Parakinesis Cantrip

E/F/M:

Parakinesis has an Effect which enables the subject the ability to touch an object and move it a shod distance without equal Physical force exerted on his or her part Such subjects must be able to expend some small amount of physical energyÑsay a slight nudge with a anger, toe, etc.ÑIn order to cause the parakinetic force Effect to operate. Motive force compels the object in a straight line according to the will of the subject and the direction of the Physical exertion. Only the velocity of motive forte can, to some small extent. be affected thereafter. The size and weight of the object which can be moved is limited by the Dweomercneft K/S STEEP in this Sub-Area of the caster, and the distance the object will move is likewise determined by the caster's STEEP. For each point of STEEP possessed by the caster. the subject is able to make one pound to move one foot. As the weight of the object decreases, the distance it may be moved increasesÑand vice versa. Thus. while a 50 pound object could be made to move 50 feet by a subject with a 50 STEEP point Parakinesis Casting Effect active, an item weighing only five pounds could be moved 500 feet, or a 500 pound object could be moved five feet Velocity control of an object moving under this dweomer extends beyond the Casting's Time duration for initial motive Forte, for the object moved can be at a controlled velocity of 16 feet or less per second, or it can be unchecked. In controlled movement, subjects must concentrate each CT they move an object in the direction desk.. When movement is uncontrolled, the subject merely imparts the motive Force, and the object begins to move with increasing velocity. But even at unchecked velocity this is to gradually accelerating speed at 16 feet per second squared. (The formula Isi d 'hat!, where where equals the total distance traveled, 're equals acceleration, and equals time passage in seconds). Thus, In 1 CT such an object could travel a maximum of 72 feet. In two Critical Tams that same object could travel 288 feet so an object moving 500 feet at unchecked velocity would lake approximately 8 seconds to reach its maximum distance- Any impact along the course of movement of the object will cause damage equal to 1D3 per 10 feet traveled, times an Exposure roll (and possibly adjusted for object size, at the GM's option).
