description: Caster is able to physically travel back in time up to 100 years/lvl. The shift is instantaneous and caster returns to his own time at the end of the duration unless the Psion is recast. Any relative movement by the caster is also reflected, though cosmic (planetary movement, etc.) are corrected for. This is an extremely dangerous and powerful Psion, to be used with care. It is strongly recommended that extensive research with Past Sight and Past Location be done first. In any case the GM must be prepared to deal with possible ramifications of such travel if it is allowed. Can someone change the past?-or is what they do already a part of What Has Gone Before?
