Movement Types

Each movement type has its own rules and interactions. Some powers and feats may grant you additional movement types, or allow you to use existing movement types in new ways.

Movement is always expressed as "(movement type) (number)" (e.g. Walk 6 or Fly 10). The number indicates how many squares you can move with that movement type during a single move action.

Fly You can fly through the air, unaffected by gravity.
Levitate You can hover above the ground and move in any direction without being affected by difficult terrain or gravity, but have a maximum height.
