A brand new D&D class was not on my bingo card for 2025, and yet! The Psion, a spellcaster who uses ‘innate mental powers’ rather than the arcane, divine, or primal magic of other casting classes, may finally be nearing an official release as the game’s 14th class.
That makes this another Intelligence-based class, like the Wizard or Artificer, but with its own distinct flavor. Rather than learning spells through boring ol’ books, or infusing magic into weapons, armor and gadgets, psionics are a force that results from the sheer power of the mind.
