Telekinesis Sphere

When you move a target with telekinesis you can double the distance you can move it that turn by having all of its movement be in a straight line. An object that moves at least 10 feet this way before being used as a Bludgeon is counted as having made a charge and gains the related +2 on its attack roll. If you also possess the Dancing Weapon talent, you may apply charge-related feats and combat talents to your charge with that Bludgeon.

You may use your telekinetic force to protect and stabilize creatures and objects that you are lifting.

When lifting an object with your telekinesis, you may grant it a +1 bonus to hardness and a +1 deflection bonus to AC, +1 per 5 caster levels, and cause it to take no penalties from the broken condition.

When lifting a creature with your telekinesis, you may grant it DR/piercing equal to 1/2 your caster level. When using a creature or object as a Bludgeon, you may choose for the object itself to not suffer damage from being used as a Bludgeon.

You may grant these benefits as part of a Sustained Force, as part of or independent of any actual telekinetic movement.

You may add your casting ability modifier to all damage rolls made with a Bludgeon. Additionally, your Bludgeons count as either a ranged, thrown, or melee weapon under your control, as determined by the caster. A caster may change a Bludgeon from one to the other once per round but a single Bludgeon cannot count as more than one at the same time. You may make attack actions with your Bludgeon, though doing so is not combinable with making a full attack, unless using Divided Mind or Mobile Bludgeon. You may apply appropriate feats and combat talents such as Power Attack to your actions with that Bludgeon, and if treating an object as a melee weapon, the Bludgeon has a reach and threatens the area around it as if wielded by a creature of the same size as the Bludgeon.

You are considered to be wielding the weapon for the purpose of making attacks of opportunity or flanking, but do not suffer penalties for oversized or undersized weapons.

^{Author's Note: You cannot use attack actions with a full attack using Dancing Weapon. You have the option of one or the other.}

You may lift multiple targets at once (up to 1 + 1 per caster level) whose combined size does not exceed your maximum telekinesis size. You may treat these objects as one effective object for the purpose of Bludgeoning a creature, or you may make multiple Bludgeons per round (although you cannot make more attacks in a round than would otherwise be allowed with your base attack bonus and any respective feats or combat talents if you possess the Dancing Weapon talent, applying penalties for full attacks as normal). If you spend a spell point to use Hostile Lift or Sustained Force, it may apply it to as many of these objects as applicable as if each were a different effect. You may also spend a spell point when using the Steal, Telekinetic Maneuver, or Telekinetic Push talents to affect multiple targets at once (up to one additional target per 2 caster levels, minimum 1), although you cannot affect an individual target more than once per round with any push or combat maneuver.

Whenever you could perform a Bludgeon as part of a standard action or greater, you may instead violently slam the target under your telekinesis into another object or against a surface (such as a wall or floor). The target takes damage appropriate to its size, as though used as a Bludgeon, plus an additional 1d6 bludgeoning damage per 2 caster levels and must succeed at a Reflex save or fall prone from the force of the impact. The impacted object or surface takes the damage appropriate to the target’s size but does not take any additional damage from this effect.

If you possess the Acceleration talent, you may choose to have the impacted object or surface also take this effect’s additional damage (in addition to the Bludgeon’s damage). In addition, you may use this talent when performing a single Bludgeon as part of a standard action or greater. Instead of making an attack roll, both the Bludgeon and the target must succeed at a Reflex save or take damage appropriate to the Bludgeon’s size plus this effect’s additional damage and fall prone.

Using this talent ends your telekinesis on the creature or object used to perform the Bludgeon.

You may use telekinesis to perform fine manipulations, such as turning a key in a lock, unrolling a scroll, or tying a knot. You may attempt appropriate skill checks (such as Craft, Disable Device, Profession, or Performance checks that involve objects or instruments, but not Sleight of Hand or other checks involving attended objects unless you possess the Steal talent) at a distance, as well as Heal checks to perform first aid. When performing a skill at a distance you may use your casting ability modifier in place of the normal ability modifier, but you also suffer a -5 penalty to the skill check and cannot take 10. You may also use Sustained Force to maintain complicated, non-combat procedures such as making knives prepare dinner, make a lute play itself, or making a shovel dig a ditch.

