Movement of the Mind (revised)

By Jason Levine (pkitty@cris.com)

Description

This path lets the Thaumaturgist mentally lift, move, and control objects; another term for it is telekinesis. Objects may be manipulated as if in the vampire's hands; axes may be swung, guns may be fired, etc. If this is used on a living being, they may resist the power with a Willpower roll (difficulty equal to the character's difficulty); each success subtracts one success from the Movement of the Mind roll. This power requires total concentration; nothing else may be done.

For all powers below, the successes determine how fast the object can be moved in one turn.

1 success	one foot
2 successes	one yard
3 successes	three yards
4 successes	ten yards
5 successes	twenty yards
