Notes on Red Magic – Telekinesis

Compiled and commented by Albert Weaver

"Mind over matter, but matter fights back."

 - Proverb among telekinetic novices, Breeze Years

Telekinesis is the classic. You lift a cup, you catch a falling book, you send a rock flying across a battlefield. Easy to try, impossible to truly master.

[Field Log – Workshop Observation, Breeze Years]

"Apprentice telekinetic struggled with steady grip on delicate glassware. Senior caster demonstrated fine control - manipulated a hummingbird cage without breaking a feather."

***

Speed, precision, strength - all tied to the caster's skill and mana pool. Lift a mug? Child's play. Toss a boulder? Needs focus and stamina. Hold a person midair? That's a feat few sustain for long.

[Interview – Veteran Caster "Lena"]

"It looks like magic, but it's muscle and willpower. Your mind's pulling weight you can't see. Push too hard, you lose control. Push too soft, it slips away. Balance is everything."

***

Telekinesis is versatile - helping hands in the kitchen, a shield in combat, a tool in construction. But overreach can snap the caster's concentration or their connection to the object.

[Incident Report – Market Accident]

"Caster attempted to levitate a cart during festival rush. Lost grip; cart crashed into stalls, injuring two bystanders. Recommended stricter training protocols."

Albert's note:

"Telekinesis is less about raw power and more about finesse. It's the magic of connection - between mind, mana, and matter."
