(a successful save would still end the power.  I realize that neither this power nor the spell I posited above are as all-or-nothing as the novels; but they're far more reasonable game-wise)Also, in a Psi-Based system, "UnStill" would be a power one or two levels higher than Stilling.  I'd treat is much like a Dispel check, with the user of UnStill making a ManifesterLevel check (mabye give them an additional +1/2-3 PP Augment) against a DC of 10 + the Manifester Level of the person who used the Stilling effect.  Subtract the DC from the result to get the maximum Manifester Level restored.Example:Bob (Manifester Level 10) is captured by Jane (Manifester Level 12) and over the course of a few days (and several manifestations of Stilling) is totally Stilled (Manifester Level 0)A few weeks later Bob (currently ML 0) meets Jim, (ML 14) who knows UnStill.Jim manifests UnStill and gets (ML=14)+(d20=12) on his check for a total of 26 vs a DC of (Base=10)+(ML=12)=22.  26-22=4, meaning Jim has restored Bob to a Manifester Level of 4.A couple levels later Jim tries again, rolling really well (ML=16)+(d20=18)=34-(DC=22)=12, restoring Bob's full Manifester Level of 10.</blockquote>
