Awaken Talent

Awaken Talent

Prerequisites: None.

Benefit: Your latent power of psionics flares to life, conferring upon you the designation of a psionic character. As a psionic character, you gain a reserve of 2 power points and can take psionic feats, metapsionic feats, and psionic item creation feats. In addition, when you take this feat, choose two psionic talents (any psionic power with "Talent" as its level). You treat these talents as powers known and can manifest them with a manifester level of 1 as long as you have a mental ability (Int, Wis, or Charisma) score of at least 11. Use your highest mental ability modifier to determine any applicable save DCs. If you have (or later gain) manifester levels from a psionic class, you may instead use the manifester level from that class when manifesting the talents gained from this feat, as well as the appropriate key ability modifier.

Special: The manifester level when manifesting the talents granted from this feat is not a true manifester level and does not count as a manifester level for purposes such as bonus power points, feat, item creation, or prestige class prerequisites.

Notes: This feat counts as the Wild Talent feat for any ability, feat, or class that has Wild Talent as a prerequisite. It is recommended that PCs and important NPCs have access to this feat instead of Wild Talent, while less powerful NPCs only have access to Wild Talent. In this case, if Wild Talent is provided as part of a class progression, PCs and important NPCs should replace it with this feat.
