Rank 1
Type Assault and Utility
Brief Create or modify light, from gentle illumination to lethal radiation

You create and shape electromagnetic radiation in the visible spectrum and beyond, ranging from soft illumination to coherent killing beams.

Rank 1: Visible Light

Create, suppress, color, and bend visible light. You can produce illumination, holograms, and illusions; cause blindness or dazzle (Con save); or extinguish ambient light to plunge an area into darkness.

Rank 2: Hard Light

You can solidify light into a tangible material--something like a wall of force, but not indestructible, and capable of more complex shapes (a ramp, a bridge, a cage, a temporary weapon). Hard-light constructs persist while you concentrate.

Rank 3: Higher Frequencies

You access frequencies beyond visible light: powerful focused lasers (heavy radiant damage, line area), x-rays (penetrate cover and most armor), and gamma rays (massive damage, short half-life radiation effects on the area).