When using telekinesis to lift a creature or creatures and spending a spell point to create a Sustained Force on them, you may grant that creature the ability to control their own movement for the duration of the Sustained Force. They gain a fly speed equal to your telekinesis speed, with maneuverability (perfect).

When affecting a target with a Sustained Force, they no longer need to remain within your telekinesis range.

When using your telekinesis to lift a shield, you may apply its shield bonus to the armor class of anything in its square, though this does not stack with any shield bonus they already possess. A shield sustained with Sustained Force still grants its shield bonus, and may be directed to follow a given individual or target. If you possess the Orbit talent, you may choose a single shield in orbit of you and add its shield bonus to your armor class. If you possess the Dancing Weapon talent, you may apply shield related feats and combat talents (such as Shield Focus) to any shield you are lifting.

Author's Note: The floating shield talent does not count as wielding a shield for any purpose, positive or negative (including ACP, maximum Dexterity, etc, but also magical qualities). This means it can grant a shield bonus to someone benefiting from the monk's AC bonus class feature without penalizing them, but also cannot be used as a shield to perform shield bashes, utilize most abilities from the Shield sphere, etc.

When you are using an object or weapon as a Bludgeon, it is effectively one size larger for determining how much damage it deals. In addition, any time you would perform a combat maneuver using telekinesis (such as with Steal or Telekinetic Maneuver) you add a +2 bonus to your CMB and CMD.

By concentrating your telekinetic powers on an area you may effectively increase or decrease the area’s gravity. As a standard action you may alter the gravity of a 10-foot radius + 5 feet per five caster levels sphere anywhere within range of your telekinesis. As long as you concentrate, the area becomes either an area of heavy gravity or an area of light gravity. You may also change the type of gravity in the area as a move action. This talent can be used to alter areas that are already heavy or light gravity, either altering them to normal gravity or doubling their effects, but cannot be used in areas of no gravity or subjective gravity. You may spend a spell point to sustain this effect with Sustained Force.

Heavy Gravity: In heavy gravity areas, Acrobatics, Climb, Ride, and Swim checks incur a -2 circumstance penalty, as do all attack rolls. All item weights are effectively doubled, which might affect a character’s speed. Weapon ranges are halved. A character’s Strength and Dexterity scores are not affected. Characters that fall in areas of heavy gravity take 1d10 points of damage for each 10 feet fallen, to a maximum of 20d10 points of damage.

Light Gravity: Characters in an area of light gravity gain a +2 circumstance bonus on attack rolls and on Acrobatics and Ride checks. All items weigh half as much, and weapon ranges double. Strength and Dexterity do not change as a result of light gravity, but what you can do with such scores does change. Falling characters in light gravity take 1d4 points of damage for each 10 feet fallen (maximum 20d4).

As a standard action, you can create an area of gravity that either pulls objects in or keeps them out. Select either yourself or a spot within range of your telekinesis, and choose either to attract or repel.

If you choose attract, all creatures and unattended objects of up to your telekinesis limit within 10 feet + 5 feet per 5 caster levels of the chosen spot are drawn in a straight line to the unoccupied space nearest to the center of the effect. Unwilling creatures are subjected to a drag combat maneuver using your caster level plus your casting ability modifier as your CMB. A creature in the area of this effect cannot move away from the center of the effect except by attempting the drag combat maneuver as a move action against a CMD equal to 10 plus your caster level plus your casting ability modifier, moving the indicated distance away from the center of the gravity well.

If you choose repel, this functions the same way except creatures and unattended objects within the area are pushed in a straight line away from the center of the effect, and creatures are subjected to and perform bull rush combat maneuvers instead of drag combat maneuvers.

This effect lasts as long as you concentrate (pulling or pushing creatures each round on your turn) and can be maintained with Sustained Force.

