Vanilla Psycasts Expanded - Puppeteer introduces a brand new, rare psycaster path available only to those who studied the secret arts in their childhood - notably, high imperial nobles. Puppeteer is a path focused on providing the master of puppets with mindless servants that he or she directly controls. It allows the puppeteer to move their consciousness and personality to a random puppet, essentially allowing for a wicked sort of immortality.

Puppeteers are able to subdue their prisoners with a twisted psychic abomination called the brain leech, which will lay the foundations of a brand new puppet. Such brain leech can then seize control of the prisoner if the puppetmaster sends out a puppeting signal. Puppets care not for recreation, joy or comfort, and exist only to serve the puppet master. Any experience they gained is shared with their overlord, and if they are chosen, they may be ascended - their existence fizzles out in a blaze of utter destruction, while anything that they were becomes food for the evil psycaster that puppeted them.

As stated before, this Psycaster path is only available to those of Imperial backstory, similar to the Archotechist. Your colonists may, however, become puppeteers if they gain a puppeteer neurotrainer.

Hello guys, love the work you do however why does this mod cause so many memory leaks upon usage? Very incompatible with large mod-lists which is fair but I mean this is WOW.

Found this out the hard way through the Dubs discord.
Pls remove.
Have a great day xoxo

Psycaster puppet has access to psycasts. Jumping to puppet overwrites psycasts. Too bad you can't take their powers.

anyone knows that happens if your puppet becomes a psycaster after becoming a puppet? or what happens when you make a psycaster your puppet?

Unfortunately this mod no longer works. I tried this mod by itself with only the prerequisite mods you need for this one to function, vanilla expanded framework and psycasts expanded. Even if I could start a new game and play it, after I save and exit, the next time I come back something has completely broken and it's different almost each time. Pawns or menus just missing, not being able to click anything, the whole map just being grey. Without fail, this has been my experience for over 100 hours. This mod is busted unfortunately

I got insulted by my puppet, which proceed to hit itself in a social fight. :winter2019joyfultearsyul:

When my puppeteer mind jumped into the body of another psycaster, the new hosts original psycasts remain available for use in the hotbar but do not appear unlocked in the psycast menu. When I mind jumped back to the original body both bodies psycasts are available for use but still do not show as unlocked in the psycast menu.

Using devmode it seems psycasting trees do not unlock but the psycasts within the tree remain learned.

An error started to occur in which the doll could not eat or get out of prison.(I use Vanilla mods only)
