Power Builds: Dream Speech & Dream Travel in a Fantasy Setting
I'm having a bit of a headache trying to figure out cost effective way to build someone who can telesend in their dreams out to around 1000 miles and not have it cost a fortune.
Obviously it only works when asleep, a -20% mod? The 1000 mile thing is killing me. Especially with the default range is 200 yards. Any ideas? |

Re: Power Builds: Dream Speech & Dream Travel in a Fantasy Setting
200 yards is only the distance at which there is no penalty, it's not a hard maximum. Telesend-ing to 1,000 miles is simply at a -8 penalty. You can overcome this with Reliable +8, +40% for 12 points.
-20% for Only while dreaming seems consistent with the Dreaming limitation for Precognition (Psionic Powers, p. 16), which is unreliable without a full night's sleep. Is it your intention that they can send to people who are awake? If not, that's Accessibility, Only on sleepers, -20% (Psionic Powers, p. 74). |

Thanks. I know I was doing this the wrong way. Reliable does fix the problem.
It's a double issue. Only works when asleep and only works on sleepers. So a net -40%. |

"Only While Asleep" sounds like "Useless Under Stress", which is a -60% accessibility limitation as described in Basic, pg 110. Combined with "Only on Sleepers" at -20%, you're up to -80% already. :) |
