ASTRAL PROJECTION
Cost: 5
Action: Standard
Range: Personal
Duration: Continuous
Optional: Fatigue
You can separate your astral form - your mind, spirit, or life force - from your physical body. Your physical body
sinks into a death-like coma, while your astral form is free to move about on its own. Your astral form is invisible and
incorporeal, immune to physical harm and the effects of the environment, and able to pass freely through physical
objects. In astral form you can move freely in any direction, unaffected by gravity. Your speed is equal to (power rank x
5) and your sprint speed doubles for every rank you have in astral form.
While in astral form you can become visible at will and speak telepathically to other people. Powers that affect the
mind or soul work normally on your astral form and you can use mind-affecting powers on others while in astral form, but
your effective rank with the power cannot exceed your astral Projection rank. Characters with the Psychic awareness
feat (p. XX) can see your astral form, even while you are invisible.
You can leave your body for as long as you wish (although it will eventually dehydrate and starve if you are away for
too long). You are unaware of what happens to your physical body while you are in astral form, although you are aware
of any damage that your physical body suffers. If your physical body is killed while your astral form is away, you must
make an immediate astral Projection check (DC 30) or die as well. If you survive, you are trapped permanently on the
astral plane as a kind of ghost.
Extras
• Dimensional Travel: While in astral form, you can travel to other dimensions by making an astral Projection check as
if you had Dimensional Travel (p. XX). In physical dimensions you remain invisible and intangible, in astral dimensions,
you can interact as if you were in physical form.
