"Every step forward is a step towards sand shark!"
A 1 Gift Telekinesis Power used by Fuoshu Be, created by T3K.
The basics of sandbending, taught by the many Si Wong tribes of the Si Wong desert. It utilizes not the rough, solid earth. Instead, in order to traverse the desert, they have learned the ways of maneuvering the loose sand around them to move fast and strike hard. With the basics, you can blind people, create gravelly cuts and small barriers, but it is not so advanced that you can use it to sail on the sand or create tornados.
By concentrating fully, you are able to interact with targets you can see at a distance of 5 feet. Rolls for Actions taken with these targets use Dexterity in place of Brawn and Intellect 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.
