“In the shadowed halls of forgotten gods, where powermasters weave unseen threads and bend the fabric of thought, a secret was born—a veil so perfect that even the eyes of truth falter. The Veil of Absolute Deception cloaks its bearer in a tapestry of divine mystery, arcane illusion, and psionic denial, rendering them an enigma to all who seek them. To the world, they are a phantom, a lie so profound that reality itself bends to believe it.”

Description:
Veil of Absolute Deception is a powermaster spell masterful woven of divine, arcane, and psionic power, creating an unbreakable shroud that conceals the target from all forms of perception. This spell reverses the clarity of True Seeing to obscure truth, enhances Superior Invisibility’s total sensory concealment, and incorporates Impenetrable Veil’s psionic barrier to protect against mental and magical detection. The result is a near-perfect disguise that resists even the most potent divination and sensory abilities, making the target an unassailable phantom.

Effect:
When cast, Veil of Absolute Deception grants the following effects to the target:

Total Sensory Invisibility: The target becomes invisible to all senses—sight, sound, smell, touch, and even magical detection—for the duration. This includes immunity to effects that normally reveaal invisibility, such as See Invisibility, Invisibility Purge, and Glitterdust. The target can attack, cast spells, or take other actions without breaking the invisibility, unlike standard invisibility spells. This effect extends to all gear carried or worn by the target, up to their maximum load.

Divine Obfuscation: The spell creates a divine veil that obscures the target’s true nature from divination and supernatural senses. Spells and abilities such as True Seeing, Discern Location, Legend Lore, Scrying, and even True Seeing.

Psionic Mental Barrier: The spell erects a psionic shield around the target’s mind and presence, rendering them immune to mind-affecting effects (e.g., Detect Thoughts, Dominate Person, or Mind Probe) and psionic detection powers (e.g., Detect Psionics, Clairvoyant Sense).

Adaptive Illusion (Combined Effect): The caster can choose an alternate appearance for the target (e.g., a different creature, an object, or an empty space) that adapts dynamically to the observer’s expectations. This illusion affects all senses and is reinforced by the psionic and divine components, making it nearly impossible to disbelieve.

Name: Dimensional Ironskin
Level: Cleric 7 (Irongaurd, Greater), Wizard 4 (2E Stoneskin), Psion 7 (2E Dimensional Blade)
Combined Level: 10
School: Abjuration [Force, Psionic]
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 1 minute per level (D)
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: No

The spell blocks 1d4 attacks, plus one attack per two levels of experience the caster has achieved. This limit applies regardless of attack rolls and regardless of whether the attack was physical or magical. For example, a stoneskin spell cast by a 9th-level wizard would protect against from five to eight attacks. An attacking griffon would reduce the protection by three each round; four magic missiles would count as four attacks in addition to inflicting their normal damage.

When cast “Your skin takes on a metallic sheen with a stone-like texture, faintly glowing with swirling patterns of planar energy. Metal weapons pass through you harmlessly, while mundane and dimensional melee attacks are absorbed or deflected by the spell’s layered defenses.”

Effect:

When you cast Dimensional Ironskin, your skin transforms into a shimmering, metallic-stone hybrid infused with faint ripples of planar energy. This spell grants the following protections:

Damage Reduction: The affected creature gains a virtual immunity to any attack by cut, blow, projectile, or the like. Even a sword of sharpness cannot affect a creature protected by stoneskin, nor can a rock hurled by a giant, a snake’s strike, etc.

Immunity to Metal Weapons: You are immune to all damage from metal weapons (natural or manufactured), including melee and ranged attacks, as per Ironguard. This immunity persists for the full duration of the spell.

Dimensional Protection: You are immune to melee attacks enhanced by dimensional or planar effects (e.g., a Dimensional Blade or similar psionic/arcane powers that bypass physical defenses by cutting through dimensions). This includes immunity to effects that teleport or sever your planar connection as part of a melee attack.

