Wilders rely on their passions to carry them through adversity and enact their will upon the world. Some—perhaps even most—wilders develop new and exotic powers as part of this paradigm, but cross-discipline masters are a cut above such dabblers. True experts in many disciplines, cross-discipline masters delight in learning new and exotic powers and use them with a smooth ease that can only be described as art.
The overwhelming majority of cross-discipline masters are wilders, though any other characters with the ability to wild surge are eligible for membership. Most continue along that path after exploring their discipline mastery.

Class Features
Cross-Discipline Learning
The cross-discipline master learns how to utilize many disciplines at once. At 1st level, and each level thereafter, you select two psionic disciplines. You learn one power from each of the chosen disciplines (even if it’s not on your class list; if the power appears on multiple class lists, use the highest-level version) and increase your manifester level when manifesting powers of the chosen disciplines by 1. You must select two new disciplines for this ability at each level and may not select the same discipline twice.
Adaptive Surge
At 2nd level, you learn to use your passions to adapt to changing circumstances. Up to three times per day, you may invoke your wild surge as a swift action and learn a new power from a discipline you have selected for cross-discipline learning. You retain knowledge of this power for a number of minutes equal to your wild surge’s intensity, after which it dissipates from your mind.
Cross-Discipline Efficiency
At 3rd level, you become more efficient at using powers from many disciplines; you reduce the base power point cost of all your psionic powers by 1, to a minimum of 1 pp.
