Hi Heng,
Mark here, Raihan asked me to provide some input and suggestions.

1. Got free versatile expertise feat. To put it in CB click the little HOUSE icon in the FEAT CHOICE CHECKLIST box.

2. I'd go for an 18,13,13,10,10,8 stat allocation. 18 INT, 13 CHA/WIS, 8 STR or DEX, 10 in the rest. Alternatively you can put 13 CON instead of WIS, this will give you some decent FORT defence and HP/surges.

3. While Memory Hole is a nice power to have, I'd suggest a more controlly-type at-will like, Static Mote - auto slow, nice burst radius (unfriendly tho), then again it's only a suggestion.
Or if you wanna go for a more damage focused at-will, you can consider Mind Thrust - targets will, can be used as a RBA, thus you get +2 damage with Resplendent Gloves, used together with the Bracers of the Perfect Shot and Psychic Focus feat, you get a total of 1d10+11 damage with an unaugmented at-will. (you may even wanna consider the Vicious Intrusion feat for an additional +3 damage when you use Distract, look at point no.6 )

4. Dishearten is a staple at-will Psion power

5. I personally prefer the Mind Shroud utility power, makes you slowed but gives u TOTAL COVER that's +5 to all defences!

6. Feat-wise, can consider Discipline Adept (let you use Distract and Send Thoughts twice per encounter) & Mind Link (use Send Thoughts to ignore cover & concealment against the target for the whole encounter, combo with Discipline Adept, you can ignore C&C for 2 targets)

7. Level 3 at-will, I personally like Kinetic Trip, some people prefer Betrayal, basically when playing a Psion you'd wanna focus your powers for more funky ways to screw up the DM's actions

Alrighty, that's all for now time

Hi Mark - Have taken on board some of your suggestions, thanks!

During the Last War:

Within a small bog in the nation of Breland, some time in the middle of Eberron's Last War, the Shardmind, Azni came to sentience - not knowing where he was or how he came to be. Driven to learn of his origins, he wandered the nearby villages, town and cities, looking out for some clue that might give him the answers he sought. This endeavor was not especially easy; as a Shardmind wholly ignorant of the local customs, humanoid emotions and subtle nuances of the folk around him, his bluntness often worked against him. The fact that a war was raging on didn't help very much either. Undeterred, he resorted to using his innate telepathic talents to continue his search for leads whilst simultaneously learning about the other races around him.

One day, while "eavesdropping" on a nearby group of Breland(ian/ic?) soldiers, he picked up a curious emotion he had never encountered before; treasonous betrayal. A member of the company was a spy for the nation of Cyre. Intrigued, Azi blatantly strode up and casually questioned the soldier why he had defected despite being born and raised Breland(ian/ic?). The spy was taken completely by surprise and panicked, immediately fleeing the scene. He was arrested shortly after and never seen again. News of this event reached the ears of the local army's intelligence division who promptly approached Azni with an offer; serve as a mole-spotter for them and they would share with him any information they knew about his kind. Azni immediately agreed. Over the next few years, he served his employers well and consequently learnt a great deal from their vast information network; about the demise of the Living Gate and that there were others like him with similar/differing philosophies (some noble, others fatalistic). With the abrupt ending of the War, Azni is now free to pursue his ambition of inheriting the purpose of the Living Gate as a God Shard.

Personality Traits:
To Azni, cold infallible logic is the answer to any solution. He may not win any popularity votes amongst his companions from time to time but it matters little to him. He believes it futile to attempt to remake the Living Gate. Where the Gate failed in their purpose as a whole, perhaps the answer lies in the now individualistic Shardmind. His is quietly reserved but always cautious, ever on the lookout for his more extremist brethern who strive to reunite them all (usually quite fatally) as the Living Gate once more.

Mannerisms & appearance:
To any common observer, Azni appears as a collection of milky-white crystalline shards given humanoid shape. The pattern in which he has gathered his shards however emulate certain humanoid visual characteristics; long hair, large forearms and claw like hands, high cheekbones and talon-like feet. He wears simple robes; more so to blend in with the citizens of Sharn rather than shield him from the elements.