Your telekinesis speed increases to 30 feet + 5 feet per 2 caster levels per round.

When you miss with a Bludgeon attack, you may spend a spell point as an immediate action to make the Bludgeon home back in on the target. For a number of rounds equal to your caster level the object single-mindedly moves towards the target without you needing to concentrate on it, taking the shortest path as it attempts to attack them each turn. A Bludgeon directed this way can only make one attack per turn, and once it makes a single successful attack it stops pursuing the target and drops to the ground unless you begin concentrating on it again. If you possess the Divided Mind talent you may pay a single spell point to make multiple objects pursue a target, but as soon as any one of them makes a successful attack, they all stop pursuing.

You may choose to maintain concentration on your telekinesis as a swift action. However, targets of your telekinesis remain motionless while you concentrate on them this way, hovering in place. You cannot move them, use them to Bludgeon, or direct them to perform tasks. Dancing weapons that hover do not threaten their range or provide flanking bonuses, and you may not apply the benefits of Telekinetic Crush to hovering targets.

This talent cannot be used to concentrate on a Hostile Lift or Kinetic Field.

Increase the range of your telekinesis by one step (close to medium, medium to long). You may select this talent multiple times. The effects stack.

You may spend a spell point to apply your telekinesis as kinetic energy across an area instead of directly onto targets. This fills an area with a radius of up to 10 feet + 5 feet per five caster levels with kinetic energy, which manifests in one of the following ways, each of which may be made into a Sustained Force.

An area cannot be affected by more than one field at a time:

• You may make all squares in the area, including the air, become difficult terrain. Moving through this area causes fire damage equal to 1/2 your caster level (minimum 1) per 5 feet of movement due to intense friction.
• You may cause any projectiles or thrown objects up to one size smaller than your telekinesis limit that pass through this area to be affected as if by Catch.
• You may cause creatures or objects up to one size smaller than your telekinesis limit that enter this area to move up to half your telekinesis speed in one direction, chosen when the field is created, to a maximum distance of the edge of the field. Unwilling targets may attempt a Will saving throw to resist, and if a creature fails this save and attempts to move against the direction of field they must first spend movement equal to half your telekinesis speed to overcome the effects of the field. Unattended objects move on your turn and are not fast enough to cause harm. Creatures do not move until their turn.

You may take this talent a second time. If you do, you may form the kinetic field such that it occupies any of the following areas as an alternative to its normal shape. These areas carry the normal effect of the kinetic field that you dictate. [Alienist HB]

• A wall up to 20 feet wide per caster level in a straight line and up to 20 feet high.
• An area centered on you with a 10-foot radius + 5 feet per 5 caster level. This area moves with you.
• An area shaped as you choose made out of contiguous 5-foot cubes, up to a maximum of 5 cubes + 1 cube per 2 caster levels.

You no longer need line of sight to use telekinesis on an object or creature, as long as you target the correct space the target is in. If you target an incorrect square your action is wasted, though you retain any spell points you would have spent.

In addition, you may spend a spell point to gain 30 feet blindsense for one minute per caster level.

When you use your telekinesis to make a Bludgeon attack, you may continue to move the object after the attack roll is made if it has any movement remaining. This means you may make multiple Bludgeon attacks in a round, though not more than you would normally be allowed with your base attack bonus, and applying penalties for full attacks as normal. You may choose to forfeit any remaining movement in order to make a full attack with a single Bludgeon against a single target. If you possess the Dancing Weapon talent, you may gain extra attacks from feats and combat talents.

When you lift an object with your telekinesis and move it into your square or drop an item you are holding, you may place it in a passive orbit around you. An object in orbit drifts slowly around you, moving with you when you move as if you carried it, and does not require concentration to remain in orbit, though it does nothing except drift passively. At any point you may begin concentrating on it again, directing it and using it normally with your telekinesis, or you may pick up an item in orbit as a free action. You may have multiple objects around you at one time so long as their total size does not exceed the size limit of your telekinesis. If you possess the Dancing Weapon talent, you are considered to be wielding any object in your orbit and may use them to make attacks, though they are still made through the Dancing Weapon talent. Items caught with Catch may immediately be placed into orbit. You may not use Hostile Lift in conjunction with Orbit.

