The psionic master has greater control over a specific form of non-living matter (such as water, earth, or metal) or the ability to affect a particular type of energy (like electricity, fire, or cold) while using the telekinesis power. This allows him to create minor effects related to what he controls—radio interference (electricity), putting out small fires (water), light small fires (fire)—as a free action.
The character also has three major effects which require an action to use. Using his element, he can:
- Create environmental effects which apply a −2 penalty to Trait rolls (−4 with a raise).
- Inflict 2d6 damage over the area (3d6 Mega Damage if exalted telekinesis is used).
- Dampen the energy or kinetic energy of the matter, causing attacks of that type to do only half damage within the area.
All effects occur within a Medium Burst Template (a Large Burst Template with exalted telekinesis) and require use of the telekinesis power, including a Psionics skill roll and normal ISP cost. When taking this Edge, the player selects an energy or form of matter to control; he can take this Edge multiple times, choosing a new type each time.
