Editing Psionics (section)

== Power Scaling ==
The relative strength of a psychic entity is given as two measurements, <br>
'''Amplification (kα)''', and '''Dampening (kδ)'''. {{Color|#ff4500|Amplification}} is a measure of how significantly an entity can distort the energy fields of the noösphere to achieve a given effect. A Pyromancer with a higher degree of amplification can concentrate greater energy into a firebolt; but the impact on the noösphere in their proximity will be proportionally great in regards to Glimmer generation. {{Color|#87cefa|Dampening}} by contrast is a measure of how controlled an entity is with their powers. With some exceptions, Dampening directly decreases the amount of Glimmer generated by casting powers.

Finally, '''Potentia''' represents the growth of psionic potential in an individual. Potentia is gained by consuming large quantities of powerful hallucinogenic drugs, and it is spent upon reaching certain thresholds in order to gain new powers. Worship of The Oracle is the fastest known method for gaining Potentia.

Many other creatures can have power scaling different from that of a human, and thus may interact with their powers in ways different from an equivalent humanoid psion. To give an example, an Ifrit will usually have five times as much Amplification as the baseline, causing their Pyromancy to be substantially more dangerous than that of a human Pyromancer.
