Psionics: Wall of Ectoplasm

Psionics: Wall of Ectoplasm

The first ever monster that I posted on this blog was the aboleth. That creature can conjure ectoplasmic walls through psionics. While I did create the Metacreativity power with the GURPS Psionic Powers framework, I forgot about that ability. Let's quickly write it up and edit the aboleth's monster entry.

Wall of Ectoplasm – 23 points/level
Skill: Wall of Ectoplasm (IQ/Hard).

You manifest a wall of white-green ectoplasm within 10 yards that blocks vision and impedes movement, even of those with Insubstantiality. The wall does not need to be anchored – it may be suspended in midair. The maximum square yardage is six square yards, with each additional level doubling that cumulatively. You can shape the wall into any shape you wish. Each yard of the wall has DR 6 and 1 HP. The wall dissipates after 10 seconds have passed, or upon total destruction, but multiple walls can be set up. The wall does no damage itself, but beings that crash into it may take damage from the collision.
    Statistics: Crushing Attack 2d (Affects Insubstantial, +20%; Area Effect, 2 yards, +50%; Metacreativity, -10%; Persistent, +40%; Reduced Range, 1/10, -30%; Wall, Rigid, +60%) [23/level].

Resilient Wall – Hard
Default: Wall of Ectoplasm-10; cannot exceed Wall of Ectoplasm.

By using this technique, you double the wall’s DR and HP.
