Wall of Ectoplasm

Discipline: Metacreativity; Level: Psion 3
Manifesting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Effect: Solid wall whose area is up to one 5ft. square/level, or a sphere or hemisphere with a radius up to 1ft./level
Duration: 1 minute/level (D)
Saving Throw: None; Power Resistance: No
Psi Points: 5
You draw roiling ectoplasm into the world, fashioning it into a barrier and imbuing it with solidity. It cannot move once formed, even if its initial placement would defy gravity (such as placing the sphere in midair). It is one inch thick per four manifester levels. Each five-foot square of wall has 10 HP per inch of thickness and hardness 5. A section of the wall whose HP falls to 0 is breached, but this does not take down the rest of the wall. A creature trying to break through the wall can also do so with a Strength check, DC 15 +2 per inch of thickness.
The barrier is solid and opaque, breaking line of sight and line of effect. If you create a flat plane, all segments must be at least partially within range. If you create a sphere or hemisphere, its center must be within range. The wall must be unbroken when manifested. If any creatures or objects are interrupting the surface, the power fails and the psi points are wasted.
Augment: You can augment this power in any of the following ways:

1. For every two additional psi points you spend, increase the hardness of the wall by 1.
2. If you spend 5 additional psi points, the range of this power becomes Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level).
