A rare type of magic is that which is channelled purely through the mind. Many don't even consider this "magic" due to it's nature as psychic powers, although it's source is taken from the exact same place as any regular or even extraordinary magic spell. The psyker's are few and far between and are among the rarest classes in existance.
Their powers are all psychic based and can become very powerful and varied. However, all specialise in a specific form of psychic power, be it increasing their physical abilities or using telekinesis to crush objects from afar. Powerful psykers can even manifest elemental powers such as firing lightning from their fingers or igniting objects with nothing but their minds.
There are three forms of combat the psykers choose to follow when they are initiated into the order, melee, tk or psionics. Melee is the use of psychic powers to increase ones physical ability. This is similar in function to fighters but tends to be slightly more supernatural and involves things like flying and empowering blows with psychic energy. TKers use their psychic powers to fire bolts of psychich energy at their foes and throw the scenery at them as well as other physical manipulation of the surroundings with their minds. The psionic psykers use their psychic powers to affect the minds of their foes, using psychic energy to create illusions, confuse and use such subtle means to defeat their foes.
