The Psi-Mage, much speculation and rumor surround these reclusive spellcasters. What is known is that they are the only creatures who can utilize magic and psionics simultaneously. Their deadly Psi-Blades are the ONLY weapon they use (barring vehicle mounted weapons) and more experienced Psi-Mages can perform outrageous feats with their mighty swords. A Psi-Mage's blade cannot be wielded by another being without special training meaning their weapons are rarely used against them. Many believe Psi-Mages to be immortal but this is not so they are however, incredibly difficult to kill. Psi-Mages are employed primarily by 2 major factions the Intergalactic Federation of Worlds and the Sathari Empire. Within the federation Psi-Mages serve aboard nearly every type of deep space vessel. Within the Sathari Empire they are rarely seen serving as the personal hand of the Emperor and are used for covert missions and as personal guards. Within the Federation they serve in a similar capacity and are also used as human lie detectors and for information gathering. Unaffiliated Psi-Mages can and do exist some often forming large cults whose ideals are as varied as the stars in the cosmos. Lone Psi-Mages are almost never hard pressed for mercenary work being in high demand. it is important to note that most folks familiar with Psi-Mages take them seriously and have a fear of them to one degree or another, this fearsome reputation is not undeserved as Psi-Mages are formidable hand to hand combatants and their Psi-Blades are known to cut through nearly anything, this combined with a general reckless use of destruction spells have made most societies wary of them. Psi Mages cannot cast general spells like a standard mage only having access to Power Magic, Divination, and Protection Magic. Their Psionic abilities include Telepathy, Telekinesis, Reading, and Various destructive powers. For those interested...Yes this is a ripoff of Jedi and sith there is however, no Dark Side, no Light Side, no Sith and no Jedi.
