With this ability one can move objects around and carry them without touching them. There are two major ways to use Telekinetics: sustained or as a pulse.

One use of a pulse is to grab any nearby object within range and throws it 20 ft. towards a target. This is considered a range touch attack and deals 1d4 per HD. The object thrown cannot way more than 110 lbs. The weight of the object doesn't matter, as lighter objects just get thrown faster to make up for the energy: within reason.

Another use of a pulse is to do a shove or trample at a distance. This requires no initial touch attack and goes directly into the opposed role. Instead of using Dex or Strength a telekinetic shove or trample uses the caster's PMA.

A sustained use allows long term manipulation of heavy objects. Largely, pushing and pulling. Pushing an object of 501-750 lbs. will fatigue a character after 2 rounds and exhaust a character after 5 rounds. When pushing or pulling things that weight between 111 lbs. to 500 lbs. a character will be fatigued after 10 rounds and exhausted after 25.

VTT Macro Description:
@{character_name} activates telekinetics and it can be used to do a number of things. An object that's up to 110 lbs. can be thrown at a target.The target must be within 60 ft. of the object thrown. Ths counts as a pulse.

An shove or trample can be attempted without a touch attack. The Opposed roll result will be [[1d20+@{pma}+(?{Advanced Combat Maneuver bonuses?|0})]]. This counts as a pulse.

It can also be used to push/pull an object weighing upto 750 lbs, resutling in fatigue after 2 rounds, exhausted after 5 rounds. Push/pull an object weighing up to 500 lbs, resulting in fatigue after 10 rounds, exhausted after 25. Carry, push, or pull an object upto 110 lbs. with no ill effects.
