MegaPsychics are men and women who have an extraordinary ability to control physical reality in various ways. Their powers are far beyond even a mind melter. They possess a powerful 'mental self' that is capable of doing such things as lift a car several feet in the air to totaly destroying a tall building or severyal tall buildings. Although very rare, these beings are feared by most, and probably hated by more. A lone psi-stalker wont even attempt to hunt a MegaPsychic, unless the in a large group of other stalkers.

ISP
ISP: ME attribute plus 3D6x10
Recovers ISP at a natural rate of 4 per hour awake, and 14 per hour of

Special Powers
The MegaPsychic has a unique mental self that is capable of lashing
out and manipulating its surroundings. Anyone with the see aura ability
will notice an aura several times larger than the psychics bod and sense
its strength just by looking at it. All the following can be done without
the expenditure of ISP:
Telekinetic Powers: The psychics ME attribute becomes the mental selfs PS attribute. Treat the mental selfs strength as supernatural strength. So things like lifting weight and carrying things are the same as figuring out a creatures Supernatural strength, only use the ME attribute instead of the PS attribute. Note that this only applies to the mental self and gives the psychic what appears to be super telekinetic like abilities. The range of this ability is a mear 60ft, similar to telekinetic ability.
Other things that this ability can be used for is to push or grab someone or move things out of the psychics way. Once again, the mental endurance of the psychic determins his mental selfs strength. Each time this power is used it counts as one melee attack/action.
Telekinetic Damage: The mental self is also capable of doing a temendous amount of damage in the form of punches. This is said to be the psychics most damaging ability. He/she can mentaly punch anything within a 60 ft range with mega damage force. At first level, the punch does 3D6 damage. At levels 4, 9, 12, and 15 add another 2D6 to that damage.
Another thing this power can do is divide the attack damage between
the 2 foes. Example: lets say a level one character wants to punch 2 demons.
His punch does a mear 3D6 in damage so that means one demon takes 2D6 and
the other takes only 1D6.
note that all rules still apply if the characte wants to hit a certian
area, like the head of a monster, that is hard to hit. And each time this
power is used it counts as one melee attack/action. The Double attack only
counts as one melee action though.
Hide Mental self: Similar to the Alter Aura power, but this shuts down the mental self and hides it, making the MegaPsychic look like a minor psychic of the same level. The psychic must bring his mental self out of hiding to be able to use ANY powers that he has. This power is an such an innate abilit of the Psychic that it doesnt count as a melee action to use. It is an automatic ability.
Additional Psionic Powers:
They also possess the following powers (these cost ISP):
See Aura
Mind Block
See the Invisible
Sense Magic
Select an additional 3 powers from the physical, sensitive, and super catagories. Powers on the following list can be selected as well, any time the character gets a chance to select new powers. The character can select 2 powers or 1 super power every level of experience. For the super catagory, only powers that are physical in nature can be selected. i.e., powers like mentaly possess others or mind wipe shouldnt be selected, but powers like mental illusion or invisible haze can be (because they produce seemingly physical effects in someones mind).

Super Abilites
Deaden Senses
Invisible Haze

Mental Self MDC:
The mental self has its own MDC which, when the mental self is active,
takes all damage before the psychic does. Once all the MDC of the mental
self is depleted, all of the psychics powers are temporarily inactive
and the psychic himself takes 3D6 damage to SDC. The mental self requires
a full 48 hours to regenerate back to full if it is depleted in this way.
The psychic also suffers intense headaches which make him -10% on all skills
and he loses any initiative bonuses he might have had.
The MDC of the mental self is the hit points and SDC of the psychic x2+30. The mental selfs MDC grows as the psychics hit points and SDC grow. Adjust acordingly.
Note: the mental self MDC is also used as its Astral SDC. Make the usual adjustments for SDC in the dream stream.
Bonuses:

And the psychic gets a +3 to save vs any magical illusions. Any ME bonuses

gymnastics, and wrestling, pilot, pilot related, rogue, science: math only,

Note: these skills are meant to be taken from the Rifts RPG book. If
other skills from other games can be logicly fit into the characters background,
then they can be, with the discretion of the GM, used. This character has
a lot of psychic ability so it is usually best to keep his education and
skills to a minimum
Secondary skills
The character gets 8 secondary skills without any bonus. At levels 4
and 8 the character can select an additional 4 skills. They also are limited
to what is stated above for "other" skills.

air filter or gasmask, knife, food rations, and personal items. Also has
light megadamage body armor (nothing too heavy to restrict movement).

They can be of players choice. Techno-Wizard weapons are also used by these
characters. They are suitable for beginer level characters.

devices can be selected if so desired. But keep in mind that these characters
are very reliant upon their own powers and will not have many TW devices.
Money: starts out with 3D6x100 in credits and 2D4x1000 in saleable blackmarket
items. Most of this guys money has been spent in pleasure and in clothing.

self will be able to make up for this loss in a limb by serving AS the
limb.
