Rank 3: Personal Enhancement.  You can affect and improve your own system.  (modestly) increased reflexes, raising your intelligence, shielding yourself against electrical effect etc.TechnokinesisRank 1: Modify.  Very basic stuff: Turn the machine on or off, (blindly) erase data etc.Rank 2: Tap.  You can read the raw data contained in the device and make holistic evaluations and modifications.  At that level you can do the whol hacker schtick.---Psychokineticsmisc.Collateral effect; PK powers are not pure creation of the psion and usually draw on the environment.  So if you create ice, you suck the surrounding moisture out of the air and there isn't enough, it doesn't work.  Same with fire and oxygen.Extreme Success; result of 10s on the psi roll translate to an extra damage dice when attacking with psi.Physical Effect: Victims can resist physically direct PK attacks.  Might can be used to resist TK, for example.PyrokinesisRank 1: Heat Distribution.  That's mostly used to diffuse heat and therefore protect yourself and your allies from it.  I'm sure a clever player can fund other use for it.Rank 2: Heat Gas.  It does what it says.  It can be used to do bashing damage by heating the air around target(s) or explode a tire by increasing the pressure (heating the air inside).Rank 3: Ignite.  If there is combustible around you can start a sustained fire but you can simply use the power to do a fireball effect in the air.Rank 4: Liquefy.  You can liquefy solids.  ---Telepathy; Ithuriel has the book so I'll spare you and me the descriptions.</blockquote>