Note: Dancing Weapon specifies only 'wielding' in the context of a weapon; you can bash someone over the head with that implement, but no it does not mean you get its implement bonuses while in your orbit.

You may spend a spell point to trap the target in a box made of telekinetic force. On a failed Reflex save, the target becomes trapped for 1 round per caster level, effectively sealing the target off from all other creatures. The trapped target cannot move from their space except by means of dimensional travel, such as teleport from the Warp sphere, but is still trapped even if moved by such an effect. The target treats all other creatures as though they had total cover against it, and all other creatures treat the target as though it has total cover against them.

A trapped target may attempt a Reflex saving throw or Escape Artist check as a full-round action with a DC equal to this effect’s DC to escape and end this effect. If the target takes damage while trapped, they may attempt a check to escape as a free action which can be taken even if it is not their turn.

You may use the Catch function of telekinesis to block attacks with melee weapons, though they retain their hold on their weapon even if you successfully block their attack. However, if you possess the Steal talent as well, you may immediately use it on that weapon as part of a successful Catch. Your telekinesis must be specially tuned towards the task, so when you ready an action to Catch (or when you spend a spell point on the catch field option of the Quick Reactions talent, if you possess it) you must specify whether your telekinesis can intercept melee or ranged attacks.

Increase the maximum-sized object or creature you may affect with telekinesis by 1 size category.

You may spend a spell point to make a telekinetic Catch as an immediate action. If you possess the Telekinetic Push talent, you may spend a spell point to perform pushes as an immediate action.

If you possess Kinetic Field, you may spend a spell point as a standard action to fold kinetic energy around yourself to create a catch field. This catch field moves with you and lasts 1 round per 3 caster levels (minimum 1). Once per round this stops a projectile aimed at you as if you were using Catch. You cannot have more than one use of this ability active at any one time.

When you stop a ranged attack with telekinetic Catch, you may immediately fling it back at the attacker if they are in range of your telekinesis. Resolve this as a standard Bludgeon attack using the object you were attacked with. Return may not be used in conjunction with the catch field option of Quick Reactions.

As a standard action, you may make a single weapon attack in conjunction with using a lift. This casting cannot be reduced below a standard action, and does not provoke attacks of opportunity, unless as usual if making a ranged attack. If the target is struck by the attack, it is also affected by lift. If using a scatter weapon, the lift only applies to a single target, chosen at the time of attack. The target of your attack must be a legal target for your lift.

You may use telekinesis on attended objects. You may perform a disarm or steal combat maneuver against a target using telekinesis, using your caster level plus your casting ability modifier as your CMB. You may use telekinesis to perform Sleight of Hand checks at a distance as well and may use your casting ability modifier in place of your Dexterity modifier for this purpose, but you also suffer a -5 penalty to the skill check and cannot take 10. If the maneuver or skill check is successful, you may move the lifted object up to your telekinesis distance in any direction, but may not use it as a Bludgeon as part of the same action.

Whenever you perform a Bludgeon, instead of making an attack roll, you may choose to swing the Bludgeon in a sweeping arc at the target. The target must succeed at a Reflex save or both the target and the Bludgeon take damage depending on the Bludgeon’s size. If you possess the Dancing Weapon talent, you may use abilities which would apply additional damage or effects to a single attack action to the Bludgeon damage dealt to the target with this talent. If an effect would impose a penalty to an attack roll, such as Lancer sphere impale or the Power Attack feat, you instead reduce the DC of the Reflex saving throw by that amount.

Example: If you possess the Dancing Weapon talent, your Bludgeon damage could include additional damage from a Berserker sphere brutal strike, Duelist sphere blooded strike bleed damage, or the Vital Strike feat, but not other attack actions or effects which do not affect the Bludgeon’s damage, such as barrage or dual attack. Attack actions or effects which do not affect the Bludgeon's damage, such as barrage or dual attack, instead apply a penalty to the Bludgeon's saving throw.

