The psytrainer is a rare item added by the Royalty DLC that will substantially increase a single, specific psycast of the colonist using the serum. It will then be used up and disappear. Each serum is attuned to one specific psycast and will provide that psycast only, which is given as part of the name, as in "Psytrainer (Beckon)". The psycast can not be chosen, it is a property of the item and chosen randomly when the item is generated by the game.

The Psytrainer can be acquired in the early Deserter quest, as well as by trade and as a quest reward in other quests.

The value of the psytrainer depends on its content. A psytrainer for a lower level psycast will be cheaper than that of a higher level psycast.

When a psytrainer is used on a pawn with a psylink level lower than the required level for the taught psycast to be used, the taught psycast will replace the free psycast when the level is achieved. Therefore, you should wait until the required level is achieved, unless it is necessary for wealth management.

Market value varies on the level of the psycast, with higher level psycasts having a higher value. This follows the equation of 100 + 150*Level.

Level	Market value
1	250
2	400
3	550
4	700
5	850
6	1000
