When this power is initiated, a clone of the
psionicist steps out of his body. It is in every way
identical to the original form, except that it has no
substance. The psionicist can see and hear what
the clone sees and hears. The clone will do
anything the psionicist wants it to (as if it were
actually him). Furthermore, the psionicist's psyche
goes with the clone, thus enabling it to perform all
of his psionic powers.
This power has a serious drawback. As long as the
clone exists, the psionicist himself is practically a
turnip. He retains only three senses: smell, taste,
and touch. He cannot move, see, or hear. All his
psionic powers are transferred to the clone. In
effect, the immobile character is no longer a
psionicist; not even psionic sense will reveal his
true nature. He is considered Unconscious.
The clone can travel up to 600 feet from the
psionicist. It can go anywhere the psionicist
himself could go. For example, it can walk down a
corridor, walk across acid (the clone has no
substance and cannot be hurt), and swim
(provided the psionicist can). Because the
psionicist could walk through an unlocked door, so
can the clone-although the clone passes through
like a ghost. However, a clone cannot travel
through walls or walk on water, because the
psionicist could not either. The clone is impervious
to all forms of attack and damage except psionic
or mental attack (which will affect the psionicist).