When using your telekinesis on a target, you may crush it with your grip. Every round you maintain concentration you may deal 1d6 bludgeoning damage and an additional 1d6 per 5 caster levels. Alternatively, you may attempt a Strength check to break an object you are holding with your telekinesis, using your casting ability modifier instead of your Strength modifier and adding the size modifier from the largest-sized object you can lift with telekinesis. You may use this on sections of a larger object than you can lift with your telekinesis, allowing you to punch holes through walls or rip down doors so long as you can lift the targeted section.

You can use telekinesis to manipulate a target with more finesse than a Hostile Lift. You may target a creature with telekinesis to perform a bull rush, drag, reposition, trip, dirty trick, or grapple (upgrades to pin if the target is already grappled) combat maneuver against a target, ignoring size limitations. Use your caster level plus your casting ability modifier as your CMB. If grappling, your CMD is your telekinesis CMB + 10 and the target is allowed to attempt a Will save each round after the grapple is initiated to negate the effect, just as they can with Hostile Lift. These maneuvers do not provoke an attack of opportunity from the target. If grappling, you do not gain the grappled condition, and you cannot be knocked prone by failing a trip check.

You may throw your telekinetic power at an object, aiding or impeding its natural movement. As a readied action, you may push a projectile, creature, thrown object, or another caster’s Bludgeon up to one size larger than your telekinesis limit. If aiding, you may increase a weapon’s range increment by half your telekinesis speed and increase its effective size by 1 size category +1 per 5 caster levels for the purposes of dealing damage and determining if another caster may Catch the object with their own telekinesis. If aiding a creature, you may choose to instead grant it an enhancement bonus to its movement equal to 1/2 your telekinesis speed. You may also add 1d6 damage + 1d6 per 5 caster levels to the falling damage a target suffers. This ability may be used to cause damage to a target that was successfully tripped.

Alternatively, you may slow down a creature or object, cutting its movement speed in half. If the target is falling, this decreases their falling speed to 60 feet per round, allowing them to fall great distances without being hurt.

When you use the Catch function of your telekinesis, you may also choose to deflect an object instead of Catching it, causing it to simply miss instead of being lifted with telekinesis. Telekinetic Push still requires a spell point when used directly on hostile targets, but does not allow a Will save to negate, even when used with Catch, due to the briefer contact and more indirect force. Telekinetic Pushes cannot be sustained with Sustained Force.

You may use your telekinesis to mimic simple tools, such as shovels, hammers, or scissors by using your telekinesis as if manipulating an item of the appropriate size.

If you possess the Finesse talent, you may mimic tools associated with any of the listed skills, allowing you to Perform without an instrument or pick a lock without thieves tools. In addition, if you possess the Telekinetic Maneuver talent, when grappling a target you may choose to use the tie up grapple action to restrain them with telekinetic force instead of a rope.

A creature successfully tied up this way is bound and helpless, and must follow the tie up rules to escape their bonds. This restraining force lasts until broken by a successful combat maneuver, until they receive help from an outside force as a fullround action, or until you dismiss it. A target cannot attempt a Will save to negate the effects of these bonds, or a Strength check to break them.

You may also attack your enemies with pure telekinetic force. You may make Bludgeon attacks without an object, dealing bludgeoning or slashing damage as a Bludgeon of the size you specify, up to your telekinesis size limit. If you possess the Dancing Weapon talent, you may treat this Bludgeon attack as if it was made with a weapon you have proficiency with, sized up to your telekinesis size limit.

You can create a telekinetic connection between two objects of any size, tethering them together. As a standard action you can tether two targets within 30 feet of each other, preventing them from moving further than 30 feet from each other without either breaking the tether or dragging the other target with them. An unwilling creature gets a Reflex save to avoid being tethered. A creature dragging an object follows the normal carrying capacity and encumbrance rules, but must use the drag combat maneuver to drag an unwilling creature. The tether may be broken as a move action with a Strength check equal to the tether’s save DC. A tether lasts as long as you concentrate and an additional number of rounds after that equal to your caster level. You may spend a spell point to maintain a tether with Sustained Force.

