This is a collection of PK effects, from the clinical ESP-test type (making a pinwheel spin) to the spooky bizarre type (bringing a dead bone to life). Certainly by the time you've gone through them, you should be able to start thinking of your own effects.

Lots of other goodies in the Compendium, too. Well worth the £20.


While a very good read (and an enjoyable project building the machine) a lot of the effects require more than the power of a PK ring. But like you said it might help with ideas. The haunted torch would work with the PK ring and from there you could change most electrical items the same way.

It is possible to reply to a question without giving a direct answer and still be helpful. In fact, sometimes not answering the actual question can be a blessing in disguise; the information that is given can still be valid, relevant, useful and thought-provoking.

Simply replying with, "sorry, mate. I don't know of any", is none of the above. You're better off not responding.

I was talking specifically about the "Pseudo Psycho" section, which is all based on mags, though admittedly not actually rings. But a variety of PK effects to play with and spark off ideas.
