So most teams need a Face, right? The Adept Power Kinesics makes for a bitchin' Face, but I like a character that can do more than one thing. So I made a Mystic Adept.

Counterspelling Focus (Combat) 3

That leaves me 4 BP, which turns into 20K left over for gear. I already factored in the 15K it would cost to buy a Force 3 Counterspelling Focus, so all that's left is the picking out of stuff.

I intended this character to be a SUPPORT caster. She is obviously going to be mostly terrible if she's the only caster in the party, but we've got about seven people in our playgroup, so niches are available for filling. I also felt that I could afford to do two different things because of the crazy efficiency of Kinesics. Straight out of the box, she's throwing 19 dice in a Con test. I picked the Shamanic tradition for one reason alone: Drain. Shamans resist with Charisma.

Thoughts?

EDIT: I've made a couple of updates.