You can use your telekinesis to ready yourself for any given situation. You may perform any of the following actions as a swift action:

• You may draw up to two sheathed weapons or items you are carrying (even if it is stored in a backpack or similar container) and put away up to two objects you are holding in your hands. In addition, you may don a single set of armor or robes and put away any robes or armor you are currently wearing, or swap out any number of smaller worn items (such as gloves, hats, or rings). Each individual item equipped or put away must fall within the size limit of your telekinesis.
• You can call a single unattended object that you can see within 20 feet + 5 feet per 5 caster levels instantly to your hand. The object must fall within your telekinesis size limit, and the object must be no more than a light load for you.
• You may load a ranged weapon you are wielding that has a reload time of a standard action or less. For reload times greater than a standard action, the reloading time is reduced by a standard action as it has been partially done.

Prerequisites: Telekinesis sphere (Effortless Telekinesis (advanced), Idle Concentration), caster level 10th

By spending two spell points, you may permanently affix a single object you are lifting with your telekinesis to a specific point in space. This is an instantaneous effect that binds the object to that specific point, preventing it from moving in any direction even due to gravity.

An unwilling creature lifted through the use of Hostile Lift gains an immediate opportunity to break your telekinetic hold with a Will save. If the save fails they remain held by your telekinesis, and must attempt a Reflex save to avoid being fixed in place permanently with no further saves. A creature affected by Affix can still take actions and can freely move their limbs, but cannot move away from the point they have been affixed to, even with teleportation effects.

Since this is an instantaneous effect, it cannot be dispelled. However, a successful application of telekinesis or brute force can break an object free with a magic skill check or Strength check against your MSD + 4. If applying your own telekinesis against an object you have affixed, you automatically succeed on your magic skill check. This effect can also be ended by the Make Whole advanced talent from the Life sphere, the Freedom (word) from the Fate sphere, or the freedom of movement spell.

Prerequisites: Telekinesis sphere (Affix (advanced), Effortless Telekinesis (advanced), Idle Concentration), caster level 15th.

When you affix a target permanently in place, you may spend an additional spell point to strengthen the effect by pinning them to astral leylines. A creature that has failed its Reflex save against being affixed must succeed at a third save or be rendered paralyzed for as long as they are affixed.

In addition, regardless of whether or not this additional save is failed, breaking a target free that has been affixed in this way requires a successful magic skill check or Strength check against your MSD + 10. In addition, a telekinesis effect or the Freedom word with a lower caster level than the affixing will always be insufficient and cannot break a target free.

Prerequisites: Telekinesis sphere (Telekinetic Maneuver), caster level 5th.

You may allow an object you are lifting to perform a bull rush, drag, reposition, trip, dirty trick, or grapple combat maneuver in place of an attack as part of a Bludgeon. Such objects may maintain a grapple in place of making a bludgeon attack and deal their Bludgeon damage on a successful grapple. Such objects have a CMB equal to your caster level + your casting ability modifier + any size modifier for the object and a CMD equal to this value +10.

Prerequisites: Telekinesis sphere (Telekinetic Crush), caster level 15th.

As either a stand-alone standard action or as part of maintaining a Hostile Lift, you may spend 2 spell points to suffocate a target within your telekinesis range. The target must succeed at a Fortitude save or have its hit points drop to 0 and fall unconscious on its next turn as if it had failed a Constitution check against suffocation. Next round, the target must succeed at a second Fortitude save or drop to -1 hit points begin dying.

In the round following that they must succeed at another Fortitude save or suffocate and die. Succeeding on any of these saves prevents further saves and stops the effects from worsening, but does not negate the effects of any previously failed saves. This talent only affects living creatures that must breathe.

