Psionicist A psionicist is a person who uses the power of the mind , or psionics to influence objects , rather than magic . Often colloquially referred to as " mind mage s , " they draw their powers from their own consciousness using methods that must be replenished , or can be innate , as in illithid and drow practitioners . Although it is not fully known , this gift is an inherited trait and is subsequently genetic . That being true , it is rare to find a psioniscist in races where psionic powers are not the norm . Despite their rarity , a master psionicist can be quite powerful . Not being held to the need for gestures or spell components a psionicist is awarded the advantage of surprise in many cases , and thus may hold an advantage over a magic user or a priest . However , in many of the humanoid races , manifestation of psionic power can lead to a secondary display that can often give the psionicist away . These displays may include , but are not limited to , visual , auditory and olfactory senses being emitted . As an example , if a mind mage manifests a simple charm , or mind reading power , a low droning sound may be heard . Similarly , a polymorphic manifestation may leave the odor of saffron and ginger . As most of these secondary displays are difficult to observe , most tactics used by psionicists can prove surprising to non - psions . If caught unaware , or in the case of a powerful mind mage very aware , a psionicist can be most powerful . Psionic powers can range from devastating mental attacks that dominate an opponent , to physical constructs and a fate link that can inflict damage linked between individuals . That being said , such manifestations can take a great toll . Inate practitioners such as illithids and select drow can grow weary and unfocused if they over - extend themselves . Practitioners of other races can deplete their store of power in short order if unskilled and will have need to replenish those powers .

The handle could then be combined with any number of heads in any combination . Each head added its own kind of damage and to the magical strength of the weapon , and once all were attached , the flail also gained a chance to slow opponents . Later , a further two heads for the flail could be found , and attached by Cespenar , doing electrical and poison damage and further increasing the weapon ' s potency .
