Yeah. Fortunato. Fortunatis is a mythical planet from Sinai -- the one corresponding to Chaos magic. No relationship intended whatsoever!
I like your thoughts regarding the boundaries on psionic powers. If there's anything equivalent to "mind control" -- it might instead be "motor control" (insert random pseudoscientific or Latin term here) or basically just be a "puppet" power. I can also see how being totally disabled would be very unpopular; I can see that in practice in RPGs. Being slowed? Very annoying. Being outright PARALYZED for 2d6 rounds? Good grief, time to go make a sandwich.
