RULES OF ENGAGEMENT
1. Remain incognito
While the Psion is a human, his abilities have the tendency to inspire fear and distrust rather than respect and awe. Most humans will likely consider the Psion to be a threat. And while the Psion's will can be corrupted to serve the alien, he is likewise an unknown threat to this malicious entity and may be hunted as a result. It is therefore in the Psion's best interest to remain anonymous for an extended period of time. In terms of gameplay, this means avoiding the use of abilities and even abstaining from evolution until you are certain you will be strong enough to combat any threat or until you know you can secure allies.
2. Make strategic decisions
How the Psion shapes his abilities will ultimately determine where his loyalties will lie. As he becomes more proficient in the psionic arts, his human will begins to bend in either malicious, pragmatic, or virtuous directions. It is therefore advisable that the Psion remain prudent in how he chooses to train his abilities. Training abilities based on his ultimate goals is the best strategic plan a Psion can make.
3. Keep your friends close...
The Psion is a being with a few extraordinary gifts. KLSC Research has shown increased growth of psionic aptitude while the subject was being attended by many associates as opposed to only a few. It was therefore concluded that the Psion actually copies and amplifies the minute psionic energies of nearby humans. Stay near other humans, and you will evolve more quickly. It was also discovered that, just before death, all sentient life forms emit a strong energy pulse that the Psion feeds upon, greatly influencing his rate of growth. Studies have shown that the nature of the dying being has to be the opposite of the Psion in order to ensure maximum growth. If both are alike in nature, the results are actually detrimental to the Psion's growth. It is therefore undesirable for a malicious Psion to kill another malicious being, and likewise for a virtuous Psion to kill a virtuous being.
In summary...
- Keep your identity secret until the need arises to reveal yourself
- Carefully choose which abilities you will learn since they determine who you will be allied with
- You gain evo more quickly when near other humans, or by killing humans or aliens depending on your alignment
- ???
- Profit!
