This power allows the psionicist to wrap a
dimensional door around his body to protect him
from his enemies’ attacks. The screen is a
shimmering cylinder as tall as the psionicist that
surrounds him at a range of two feet.
Any missile or hand-held weapon that strikes the
screen is instantly transported to a corresponding
point on the other side - so arrows and spears
pass through the space occupied by the psionicist
without harming him. or even being impeded in
their flight The protection of the screen also
applies to creatures trying to attack with tooth or
claw, or other characters trying to grapple the
psionicist. They pass through the screen. emerging
on the opposite side. Most forms of energy. such
as lightning bolts or flames. will also be diverted
by the screen.
The dimensional screen has two limitations. First.
the psionicist can't pierce his own screen with any
weapon or form of energy (although some psionic
powers may be used to mount indirect attacks on
opponents outside the screen).
Secondly, the screen fails if an object larger than
the screen moves into contact with it: so the
psionicist can’t run through a mountain, or ignore
the charge of a raging mekillot. Clever opponents
may find ways to attack the psionicist inside his
screen. Magical spells like charm person, sleep, or
cloudkill project no energy. Psionic powers also
may penetrate the screen, as described above.
