The Complete Psionics Handbook[]

Cell adjustment allows the psionicist to heal wounds and cure diseases. Any sort of wound can be healed, but only nonmagical diseases are affected (e.g., this power cannot heal mummy rot, nor can it cure a lycanthropic curse).

The psionicist can cure a disease in one round by spending 5 PSPs and making a successful power check. If the die roll equals a 1, he succeeds but it's doubly taxing (10 PSPs). If it equals a 2, he fails because the disease is too widespread; he must spend another 5 PSPs and try again next round.

A "cure" doesn't automatically restore hit points lost due to illness; it merely arrests the disease. However, the psionicist can heal up to 4 points of damage in each subsequent round by spending 5 psionic strength points per hit point recovered. He cannot cure the disease and restore hit points during the same round.

Power Score - All disease - or up to 10 points of damage - is instantly healed at a cost of 5 PSPs.

20 - The psionicist suffers 1d10 points of damage but the patient is unaffected.

Player's Option: Skills & Powers[]

This power allows the user to heal wounds and cure nonmagical diseases—excluding such unnatural diseases as mummy rot and lycanthropy. He can cure a disease in 1 round by spending 5 PSPs and making a successful MTHAC0 roll. If the roll fails, the disease is too widespread in the victim's system. The user must continue spending 5 PSPs each round until he succeeds in activating the power. Note that a cure performed through this power doesn't automatically restore lost hit points. However, the user can heal up to 4 points of damage in each subsequent round by spending 5 PSPs per hit point recovered (4 hit points for 20 PSPs per round maximum). The user can't cure a disease and restore hit points during the same round.
