A psychic assassin is much like a mundane assassin except they prefer to kill people with mysterious strokes, heart failure and by liquidizing their brain instantly. While some are still skilled assassin even without their psychic power, psychic assassin can often lack real stealth skills, instead relying on their psionic powers to move around unseen.

====Class Features====

All of the following are class features of the Psychic Assassin.

'''{{Anchor|Manifesting}}:''' At each level, you gain power points per day, an increase in manifester level, and new powers as if you had also gained a level in a manifesting class to which you belonged before adding the prestige class level. You do not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained. If you had more than one manifesting class before becoming a psychic assassin, you must decide to which class to add each level for the purpose of determining powers, manifester level, and powers known.

'''{{Anchor|Hide Mental Presence}} {{Su}}:''' As a swift action a psionically focused 1st level psychic assassin may hide her psychic presence for 1 minute. Doing so require her to spend a single power point and make her and all her equipment resistant to any divination or clairvoyance-effect as per [[SRD:Nondetection|''nondetection'']] as well as hiding her from mindsight and touchsight. 

'''{{Anchor|Penetrating Mind Thrust}} {{Su}}:''' A psychic assassin's [[SRD:Mind Thrust|''mind thrust'']] now deal minimum damage on a successful [[Will]] save rather than being completely negated.

'''{{Anchor|Psionic Death Attack}} {{Su}}:''' This ability work as the [[SRD:Assassin|assassin]]'s death attack except with the following changes: Firstly it require the psychic assassin to expend it psionic focus as she start observing the creature, she may recover her psionic focus without disrupting her death attack. The psychic assassin may only her death attack with either a [[SRD:Mind Thrust|''mind thrust'']] or [[SRD:Recall Agony|''recall agony'']] power (that she manifest normally), instead of a melee attack and the Save DC of the death attack is the same as the DC of the manifested power. If the creature succeed on it fortitude save it is allowed a will save against the power as normal. If the power fail to penetrate power resistance the death attack fail.

'''{{Anchor|Cloaked Manifesting}} {{Ex}}:''' A 2nd level psychic assassin gain a +1 bonus to her manifester level and to her DCs when manifesting a non-harmless power against another unwilling flat-footed creature. At 4th level and 6th level this bonus increase by 1 point.

'''{{Anchor|Memory Recall}} {{Ex}}:''' A 2nd level psychic assassin gain the [[Suppress Memory (3.5e Feat)|suppress memory]] feat. She can regain any memory she has forgotten through the [[SRD:Call to Mind|''call to mind'']] power, either form her psionic power or her [[Total Recall (3.5e Feat)|Total Recall]] feat. Regaining her memory this way is based on an extremely complex mental process and leave the psychic assassin [[SRD:Fatigued|fatigued]], she do not need to remember having the memory to recall it (making it a player decision rather than a character decision). 

'''{{Anchor|Thought Ravage}}:''' A 3rd level psychic assassin's [[SRD:Mind Thrust|''mind thrust'']] and [[SRD:Recall Agony|''recall agony'']] powers lose the [mind-affecting] tag. She may also remove the [mind-affecting] tag on any power she manifest by spending 6 additional power points on it (count as an augment and thus increase the DC by 3).

At 5th level this ability extend to [[SRD:Death Urge|''death urge'']], ''id cascade''<sup>Hyper</sup> and [[SRD:Recall Death|''recall death'']].

'''{{Anchor|Death Urge}}:''' A 4th level psychic assassin add [[SRD:Death Urge|''death urge'']] to her power known as soon as she learn 4th level power, this does not count against her maximum number of power known.
