The full PSP cost of the power must be paid despite the lack of success, and this psionicist cannot alter this aura until he achieves a higher experience level.
Description
With aura alteration, a psionicist can temporarily disguise a person's alignment , disguise his level, or remove aura afflictions like curses, geases, and quests. Disguisig a character's alignment or level is the easiest to do. The disguise is temporary, lasting only 1-6 hours. It has no effect on the character's real alignment or class, but a psionicist with aura sight will be fooled by the fake aura. Because curses, geases, and quests are imprinted on the character's aura, they can be removed with this power. A psionicist who tries this suffers a -6 penalty to his power score and must expend 20 PSPs instead of 10. If the die roll is 1, the psionicist's patient must make a saving throw vs. spells to avoid losing one experience level. (A slip of the psychic scalpel can close off vital parts of the brain.)
