Description
With this devotion, the psionicist can extend her phasing powers to an object. A boulder blocking a tunnel can be phased in order to allow passage, an enemy’s sword can be rendered harmless, or a building can be forced to collapse by reducing its supports to an insubstantial form.
The larger an object, the more difficult it is to phase. The rule of thumb is 1 PSP per 10 pounds, with a minimum cost of 10 PSPs. Phasing an object does not harm it. An object being phased cannot be affected by any physical force, but can be affected by other phased objects. A psionicist can use this power on his own sword to make it capable of harming another phased character.
Phased objects retain any momentum they had when they were affected, so a catapult missile will continue in its trajectory—it just won’t do any damage when it strikes its target. Phased objects that were not moving stay where they were.
If the object is being worn or carried by an unwilling subject, the victim may attempt a saving throw versus spells to avoid the effect.
