Power Score: Int -1
Cost: 30
Discipline: Psychoportation
Range: Short

With this power, the psionicist can teleport a creature against its will to a pocket dimension and hold it there. The pocket dimension is a featureless area with a benign environment – it may be hot or cold, dark or light, but not so much that it will cause injury. After 1 round, the banished creature makes saving throw each round to determine if it returns from banishment. The creature does this until it passes the save, or until the duration expires. Friendly creatures are banished for the entire duration.

With dimension door, the psionicist temporarily bends spatial dimensions to allow him to move from one location to another nearly instantaneously. The Psion is also able to hold open the gate, as long as he has the power to do so, allowing others to use it. This is a constant drain on his reserves as long as the gate is open.
Summon Planar Creature
Power Score: Int -4
Cost: 15
Discipline: Psychoportation
Range: Short
Area of Effect: 1 Creature
Duration: 1 turn / level
Save: None
Prerequisites: Dimension Door
Required For: None
This power allows the psionicist to reach into another plane, grab whatever he happens to find there, and teleport it to his own plane. If the creature is intelligent, the psionicist might reason with it. However, the creature may fly into a murderous rage when it discovers its plight. Once a creature has been summoned any subsequent manifestation of this power will not bring a second creature, rather it will immediately remove the existing one (no saving throw).
Summon Planar Energy
Power Score: Int

A character with this ability can summon energy from the inner planes and use it to attack his enemies. Some planes are more useful than others for this purpose.
Fire opens a portal to the elemental plane of fire itself, scorching everything within 12 feet for 3d8 points of damage (reflex save for half). Negative energy inflicts 3d12 points of damage on a single target that then must make a fortitude save or also be drained of 1 level. Positive energy inflicts 3d12 points of damage to a single target. If it is used against undead they must make a fortitude save or be destroyed. Salt creates a 10-foot radius area of utter dehydration. It inflicts 4d4 points of damage (save for half) on all creatures within who must also make a reflex save or lose 4 points of strength. Water fills the lungs of one target with water. They begin to drown and will die within 4 rounds if they fail a saving throw at the beginning of each round.
