No, I promise I'm not starting another thread to bash the Dragon/Dungeon version. But I do plan to run the Dungeon adventure, which seems at least decent, and I need one question answered since I don't have the Dragon article. How does the Dragon article deal with wild talents? I noticed in the adventure that just about everyone and their brother was running around with one or two small powers, and they seemed to get them without spending a feat. So how does that work?

Thanks! Now I just need to get my copy of the new Psionics handbook (perhaps lost in transit grrrrrrrr), and then I'm in business.

I think every race in that issue gets eventually up to level 4 psionic powers or something.

Actually, everone is a wild talent in that system. Every races has 3 power points and one power, which varies according to race, and humans select their power.

So basically, there are no wild talents in the dragon conversion, since EVERYBODY is one, and thus there is no random wild talents.

Ahh! Thank you. That explains why all the elves had the same power. And I thought the adventure designer was just being lazy...

Well, since I promised I wouldn't start another Paizo-bashing thread, I will refrain from expressing my opinion about how silly I think that rule is. :D

This is true except for the Kreen. They get power points, but no powers. They do however get psi-like abilities.
