Template talk:Psionic Power

Okay, I've come as far as I can on the draft Psionic Power infobox. There are features to Spell that are past my ability to hack and I can't see how categories are generated. So I'll open it up to those more skilled in templateering ( Moviesign ).

I've written an example psionic power at User:BadCatMan/mindlink. I don't have a 4e example yet.

I figure we need the following to happen:
 * Everything should be categorised into "...psionic powers" not "...spells".
 * Generation of Category:Major powers (1e), Category:Minor powers (1e), Category:Major powers (2e), Category:Minor powers (2e), Category: powers (2e), Category: powers (3e)
 * Generation of suite of Category: psionic powers (3e) and Category:Nth-level  psionic powers (3e) categories similar to those create by Spell.
 * The 4-edition system should work exactly the same, but simpler: the only variant should be "discipline" (not the same as the counterpart of spell schools used in 2e and 3e). Or we could ignore that and simplify the categories to "psionic powers" to reduce confusion/ambiguity.
 * Similarly, 1e psionic powers are called "disciplines", but again we could ignore that.

The descriptors/keywords are the same in 3e and 4e, but will need one or two new ones.

For Spell, in 1e, 2e, and 3e we have, and in 4e and 5e there are various others. For 4e, these will be the same. I'm not sure what to put for the psionic powers. "Power points" and "Power strength points", or just "Points-based"?

There's a whole thing about psionic attacks and defenses that mimic powers or were updated as powers, which I haven't gotten into yet.

Since there few/no powers on the wiki at this stage, and not that many are referenced in Realmslore, getting it all in place is not exactly urgent. — BadCatMan (talk) 12:12, July 4, 2019 (UTC)
