Superior Psicrystal

==Superior Psicrystal Forms==
*Prerequisite ML 3rd; Skills Knowledge (Engineering) 3 ranks
*Note This superior psicrystal form is an adaptation of the Psi-Core Upgrade feat.
A psi-core is a techno-psionic construct programmed with the mind of an advanced Automaton. It has the capability to interface with and mimic high technology by configuring itself into various modes of operation. It has all the properties of a typical psicrystal, plus the following ability.
:
:At 1st and 4th level, and every four levels thereafter, the psi-core unlocks one of the following configurations of its owner's choice. As a standard action, it may assume an unlocked configuration, or become unconfigured. Some configurations require a psi-core to attach to an item, which it must be touching when it assumes that configuration. If the psi-core is attached to an item that becomes wrecked or destroyed, it takes damage equal to 1/2 its hitpoints and becomes unconfigured.
:*Combat Interface As part of assuming this configuration, the psi-core attaches itself physically to a manufactured weapon, which must be unattended or in the possession of a willing creature. While in this configuration, the psi-core can use the aid another action to affect any attacks made with the weapon. If the weapon uses ammunition, the psi-core can psionically create ammunition for it, automatically reloading it if necessary. It can produce a number of pieces of standard ammunition this way equal to (1 per 3 levels of its owner per round). This ammunition crumbles into nothingness after the attack is made, or if it is removed from the weapon. The psi-core cannot create ammunition for energy weapons. Finally, if the weapon is wielded by the psi-core's owner, they may use the weapon to deliver any touch power they manifest, including in place of the free touch attack granted by manifesting a touch power. The weapon's type (melee or ranged) must match that of the touch power to be delivered.
:*Mainframe While in this configuration, the psi-core grants you a +2 circumstance bonus to all Intelligence-based skill and ability checks while it is within close range of you. Additionally, it can record audio and/or video of its perceptions, up to a number of minutes equal to its Intelligence score. It can share these records with you telepathically, or project them for any creature to see.
:*Omnitool When the psi-core assumes this configuration, choose one skill in which its owner has three ranks. It serves as a masterwork tool for that skill. The chosen skill can be changed as a standard action. Additionally, the psi-core gains a fly speed of 45 ft. (poor), and a ranged touch attack with a 10 ft. range. This attack deals 1d6 points of its owner's active energy type.
:*Operating System As part of assuming this configuration, the psi-core attaches itself to a technological device. The device must be unattended or in the possession of a willing creature. As long as it is in close range of its owner, the psi-core may operate the device for them, using its own statistics. If the device is in use by a creature, it grants that creature a +2 circumstance bonus to any checks made to operate the device, including driving checks if the device is a vehicle. Additionally, if the device is powered by a battery, the psi-core may convert 2 of its owner's power points into an hour of operating time for the device.
