Alien Races in IST
 
#32
As I said in post #22, there just isn't enough data to accurately create the racial template.

The book states "Like all Rynkarians, the Timekeeper is able to boost his strength and speed through an act of will."  In that same paragraph: "The boost ability is partly psionic in nature, so it leaves a trace other psis can detect."  Hence the psionic limitation should be applied to the advantages.

As it also says that his was further increased by his eugenics program, we don't know what the base-line Rynkarian has.  It also states "greater inherent and potential strength than others of his race" which doesn't clarify if they mean direct physical strength or application of ability.

Timekeeper's Combat Reflexes wasn't linked to his Basic Speed--it was a stand-alone advantage.  There's no way to know if it was part of his Racial Template or not.  I would assume he gained in during his training.

I'm betting, though, his 2d Vulnerability to Electricity is racial.

ETA:  And the ST is totally different.  In 4e, TK's base ST would only be 17.  His boost would only give him a +8 ST (+9 if you're feeling generous).
ETA2:  Derp!  I saw this and, twice, forgot to mention it (because I'm derpy sometimes).  You'd only need the Lifting/Strking ST to cost 2 FP each the way you're doing it.  Otherwise, you're charging 8 FP per use of the Enhanced ST.
