So Force Majeure is probably overpowered or underpowered, but there are enough tweaks that could be made to it to balance it out, I think; so a bit of playtesting would suffice to turn it into a usable 4e power, and sans playtesting, well, there's not really much analysis that can be done.
The problem is, it's a psion's power, not necessarily an Abh's. I didn't mention the gith last time, although I should have, since they're at least half the reason I associate the Astral and psionics. (In fact, if you want to make this setting totally Core-fluff-compatible, you could just swap out the word 'Abh' for the word 'githyanki' and use the arguably-noncontradictory hopefully-upcoming History segment.)
Except for the froch, which is hard to model usefully in D&D, Abh aren't all that physically special; in source, they're socially special, this only partially due to long lifespans. Perhaps this should just be peeled away, letting them have essentially the racial qualities of Humans, on the theory that they're of human stock anyway....
... I should just move on to the History segment mentioned above, and make it crunch-free. I'll come back to the rules-instantiation of the fluff later.
