Re: Worldbuilding - honorific ideas

Well, since Psionics is a fantasy deal (and you called the story Science Fantasy), why not Chi?

If a character is a psionicist, he is addressed as Chi Name. Chi Raal said "Oh yeah, think those dirty thoughts baby."

Or, if you want to literally combine some cultures. Duraichi could be useful.

"Am I going to make it, Duraichi?" Paul asked.
"I don't think you are." Duraichi Peter said.
"Ah come on, give him a break." Assistant Duraichi Mary said. "He's about to crap himself already, what kind of Duraichi can't sense that."

I'm not trying to make light of your idea by putting (hopefully) funny things in my examples. But it is late and I'm hungry and bored.
