Biographical information
Species:	Cabal
Class:	Psion
Combat information
Weapon(s):	Slug Rifle
Abilities:	Psionic Blast ; Psychic Melee

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.^[1] Smaller than their larger counterparts,^[2] Psions harness the power of their minds to attack enemies and pilot the Cabal's ships.^[3]

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; 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.

Psions become much more dangerous during Nightfall Strikes, as they acquire a Void shield.
