It belatedly occurs to me that since Athas is an official site, would it be legally permissible to host a master list of every 3.x psionic power WotC has ever produced here?
I am the creator and maintainer of just such a list of powers, as it happens. All 880 or so of them. (916 if you count the duplicates with significant differences.)
Do note that since 3.5 D&D is part of the d20 system, my list also includes all d20, as well as non updated or significantly different 3.0 powers as well.
And if not, would adding an Athas specific commentary to each power make it so? I could also extract a specialized version of the list, depending on needs or legalities.
Your thoughts please.
In any case, I will duplicate my original post here on this site, for the general benefit of all. Merry Christmas (early)!!!
Please discuss any items pertaining to this handbook here.

To preview a list of all powers and the sources they came from for version 10 or version 11 of the list, please check out the following links, as the table tag is apparently not supported here in the Arena:
Because my list publishes the full data on each power as it appears in each source; the SRD ones are not a problem, of course, but the rest are not covered by the OGL.
That’s partly why I’m thinking that it might be different if hosted here, due to the Site License.
Not the books, at least not legally freely.

Not unless someone were to come up with Athas specifically different versions of all the powers. …

Hmmm, I might have to consider that actually.
Any problems hosting this list at this site, and if it needs to be a pared down version of the list instead of the full list, do let me know and I can extract the necessary data.
Alternatively, it should make a fine foundation for a “Powers of Athas” or “Psionics of Athas” sourcebook, which I would be happy to do the work for if the finished product can be listed and hosted here among the other finished PDFs?
