I might bring Grace to another RP. I enjoy Fantasy Grace

Reaper of Pickles sounds like an amazing Metalica comedy cover band

Adam is almost a person now

ONE PUUUUUUUUUUUUNCH

Adam Egen - City T - Welcome Relief

With his charge cared for, Adam stepped away from the group. They obviously had their own problems to deal with, and nature was calling in a way only he could answer. He could already feel the sweat on his brow from the pressure. He hated venting around other people, since mostly it looked like showing off, but needs must.

About thirty feet from anybody else, Adam let loose, flames crawling along his exposed skin until he was completely engulfed, building stronger and stronger until he was practically a pillar of fire. All that pent up energy stung coming out, and he felt like a soda can finally opened after being shook, but eventually the pressure eased, and the torrent slowed to a stop leaving him to collapse to his knees in relief.

"That is the last damn time I take in an entire building fire." He muttered to himself.

After the End

My point was we weren't discussing it because we were unhappy. At least I wasn't. It was an interesting topic and right up until the very end a mature and enjoyable discussion.

@Sanctus Spooki

That comment wasn't meant specifically at you. I'm often frustrated at people who raise a fuss about certain powers, and a bit of that slipped into the discussion.

After the End

I don't remember discussing how a power might or might not work being against the rules, but whatever...

After the End

It's already been said it would be weak telekinesis. Using it creatively is the reason we RP in the first place. If you can bring a house down realistically with the amount of ability you're allowed, that deserves kudos, not condemnation. You seem to forget there isn't any "winning" at RP. There's no reason to cheat. That's why I don't get why everyone is all up in a tizzy about people being "overpowered". If the GM allows a power, just deal with it. It's not unfair because we aren't competing.

On top of that, it's incredibly easy to define weak telikenetics as "as much as you could physically carry at a limited range". If you couldn't break a support column with your bare hands, you can't do it with telikenesis.

After the End

Actually, telikenetics are usually confined to solid objects with a noticeable amount of mass. This prevents them from moving insubstantial things like fog and air, and in some cases liquids too. On top of that, less power often means less fine control, so even if you can MOVE a grenade at 100 meters (which is unlikely at such a low form of telekinesis, more realistically it'll be around 2-10 meters) you can't necicarilly pull the pin or pull a trigger, or even hold it in the air. The most likely scenario for telekinesis in this RP is gross control in short bursts, such as throwing an object across the room or pulling something towards you. Useful in the right circumstances, but not game breaking.

Also there are abilities that are WAY easier to find loopholes in. Telepathy, for starters.
