All psionicists possessed formidable mental discipline in order to properly use their psionic powers. Psionic power could be activated much faster than either divine or arcane magic. Use of psionic power did not require spell components. Nevertheless, after the Year of Wild Magic, 1372 DR, the results of psionic powers were magical in nature and psionics and conventional magic were fully transparent to one another, interacting just as magic did with itself, though not all spellcasters were aware if this was possible. Not even deities of magic like Mystra and Shar could stop a psionic creature using its powers. Instead, a psionic creature was itself its own Weave. In contrast to the spellcasting of conventional magic, psionics did not draw power from the Weave (nor the Shadow Weave, or any other external power) and did not need it to function. Psionics was fueled by the internal magic of one's own mind and life-force, similarly to ki, using this power to produce psionic effects.
