Psychic - Presence
consciousnesssubtly
A character cannot have ranks in more than a single magical skill at one time. Psychic allows the character to use magic during sessions, typically by making a Psychic skill check as an action. Unlike other magical skills, the Psychic skill does not suffer a penalty when being performed without a magical implement, or when the caster is unable to speak. Instead, a character with the Psychic skill can cast a limited selection of spell types through concentrated mental effort, however they will need to use their hands to direct and extend their psychic abilities.