“When you invoke Omniscient Sight, your eyes glow with a radiant light suffused with arcane runes and psionic energy. The world around you unveils its secrets as divine insight merges with arcane mastery and psionic clarity. Illusions melt away, hidden truths stand revealed, and the veils of deception part before your omniscient gaze.”

Description
Omniscient Sight combines divine revelation, arcane precision, and psionic clarity to grant the caster or a touched creature an unparalleled ability to perceive reality. Upon casting or manifesting this spell/power, the subject’s senses are heightened to a supernatural degree, piercing all forms of deception and illusion.

The subject gains the following benefits:

True Vision: The subject sees through all illusions (including invisibility, blur, displacement, mirage arcana, and similar effects), magical darkness, and polymorph or shapechanging effects, perceiving the true form of creatures and objects within 360 feet. This includes seeing through mundane disguises and obfuscations (e.g., fog, smoke) as if they were not present.

Enhanced Detection: The subject automatically detects the presence of magical auras (as per Detect Magic), psionic auras (as per Detect Psionics), and alignment auras (as per Detect Evil/Good/Law/Chaos, all four simultaneously) within 360 feet, with no concentration required. With a standard action, the subject can analyze these auras to determine their strength, school/discipline, and specific properties.

Mental Clarity: The subject gains immunity to mind-affecting illusions (e.g., phantasmal killer, weird) and a +4 bonus on Will saves against other mind-affecting effects for the duration, reflecting the psionic influence of mental discipline.

Spiritual Insight: The subject can perceive the spiritual essence of creatures, gaining knowledge of their alignment (good, evil, lawful, chaotic) and whether they are undead, outsiders, or elementals, without requiring a check.

Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Target: One creature or object
Duration: 1 minute/level (D)

Description
Dimensional Triad Anchor combines the divine authority of the gods, the arcane mastery of the multiverse, and the psionic manipulation of spacetime into a singular, potent effect. When cast, you emit a shimmering ray of energy that fuses radiant divine light, arcane glyphs, and a pulsating psionic resonance. This ray locks the target in place within the dimensional fabric, preventing all forms of extradimensional movement or travel.

Effect
The target is enveloped in a field of interlocking energies: a glowing divine aura, swirling arcane runes, and a subtle psionic hum.

Dimensional Lock: The target cannot use any form of extradimensional travel or movement for the duration of the spell. This includes, but is not limited to:

Teleportation effects (e.g., teleport, dimension door, greater teleport). Planar travel (e.g., plane shift, gate, astral projection). Ethereal or incorporeal movement (e.g., ethereal jaunt, etherealness). Psionic teleportation powers (e.g., psionic teleport, psionic dimension door).

Universal Resistance: The caster level check (or manifester level check for psionic manifestation) is made at +4 to reflect the combined potency of the three traditions.

Components
Verbal (V): A resonant chant invoking divine authority, arcane precision, or psionic focus, depending on the caster’s tradition.
Somatic (S): A gesture that traces a triangular sigil in the air, symbolizing the unity of divine, arcane, and psionic power.
Mental Focus (Psionic): For psionic manifesters, the power requires intense concentration rather than verbal or somatic components, in line with psionic mechanics.

the initial build of the powermaster had 3 primary processors - one for each “spellcasting” class, mage cleric and psion. i think it was the 3rd or 4th gen where a “physical” processor was added - for melee, movement or whatnot. a few generations after that, a set of 4 co-processors was added, taking the load off the main brains for minor actions like ongoing spell concentration, shifting targets, gem actions, refreshing stoneskins, etc. the co-processors are limited to self/personal effects only - fiddling and diddling with things running in the background on the powermaster himself.

so, for example, if Daren was casting a prismatic spray at some lich that pissed him off, triggering the lich’s dim-door contingency - a coprocessor could re-target the ongoing spell and hit the bastard anyway (provided he was in range, obviously), but the coprocessor isn’t “smart” enough to initiate the casting in the first place as it involves both casting and targeting (a non-personal effect).
