the Touched

There isn't just one path to psychic power.  Experimentation, god granted
powers and even blind luck can unleash a person's potential.

Blind luck would be how one describes Irelun's path to psychic power.  After a
night of drinking and brawling he awoke to the power of psychic abilities but he
also awoke to much more.  He had learned how to identify the psychic ability in
others and the ability to manifest a suit of psionic armor.  Furthermore he had
gained the ability to instill the capability in others with concentration and a
'gentle tap' to the head.  But not everyone can join, only those deemed worthy and
sufficiently drunk may join.  Those who don't know how to have a good time need not
apply.

Where did he receive this ability?  Was he touched by the gods?  Was it
spontaneous?  No one knows; not even him (far, far too much brain damage). All that
is known is that his Touched have gained the capability to achieve psychic power
unlike most mortals.

NOTE: the Touched are currently a beta assoc. The affiliation may change over time, and not all information presented here may remain accurate. Some things are a 'lil buggy, and who knows what'll happen in the future.
