Ultimate Psionist
Psions channel the raw power of their mind. Psychic warriors channel it in combat. Lurks do it from the shadows striking sensitive areas. Wilders channel the raw emotion in an unstable nature. However few psionic characters can do a combination of the two. By combining two psionic arts a psionic character gains even more versatility and power.
