Leaving Yourself Behind

Leaving Yourself Behind (minor) by Stone Gargoyle

"Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain..."

The hero can create a psychic image/illusion which causes others in range to see the hero in a specified location even if the hero has already left.

1.Psychic Encryption: The hero creates a psychic echo of his or her energy and presence which he leaves at the location where he activates the power. The psychic presence will seem to be a real person to those encountering it unless they make a successful saving throw vs. psionics (16 or better for non-psionics, 14 or better for latent psionics, 12 or better for master psionics, ME bonus applies). This affects all those within 30 feet of the echo, plus 5 feet per level. If failing the saving throw, anyone seeing the echo will believe it is really the person, able to see, feel and smell it as such, and totally become oblivious to the presence of the actual person. The psychic echo will remain for 2d4 melee rounds, after which those seeing it will no longer detect it and, if still in the area of effect, realize they have been fooled. The hero can do this with other images as well, as this does not have to appear to be the person projecting it. The hero can set up actions for the image to perform. Creating an unmoving image expends a single actiion while setting up actions for it to perform requires an additional action, during which time the hero may be prone to attack.

2.Other bonuses:

+2d6 to ISP if applicable

+4 to save vs. psionic attack and mind control

+2 vs. Horror Factor

+1d4 ME
