| '''Psionics''' are the manipulation of metaphysical forces through concentrated effort employing the '''Zona Bovinae'''.<!-- Prior sentence from skrell page. Rewrite if permission is not given to use it !--> The manipulation of these forces is, in practice, the use of influence over a '''Psionic Wake''', also known as the [[Skrell#Nlom|Nlom]]. The only known sentient species with a naturally developed Zona Bovinae are the [[Skrell]]. However, some [[Borer|undiscovered species]] also possess a developed Zona Bovinae, and classified technologies exist which allow for [[Loner|other species]] to influence the Nlom as well.

| All organic life originating from the Spur possesses a Zona Bovinae, and sequentially, can be affected by Psionics.<!-- Prior sentence from skrell page. Rewrite if permission is not given to use it !--> Research into the field has show, however, that strong exposure to Psionics can cause long-lasting damage both mentally and physicially. As such, laws restricting the use of Psionics have been almost universally adopted across the spur. Generally, the unconsented usage of Psionics on an individual is considered '''[[Corporate Regulations|battery or assault]]''', depending on the severity. Those fitted with '''Psionic Receivers''' are considered allowed bodies to send '''Psionic Communications''' to, but any other actions require explicit consent by the receiver.

| The fundamental elements in the use of psionics are '''Psionic Power''' and '''Psionic Abilities'''. Psionic Abilities use up Psionic Power, the latter of which represents, in essence, your Psionic stamina. As abilities are used, you Psionic Power lowers. Over time it will regenerate, however it is not at a rate able to keep up with constant Psionic use. Over use of your Psionic Abilities will lead to '''Psishock''', a state which stuns and damages you through overuse of your Zona Bovinae.

| Keeping track of your Psionic Power is essential, as well as access the '''Psionic Shop''' to acquire Psionic Abilities. On the right of the HUD, a brain icon is present. Just below this icon is a number representing your current Psionic Power. By shift-clicking the brain icon, you can access the Psionic Shop.

| | |
| '''NOTE:''' Skrell cannot get any abilities from the Psionic Shop. All Skrellian Psionic Abilities can be found within the loadout.
| |
| | |
| ==Psionic Ranks== | |
| '''Psionics Ranks''' are a mechanical method for describing how developed and sensitive someone's Zona Bovinae is. These ranks define and limit what abilities can be bought from the Psionic Shop, and also define how many '''Psipoints''' you have to gain Psionic Abilities.
| |
| | |
| The ranks are:
| |
| *'''Sensitive:''' 0 Psipoints. Skrell are at this rank.
| |
| *'''Harmonious:''' 10 Psipoints. Antagonists are at this rank, and some event Skrell.
| |
| *'''Apex:''' 14 Psipoints. This rank is limited to event characters only.
| |
| *'''Limitless:''' 40 points. Admin-only.
| |
| | |
| ==Types of Psionics==
| |
| There are four types of psionic faculties, each having its own separate ranking. It’s entirely possible to be an operant in one area and a grandmaster in another. Each faculty specializes in different areas and has different abilities related to their field of expertise.
| |
| | |
| ===Coercion===
| |
| Coercion is the faculty built around mental interaction, both positive and negative. This faculty contains the secrets of mental assaults, mind reading, and psionic senses.
