This does not apply to status caused by an external force holding you, simply when you lack agency to do it yourself. While telekinetically controlling yourself you count as having a Strength or Dexterity score equal to it normal score, or 10, whichever is lower. Add [[SRD:Control Body|''control body'']] to your spells known. When you cast this spell it is fully augmented. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If you have Telekinetic Strength, use your Charisma Score as your Strength Score for all purposes while using Telekinetic Puppet. Also use Charisma instead of Wisdom for Will saves. | ||
| + | |||

| + | |||
| + | If you have Telekinetic Durability, use your Wisdom Score as your Constitution Score for all purposes while using Telekinetic Puppet. You still die when your Constitution Score becomes 0, but you do not take penalties for it decreasing while using Telekinetic Puppet. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''Telekinetic Combat''' | ||
| + | ''Magehand'' | ||
| + | While mystically focused, you may make attacks with weapons (or improvised weapons) telekinetically at range, attacking as a standard action or full attack action as normal. When doing so, use your Caster level as your base attack bonus. You can attack directly with telekinetic power, treat this as attacking with an unarmed strike (or natural/feral strike weapon if you possess one). You may perform combat maneuvers as per the ''telekinesis'' spell, except you use Charisma for Strength and Intelligence for Dexterity. | ||
| + | |||
| + | You may expend your Mystic focus to use the Violent Thrust version of [[SRD:Telekinesis|''telekinesis'']], except it is uncapped by caster level, you use your caster level as your base attack bonus, and you add your magehand Heavy Load to the amount of weight you can move. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''Improved Telekinesis''' | ||
| + | ''must know and be able to cast telekinesis, Magehand and/or Unseen Servant'' | ||
| + | The amount of weight and speed at which you can move things with the Sustained Force and Volatile Thrust versions of ''telekinesis'', magehand, or unseen servant doubles. The base range of magehand and unseen servant improves to medium (100ft +10/lv). | ||
| + | |||
| + | If you have Unseen Servant, a Servant may maintain concentration on ''telekinesis'' for you and gain a +4 bonus to caster level when casting ''telekinesis'' and similar spells. You may expend your mystic focus to double the bonus to ''telekinesis' caster level to +8. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If you have Magehand, you can multi-task, taking a standard action, to perform two telekinesis based actions, provided they each would normally take a standard action or less to perform, for example you could hold up a bridge, while using violent thrust to push an enemy off it, with a single standard action. In order to multi-task you must make a Concentration check with a DC equal to 15 + 5 x the number of effects. You may perform 1 + (Highest Spell grade /2 (min. 1)) actions with a standard action this way. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''Greater Telekinesis''' | ||
| + | ''Improved Telekinesis'' | ||
| + | When you cast ''telekinesis'', you can maintain concentration on it as a swift action and it does not end if you use the violent thrust ability. You can choose to use a new maneuver each round. There is no maximum caster level cap. | ||
| + | You gain one additional maneuver, which acts as violent thrust to all creatures in range and launches them away from the caster. Using this version ends the spell. | ||

You can command all of them with a single action, each may perform a different action. When you expend your mystic focus to use telekinesis, you may target a number of creatures with the combat maneuver option equal to the number of Servants you can have, and target objects and creatures to be thrown can be further apart than 10ft if they are within the range of your Servant.
Magehand Grade 1 spell, must know mage hand You are under a permanent mage hand effect as long as you maintain your mystic focus. The weight of an object that can be affected is a Light Load, using your Charisma score as your Strength score. Complex actions are possible as long as they could be performed with one hand, use your Intelligence instead of Dexterity, and Charisma instead of Strength for checks to perform these actions. You cannot use magehand to perform attacks.
Telekinetic Tricks Magehand When using magehand, you may perform actions that require two hands. You can move objects up to 30 feet per round instead of 15. You can expend your mystic focus to use telekinesis except the duration is one round and you may only use the combat maneuver or violent thrust options. In addition, as long as you maintain your mystic focus you can use your Intelligence instead of your Dexterity score for dexterity checks, dexterity based skill checks, and in place of dexterity for attack and damage rolls.
