I would like to allow things like that pivotal moment in Jumper (yes, a bad movie) where the main character manages to jump the building to which he is attached. That is why I would prefer to tie the penalties to size modifier rather than the "maybe teleport another person or two" options that Exoteleport normally gives.
Ah! So you want a table with skill bonuses/penalties in one column and the weight in another column, just like Warp does with range?

Hmm.

Advantage:
Affliction (Advantage: Warp (Based on Will (Afflictor's), +20%; Mental Carrying Capacity, +20%; Blind Only, -50%; Exoteleport, -50%; Exoteleport (Modified Capacity; BL), -0%), +400%)

Technique: "Insert Fancy Name Here" (Defaults to _Skill -10; Cannot be higher than _Skill)
Power Technique: Will Attribute; Ability at Default (100%; Different Types), -10; Will X (Super-Effort, +400%), X = (Will / 5)

Math Warning!
Weight Capacity: X = [(Will ^ 2) / 5] in lbs
Technique Weight Capacity: Y = [((Will + {10^(((Will/5)+2)/6); round result to highest unsigned value}) ^ 2) / 5] in lbs

Formula Table:
Code:
Skill Modifier		Weight Capacity		Technique Weight Capacity
+3			X / 20			Y / 20
+2			X /  5			Y /  5
+1			X /  2			Y /  2
+0			X			Y
-1			X *  2			Y *  2
-2			X *  3			Y *  3
-3			X *  6			Y *  6
-4			X *  8			Y *  8
-5			X * 10			Y * 10
-6			X * 14			Y * 14
-7			X * 18			Y * 18
-8			X * 22			Y * 22
-9			X * 26			Y * 26
-10			X * 30			Y * 30
... each additional -1 to skill adds 4 to the multiplier in (Variable * Multiplier).
Example Table (Will 10) (Thereby X = 20) (Thereby Y = 45):
Code:
Skill Modifier		Weight Capacity		Technique Weight Capacity
+3			1 lb			2.25 lbs
+2			4 lbs			9 lbs
+1			10 lbs			22.5 lbs
+0			20 lbs			45 lbs
-1			40 lbs			90 lbs
-2			60 lbs			135 lbs
-3			120 lbs			270 lbs
-4			160 lbs			360 lbs
-5			200 lbs			450 lbs
-6			280 lbs			630 lbs
-7			360 lbs			720 lbs
-8			440 lbs			900 lbs
-9			520 lbs			1170 lbs
-10			600 lbs			1350 lbs
... each additional -1 to skill adds 80 lbs to the Weight Capacity column and 180 lbs to the Technique Weight Capacity column.
Will Values Table:
Code:
Will				Value of X			Value of Y
10				20				45
11				25				58
12				29				65
13				34				73
14				40				89
15				45				97
16				52				116
17				58				125
18				65				146
19				73				169
20				90				180
