and Epic Expanded Knowledge do

allow a society mind to learn powers from the lists

of other classes.) A society mind can manifest any

power that has a power point cost equal to or lower

than his manifester level.

The total number of powers a society mind can

manifest in a day is limited only by his daily power

points.

A society mind never needs to prepare powers

ahead of time; he draws them from his mind when

needed. When a society mind recovers his daily

power points after resting, he may choose to rotate

one or more powers he knows for new ones. These

powers must always be chosen from the society

mind power list, and the maximum number of

powers the society mind may know at any one time

in this fashion is listed on Table 1: The Society

Mind. If a society mind learns a power through

other means, such as the Expanded Knowledge

feat or psychic chirurgery , this power is known

in addition to his normal powers. He may never

exchange it for another power from the society

mind list when he chooses his powers known, and

it doesn’t count against his limit of powers known

at any one time.

The Difﬁculty Class for saving throws against

society mind powers is 10 + the power’s level + the

society mind’s Wisdom modiﬁer.

Maximum Power Level Known: A society

mind begins play with the ability to learn 1st-level

powers. As he attains higher levels, he may gain

the ability to master more complex powers.

can, roughly, sense the presence of each member,

although beyond telling if such a creature is still a

member, this has no mechanical beneﬁt until higher

levels (see telepathy and network sense, below).

A society mind can manifest certain powers

through his worldthought network. If a society

mind power speciﬁes one or more willing targets

(or is harmless) and has a range greater than

personal, he can manifest this power on a member

of his network regardless of the range of the actual

power. All other non-range restrictions still apply.

He may also manifest any power with the Network

descriptor this way, regardless of their actual ranges

or targets. If he is capable of manifesting powers

or casting spells from a different class (as is the

case for a multiclass society mind), any compatible

spell or power with a range greater than touch can

also be used through the network.

If a member of the network dies, the member is

removed from the network and the society mind

must make a Fortitude save (DC 15) or lose 10 XP

and 1 power point for every Hit Die of the fallen

member.

The society mind must maintain a power point

reserve of at least one point to maintain the network.

If he does not, the network and all attendant beneﬁts

end immediately.

A society mind’s allies are his greatest asset

To learn or manifest a power, a society mind must

have a Wisdom score of at least 10 + the power’s

level.

Worldthought Network (Su): A society mind

can connect willing minds through an internal

network that strengthens their psychic bonds. As a

standard action, a society mind can join up to his

class level in willing targets into his network. The

society mind must have line of sight to each target,

each target must have a Wisdom score of at least 1,

and all targets must be within range (see Table 3-

4). A society mind’s network can never have more

members than his class level. The society mind is

always considered a member of his own network,

and does not count against this limit.

The society mind can choose to remove a

member as a free action on his turn, and any

member can voluntarily leave the network as

a free action on their turn. Any member whose

Wisdom drops to zero or who moves out of range

of the network is automatically removed. If a

member enters a null psionics ﬁeld , the network

link is suppressed until that member leaves the

ﬁeld. A member who leaves the network for any

reason immediately loses any and all beneﬁts they

may have gained from being a member. A society

mind is aware of the status of his network and

Cooperative Healing (Su): Whenever a willing

network could regain lost hit points or ability

damage, that member may choose to redirect any

or all of that healing to one or more other willing

members of the network as a free action. This can

transfer instantaneous healing (such as a cure light
