Skin of the Construct
( Complete Psionic, p. 57)[Psionic]
You can wear an astral construct as if it were a second skin.
Prerequisite
Know astral construct power,
Benefit
If you expend your psionic focus, you can fuse the essence of an astral construct that you have personally manifested with your own body. You choose to do this when you first manifest the power to gain this effect (instead of creating an astral construct normally). This construct, once absorbed into your body, does not count against your limit of astral constructs crafted (in most cases you can have only one astral construct active at a time. This additional astral "flesh" bonds perfectly with your own, giving you a silvery-white appearance and 1d8 temporary hit points that last for up to 1 hour. More important, it grants you one Menu A choice (EPH 186) that you can use as if you were the construct. You wear the skin of the construct for the normal duration of the manifested astral construct power, after which time it elapses.
Special
If you have any other feats that modify the appearance or abilities of an astral construct (such as Boost Construct or Ectopic Form), you do not accrue those BENEFITS: when you use the astral construct power with Skin of the Construct.
