<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*Rears back and throws my fist forward, toward it. The beam curves around the trajectory of my blow, then continues on its prior course, albeit shifted slightly, and rockets past me while a huge buildup of pressure slams into you, through you, and into the gate directly behind you*

*After a few moments of sustained pressure, the beam melts a red-hot circle through the unbroken half of the gate*
