Long Strike

This spell, sometimes called Teleblow among psionicists, captures the energy of a single blow, say a punch, kick, or sword swipe, and transfers it across a distance. By casting this spell and subsequently making a melee attack, the caster can use the melee attack to strike anyone within the spell’s range. The spell’s attack is invisible, but it can be dodged or parried if the target is able to observe the caster and if he is aware that the attack is coming.

Spell Components

• The caster must sprinkle the weapon or body part being used to attack with metal from a ground-up spring, etching or drawing a rune onto it. The spell is activated when the caster uses the weapon to attack the air in front of her.

Limitations and Notes:

• The caster must know more or less the exact location of the target. The caster need not perceive the target directly, but if she cannot in any way, a -4 penalty applies to the attack. If the caster can see the target but not well, lesser penalties may apply. Magical scrying can easily compensate for this problem.
