Psychic abilities are exercised by consuming will points of varying levels. A ability can require one or more will point to be utilized, and performing it consumes those will points until the creature completes a long rest. They can also restore up to one will point of their desired level during a short rest. An ability can require will points of multiple levels to be cast. An ability can be performed using higher than required will points which allow it, in many cases, to have a greater than normal effect. When doing so, all required will points must be increased in level by the same amount.
There are 5 levels of will point. Level 1 will points are available at first level. Level 2 at 6th level, level 3 at 11th level, level 4 at 16th level, and level 5 at 21th level. At 26th level, the player unlocks 3 legendary psychic points. These can only be used for upgrading abilities, no abilities have them as a minimum required will point cost. Players only ever get 3 legendary will points unless directly stated elsewhere. The number of will points a creature possesses can be determined by consulting either the formula below, or the table beneath it.
C(N) = 2(L - (F(N) - 1))
L = Current player level
F(N) = Player level where you first acquired that level of will point
C(N) = Number of will points at level N
