Levitation (Psionic)

==The Complete Psionics Handbook==
Levitation allows the user to float. It is the use of telekinesis on oneself.
A character can lift himself at the rate of 1 foot per second, or 60 feet per round. The character can descend as quickly as he wants by simply letting himself fall, then slowing down as he nears the ground.
Levitation is not flying; it doesn't provide any horizontal movement. The character can hover motionless, and will drift with the wind, however. He can also push himself off a wall or other fixed object and drift up to 60 feet per round in a straight line, but he can't stop until he meets another solid object or lowers himself to the ground.
Two other powers - control wind and project force - can help the levitating psionicist propel himself forward. Control wind allows him to determine the direction in which he drifts. Project force allows him to create a 'Wall" wherever it's wanted; movement is up to 60 feet per round, in any direction. Each change of direction or speed is a distinct use of the power, however, and costs PSPs.
A psionicist can always levitate his own weight. Additional weight, however, such as equipment or passengers, is a hindrance. Every 25 pounds of added weight reduces the character's power score by one point.
Power Score - The rate of levitation is doubled (to 120 feet/round).
20 - The psionicist doubles his weight for one round. If he falls, he suffers an extra d6 points of damage.

This power allows the user to float by using telekinesis on himself. The user can lift himself at the rate of 1 foot a second, or 60 feet a round. He can descend as quickly as he wants by simply letting himself fall, then slowing down as he nears the ground. The user can always levitate his own weight. Additional weight, such as equipment or passengers, is a hindrance. Every 25 pounds of added weight improves the power's MAC by 1.
Levitation isn't flying. The power provides no horizontal movement. The user can hover motionlessly and drift with the wind, or he can push off a wall or other fixed object and drift up to 60 feet a round in a straight line. He can't stop, however, until he meets another solid object, lowers himself to the ground, or stops paying the PSP cost. Two powers—control wind and project force—can help the levitating user propel himself forward and change direction. The use of these additional powers requires the extra expenditure of PSPs and MTHAC0 rolls.
