I’m getting to be a player as our group migrates away from DND 5e. I’ve played 1 short PF2e campaign so far and DM’d two short ones as well. I usually play team players so I finally get the chance to be the team’s damage blaster, and wanted to try psychic since I hear it’s got crazy burst. However, I’m having trouble deciding between two consciousness and a subconsciousness (preferably int based) with them. The (very flexible, open to change character entirely) idea is an Automaton created by a cult to make an artificial great one (bloodborne, lovecraft style). I want them to feel like they have reality bending abilities, so unbound step felt fitting, but Distant Grasp’s Telekinetic rend is almost dead on the vibe I want for DPS, and I do want to get Implosion just for the flavor of crushing things with my mind. Any suggestions?

I am a long time DM running this system for the first time. My player party consists of a DoK Melusai (Blood Sister type build), a Cities Celestial Mage, a very angry Nighthaunt Battlemage, and a player currently deciding between an Ogre and a Fyreslayer. I am an AoS fan (I play Slaves to Darkness) and was wondering if it'd be better to run Shadows in the Mist after a few introductory sessions or to homebrew my own focused on my OC Chaos Lord
