[QUOTE="Elric, post: 3626918, member: 1139"] Evil Eye is probably weaker than your original Mental Blast power, but I really love the flavor. 1) I'm not sure if Subtle is necessary on Evil Eye. Since it's a Mental power, by default it isn't noticeable except to characters with appropriate super-senses (pg 68). In this case, Subtle might mean that the target doesn't know where the pain they are now feeling is coming from, but that's hard to square with Sense-Dependent's auto-reflex save (and the strange "unconsciously saving" that's present in d20). If they didn't know that looking at you was causing pain, why would they get a Reflex save in the first place? It's also possible that Subtle is intended to make the power undetectable by the super-senses that would normally detect it (per the second rank of Subtle, page 110). It depends how you envision the power. 2) Did you intend to take Magical Awareness (Radius, Accurate) instead of what the Mystic has (Magical Awareness: Radius, Extended, Acute)? I have to imagine that being able to target magical things in combat without seeing them (Accurate) is less useful than Acute/Extended, but this is obviously your call (Acute is like hearing- sufficient to know where something is coming from and fine details about it, but not to aim a Blast at it). Silly) Continuous Transmutation should help get you a really rocking costume- how about an [i]emerald-studded[/i] cape? Also, have you considered renaming your Telekinesis power Viridian's Invisible Crushing Hand? [/QUOTE]
