De-Bar-Ka, Tinalíya Specialist

[I got an idea for the adventure I want to run next fall at U-Con, but this scenario requires six or seven 8th-10th level characters and a similar number of 5th-7th level PCs (players will play one of each). I decided to test out Heroic Age of Tékumel with high-level PCs. In the process, I came up with an idea for dealing with the magical abilities of Pé Chói and Tinalíya, two of the nonhuman races. Here're the rules:

Pé Chói and Tinalíya have Innate Spellcasting as a Species Trait. 

Innate Spellcasting: Any members of these species with a PSY Mod of +1 or more can purchase one 1st level spell per level as a background skill.

This will allow them to essentially multi-class magic user with anything else.

Here is the final Tinalíya character.]

De-Bar-Ka is a scholar priest in the Temple of Ksárul in Purdimál at a rank of Licentiate, specializing in devices of the ancients. It is not just an academic, though, and it has taken several expeditions to the underworld and distant sites to study ancient artifacts in their natural habitat. In the process, it has also become quite expert in finding and disarming traps and locks of the ancients.
