'''Psions''' are a slave race of the [[Cabal]]. They are a unique species that was conquered and forced into servitude by the main Cabal race.<ref>[http://imgur.com/a/bv7y8 '''Imgur''' - ''Newsweek Destiny Collector's Edition August 19, 2014'']</ref>{{citation needed}} Smaller than their larger counterparts,<ref name="Planetview">[https://www.destinyplanetview.com/en/home '''Destiny Planet View''']</ref> Psions harness the power of their minds to attack enemies and pilot the [[Cabal]]'s ships.<ref>'''Game Informer January 2014''', ''page 55''</ref> | |||

The strength of a Psion's attack depends on the type of Psion. An ordinary Psion will only be able to attack at point blank range, a Psion Operant will be able to launch a short-range attack, and a Psion Flayer will be able to send a psychic attack from quite a long distance. These attacks deal [[Arc]] (or electrical) damage, signifying their power over mind and (potentially) machine. Certain Psions are known to channel [[Void]] and [[Solar]] power, though this is restricted to Flayers observed in the [[Prison of Elders]]. | The strength of a Psion's attack depends on the type of Psion.
