11-11-07, 03:48 AM how do you decide damage if telekinetic thrust is used to throw one creature at another? it say's 1d6 for dense objects so a creature would be what? like 1d4? but the main question is how do you decide damage for the thrown creature? is it falling damage as if he were thrown against a wall? or the 1d4 as the creature he's been thrown at?

My rewrite takes care of this by stating that things deal damage according to their size rather than their weight. It circumvents a huge number of issues regarding this (currently nigh-broken) power.
