Betazoid, Trill, Vulcan, very rare humans, and other alien races with psionic ability- in the star trek universe has any race pursued some form of "psionic" augmentation technology?
There was a TNG episode that featured a Vulcan artifact that inflicted harm to those with a hostile intent. There were plenty of TOS episodes that feature psionics as nightmarish or problematic (*to say the least) potential.
*I would like to beg/plead with the designers to create an in game "kit" for races with psionic potential. for example; mind armor (boost psionic damage resistance) Logic bomb (a telepathic attack) and an amplifier for the telekinetic thrust, bringing it's damage on par with a phaser pistol...
with coresponding increases with the item's "mark rank".
of course other abilities could be developed for a specific "telepathy kit" and "telekinetic kit".
I imagine that the romulans and especially the remans may have such a technology.
So, dear Developers. I humbly beg you to consider this idea.:D
I think that's a great idea! I've had the unfortunate pleasure of being at the receiving end of Reman psychic attacks and, as the player of a Betazoid character, I'd really would like it to see my esper abilities be demonstrated in wider ways than what my racial traits depict.
this territory is wide open for new possibilities for "in game" fun: Telepathy: Roots, holds, confusion, placates, force holster of weapon, lose target lock, change target lock, spin character around, force 'lay down' of character, create a reverse of the optic power to produce a penalty for attacked senses... prolly tons more. like "telepathic invisibility" a stealth mode for mentalists!
Telekinesis "fling upwards"/"TK drop" target is sent skyward with telekinesis and suffers from the blast of force and the imminent impact with the ground...
"TK Crush" telekinetically treat a foe like an empty can of soda, a hold with DoT. (*could be revised to be a special Klingon faction grab attack, where the gorn grabs you lifts you off your feet and gives you a hug- with all it's might, so yeah even auntie gorn's hug could be deadly).
"TK stunner" a 'Stun setting' that advances with rank would be nice.
Of course a set of Telekinetic effects that advances with level would be nice too: a variety of scatered, arc wave, auto targeting, compresion bolt, etc would be very nice, as would an effect similar to the "photon grenade" and "Quantum mortar".
you all may have noticed how I did not use the phrase "PK or psychokinesis". I was saving it for now.
a PSI Kit for PK, PYROKINESIS... a rare kit, that does:
PK: fire bolt. one foe is shoved back and set on fire.
PK: blaze. You can set a fire akin to a "plasma grenade"
PK: deep fry. one foe withers under your stare as they burn inside and out.
Another Idea: Captured undine battle guantlet. Psychic blade power, and 'transphasic' scatter shot?
Another idea: captured undine psi-vest. Heal self, shield self, movement increase, stealth mode, who knows what?

But yeah, it seems a good idea. My Lethean wants it, too.
