Legacy Power: Hand of the departed

Mental prowess that will stop your heart. Telekinesis is as versatile as it is deadly.

A 6 Gift Telekinesis Power used by Gideon Lockhart, created by leonvanderblight.

Description

Gideon's eyes glow purple as his hand extends, and clenches and an invisible hand seems to clench around the object in question.

System

By concentrating fully, you are able to interact with targets you can see at a distance of 75 feet. Rolls for Actions taken with these targets use Dexterity - Reason: Mental force is emulated 1-1 with actions performed by his actual body so they need to be done accurately. in place of Brawn and Intellect - Reason: He has to imagine *how* it's actually done still and how clear his mental picture is determines how much finesse he can use. in place of Dexterity. The effective rating for these Attributes is limited to 3 for Actions that would use Brawn and 3 for Actions that would use Dexterity.

You cannot engage in attacks with this Power, and you are limited to actions that a standard human could take with their bare hands, were they close to the object (no lockpicking or surgery by default). Any actions taken on an Animate target require contested rolls.

If the object passes out of sight, you lose your hold on it.

You must maintain concentration while using this Power. That means you can only move at a slow walk, and cannot split your Action between using the Power and other Actions. If you are Injured or interrupted, you must roll Mind Difficulty 9 to maintain Concentration. If you fail, you cannot use this Power for a minimum of 6 - Intellect rounds.