Prerequisites: Telekinesis sphere (Quick Reactions, Telekinetic Push), caster level 10th.

You can apply an opposing force at the right times, canceling out offensive forces. As an immediate action whenever you would take damage, you may spend two spell points to negate that damage. You may use this to respond to energy or magic based attacks, and you may even use it to insulate you against environmental hazards (such as acid rain or lava) but it is ineffective against damage from internal or nonphysical sources (such as bleed damage or a mental attack).

Prerequisites: Telekinesis sphere, caster level 10th.

When you use your telekinesis to lift creatures or objects and spend a spell point to create a Sustained Force on them, the Sustained Force persists for 1 hour per caster level instead of 1 minute per caster level.

Prerequisites: Telekinesis sphere (Powerful Telekinesis), caster level 5th.

By spending a spell point you can further advance the strength of your telekinesis. Increase the maximum sized object you can affect with telekinesis by 1 size category. This effect stacks with the benefits of Powerful Telekinesis. However, the action required to concentrate on the effect is increased by one step, and you may not spend a spell point to maintain it with Sustained Force.

You may spend an additional spell point to increase your capacity by another size, but doing so demands all of your mental focus. You may only use the basic capability of telekinesis to move objects, and cannot use this in conjunction with Hostile Lift or Bludgeon.

Prerequisites: Telekinesis sphere (Gravity Shift), caster level 15th.

When you use Gravity Shift, you may spend two spell points (instead of one, if you are already spending a spell point for Gravity Shift, otherwise you must spend both) to have greater control over gravity. You may create or manipulate areas of no gravity or objective gravity, and may apply any gravity trait to any area. Creatures in the area may attempt a Reflex save to hang onto an adjacent surface whenever you change gravity.

No Gravity: Individuals in an area of no gravity merely float in space, unless other resources are available to provide a direction for gravity’s pull.

Objective Gravity: The strength of objective gravity is the same as normal, but the direction is not the traditional “down” toward the ground. It may be down towards any solid object, at an angle to the surface of the ground itself, or even upward.

Prerequisites: Telekinesis sphere (Acceleration, Greater Speed), caster level 10th.

You may spend 2 spell points as a standard action to fling an object you are currently lifting at immense speeds, tying it to a target or location within line of sight, causing it to immediately pass out of your control as it races towards that target, to a maximum distance of 5 miles. This cannot be used to hurl objects into the air nor to attempt to hurl them in an arc for greater distance; the targeted creature, object, or location must be within direct line of sight and line of effect.

By making a successful ranged touch attack, using your casting ability modifier in place of your Dexterity modifier, against the target you deal double the normal Bludgeon damage to it. If the attack misses, the object strikes the center of the target’s space. The object’s impact into the target or their space releases a powerful shockwave and everyone in a 30-foot radius + 5 feet per five caster levels, including the initial target, takes 1d6 damage per 2 caster levels and is dazed for one round. A Fortitude save negates the dazed condition, though the initial target is not allowed a saving throw if the touch attack succeeded. Objects fired using Linear Acceleration suffer the full initial and secondary damage of the attack.

Prerequisites: Telekinesis sphere (Finesse, Telekinetic Maneuver), caster level 10th.

When you lift a creature with your telekinesis you may spend a spell point to take precise control over their physical form. You can force them to run, jump, manipulate objects, and wield weapons, but you cannot force them to use special abilities such as spells that are not a function of bodily movement, and cannot take control of their vocal cords, though you can prevent them from making sounds. If you force the subject to engage in combat, use an attack bonus equal to your base attack plus your casting ability modifier, and substitute your casting ability modifier for any ability modifiers on damage rolls. In addition, substitute your casting ability modifier for the subject’s Dexterity modifier when determining armor class. When performing actions that would require a skill check, use your skill ranks plus your casting ability modifier for the check.

Since the subject is only under your physical control, on their turn they can still take purely mental actions. You must use Hostile Lift to affect an unwilling creature, and they are allowed the normal Will saves to negate the effect.
