Fiction:Essence/Psionic Energy

This was completely created, imagined and developed by The Valader, and its for fictional use, don't misjudge Valader's version with the real psychic term.

The Psionic energy is a very accessible power to any species, though it is the main composition of the Krass and the Krassio, and so they more than anybody can understand and possess the power of the Psionic energies.

Developing Psionics
There are two ways of developing psionic or minimally psychic energies, or methods, one only can be done by the Krassio, the other one can be applied by other creatures.

Krassio Methods

 * In Krassio academies, the warriors that normally want to become Oratorius are submitted to a great deal of disciplinary training, something the Krassio lack naturally. To counterattack this, the student normally recalls through concentration his own psionic energies, being these massive, the temper of the Krassio is normally blown away and starts to act erratically, a skillful Oratorius or Master must dedicate a full time to its student or students in order to control with his own energies the unleash of the student.

How do we do this?: The Master applies his energies, stronger than those of the student, to counterattack the student in a passive way. Student's energies are overwhelmed by the might of the Teacher and it regains conscious. A student must practice this exercise until he get used to the flowing energies, psionic energies are predictable and the effect rarely changes, so after two earth weeks the student gets used to control his own power.


 * Next phase is an exercise called "Controlling surroundings", it consists on the Master and student or students to travel to an environment full of wild life, in here the students apply the last exercise and use it, this time trying to get a pray, the learning of this is how to control weak minds. Wild life is not sentient and controlling an animal's movement and thoughts helps the brain to develop further (if situation goes out of control, same exercise above will be applied). After two earth months of practicing with different wild life, the student is capable of performing a mind meld with non-sentient life, yet his mind can also penetrate a sentient's defenses because of the psionic energy flowing in the Krassio's body and mind.


 * After this phase, the student faces a new challenge: Illusions. A powerful psionic user means that one is capable of trapping someone into a realistic illusion, yet in the real world you would only see the two fighters standing motionless. To apply correctly an Illusion, we need our Krassio to fully develop their imagination, in order to create full environments in a matter of seconds and nothing, here comes when the student must apply all his mental discipline and use it to develop a realistic illusion.

What happens when trapped?: The students, after being able of creating an illusion according to their teacher's terms, the student now faces the threat of being trapped in an Illusion, the master makes them enter on a regular illusion, and the student must find a way out, our reverse the illusion in something is called Mind combat, yet if the student only is able to come out, then its not prepared for the next phase. To pass this two steps, a year maximum is required for a regular Krassio.


 * The Next phase is the hardest; Mind combat. In here the students compete with each other in tournaments, when watching a tournament like this you will only see the two competitors sitting in their places without even twitching. Its because the two students are immerse in illusion combats and attacks to each other's defenses, in case of two competitors aversion (which can lead to someone hurt badly his rival mentally) there are Masters and Oratorius monitoring with their minds the illusions and mind wars.


 * Next, comes to learn how to combat in physical, the student learns to intensify its psionic energy in order to make them stronger (this ability is studied further and perfected by the Lideratus cast), along they participate in fights against other students in order to perfect this, minor missions in war zones are given also, though this is used in case of war. The student also learns how to make himself faster, intensify its sight, and even create protective shields around the body, which is a technique most Krassio use.


 * The stages above are the most common, there are ones most specified and requiere centuries of training, even more if you want to achieve Oratorius title.
