WalkerGrae Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 I relise it's a dumb question, but I'll post it anyway. Is Telekenisis visible? From what I can see it's a "Standard Power/Attack Power" that costs End so per page 71 it should be a visible power. Then I see the BOECV note that Psychokenesis is both visible and percieved by Mental Awareness. Then I think, usually when Telekenisis is portrayed in movies or TV it's not visible. I'd hate to use up extra points for an un-needed advantage but, as I see it, you have to add the Invisible Power Effects advantage if you want TK as it's usually portrayed.

RadeFox Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 Standard, its Visible. Think comics over movies. Though even in some movies its 'visible' , the things starts to rattle, and only one person in th area is staring at it intently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Neilson Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 What we classicvally think of as "Telekinesis" isn't the base power. It's more liky psychokinesis with the Invisible advantage (good luck buying that with a high STR! - ASIDE - since it only targets with Ego, maybe the advantage should be lower than +1) The base power is more like Green Lantern lifting the bad guy with a Power Ring hand, or lifting a speeding car over an obstacle with a Power Ring roadway.

Lord Liaden Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 Or causing plants to grow and grasp objects. Or animating the ground into giant hands etc. "Telekinesis" is more a designation of a game mechanic/effect than a description of an actual ability - there are many SFX that it could fit, which may look very different from each other.

Killer Shrike Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 You dont need full IPE; just IPE: Source only for +1/2. The effects of movie-TK are visible, just not the source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