Telekinetic Strength Magehand When using magehand, you can lift more weight. You can lift Medium and Heavy Loads, but doing so reduces the speed at which you can move objects (medium = 2/3, and Heavy = 1/3). In addition, as long as you maintain your mystic focus you can use your Charisma instead of your strength score for strength checks, strength based skill checks, in place of strength for attack and damage rolls, and determining carrying capacity.
Telekinetic Durability Magehand While maintaining your mystic focus, you gain a deflection bonus to AC equal to your Wisdom bonus and temporary hp equal to your HD x your Wisdom bonus. You may expend your focus as a nonaction whenever an attack or effect would kill you, if you do so, you survive with 1 hp.
Telekinetic Puppet Magehand, Grade 2 and at least one of Telekinetic Durability, Telekinetic Strength, or Telekinetic Tricks As long as you are maintaining your mystic focus you can move your body telekinetically, allowing you to act while your body would be unable. This allows you to act when Stunned, Paralyzed, at Strength or Dexterity of 0 or similar situation where you cannot move but able to take mental action. This does not apply to status caused by an external force holding you, simply when you lack agency to do it yourself. While telekinetically controlling yourself you count as having a Strength or Dexterity score equal to it normal score, or 10, whichever is lower. Add control body to your spells known. When you cast this spell it is fully augmented.
If you have Telekinetic Strength, use your Charisma Score as your Strength Score for all purposes while using Telekinetic Puppet. Also use Charisma instead of Wisdom for Will saves.
If you have Telekinetic Tricks, use your Intelligence Score as your Dexterity Score for all purposes while using Telekinetic Puppet.
If you have Telekinetic Durability, use your Wisdom Score as your Constitution Score for all purposes while using Telekinetic Puppet. You still die when your Constitution Score becomes 0, but you do not take penalties for it decreasing while using Telekinetic Puppet.
Telekinetic Combat Magehand While mystically focused, you may make attacks with weapons (or improvised weapons) telekinetically at range, attacking as a standard action or full attack action as normal. When doing so, use your Caster level as your base attack bonus. You can attack directly with telekinetic power, treat this as attacking with an unarmed strike (or natural/feral strike weapon if you possess one). You may perform combat maneuvers as per the telekinesis spell, except you use Charisma for Strength and Intelligence for Dexterity.
You may expend your Mystic focus to use the Violent Thrust version of telekinesis, except it is uncapped by caster level, you use your caster level as your base attack bonus, and you add your magehand Heavy Load to the amount of weight you can move.
Improved Telekinesis must know and be able to cast telekinesis, Magehand and/or Unseen Servant The amount of weight and speed at which you can move things with the Sustained Force and Volatile Thrust versions of telekinesis, magehand, or unseen servant doubles. The base range of magehand and unseen servant improves to medium (100ft +10/lv).
If you have Unseen Servant, a Servant may maintain concentration on telekinesis for you and gain a +4 bonus to caster level when casting telekinesis and similar spells. You may expend your mystic focus to double the bonus to telekinesis' caster level to +8.
If you have Magehand, you can multi-task, taking a standard action, to perform two telekinesis based actions, provided they each would normally take a standard action or less to perform, for example you could hold up a bridge, while using violent thrust to push an enemy off it, with a single standard action. In order to multi-task you must make a Concentration check with a DC equal to 15 + 5 x the number of effects. You may perform 1 + (Highest Spell grade /2 (min. 1)) actions with a standard action this way.
Greater Telekinesis Improved Telekinesis When you cast telekinesis, you can maintain concentration on it as a swift action and it does not end if you use the violent thrust ability. You can choose to use a new maneuver each round. There is no maximum caster level cap. You gain one additional maneuver, which acts as violent thrust to all creatures in range and launches them away from the caster. Using this version ends the spell.
