Psychic abilities can manifest in a number of ways. One of those ways is through a psionic, or mental, connection to the Weave. Individuals born with this ability call themselves Mystics.

Expanded Spell List

You choose from an expanded list of spells when you learn a sorcerer spell. The following spells are added to the sorcerer spell list for you.

Mystic Expanded Spells

Psionics

Psi Points

Your manifest your psionic abilities from a pool of psi points. The amount of psi points you have is equal to your level multiplied 3, to a maximum of 30.

Psionic Spellcasting

You cast your sorcerer cantrips purely with your mind. When you cast a sorcerer spell of first level of higher, you can expend a number of psi points equal to the spell's level to cast it purely with your mind. When casting a spell in this way, you require no material components and you do not need to perform verbal or somatic components. However, you cannot cast spells of 6th level or higher that require material components with a gold cost in this way. Metamagic requires an intense focus on the Weave and, thus, cannot be used with spells cast purely with your mind.

Mystic Discipline

Exploring and developing one's abilities typically requires choosing a discipline and training in a specific psionic technique. Every mystic is trained in one of five disciplines: the Avatar, the Awakened, the Immortal, the Nomad, or the Wu Jen. Each discipline has a list of spells that, if they are known spells for you, you do not need to spend psi points on them to cast them purely with your mind.
