Description
With this power, the user harnesses, focuses, and explosively releases the latent psionic energy inside non sentient (0 Intelligence) plants and inanimate objects. The power also works against animated undead (skeletons and zombies), but doesn’t affect incorporeal undead. It can’t be used against animals, intelligent creatures, or free‑willed undead. The explosion causes destructive damage to the target, based on the MTHAC0 roll. If the roll is equal to the power’s MAC, 10% of the target area is destroyed. For every number rolled above the MAC, an additional 10% is destroyed, up to a total of 8 cubic feet of material (by a single power use). Monsters such as skeletons and golems targeted by the detonate power take damage based on the percentage of their mass that was destroyed, losing an equal percentage of hit points. Magically animated material, like golems, can make a saving throw vs. spell to resist detonation. Weapons and armor that have been detonated receive penalties of –1 to attack rolls and AC values for each 10% destroyed. Magical items make a saving throw vs. disintegration to resist detonation. Vulnerable objects or living things within 10 feet of the target suffer 1d10 points of damage from the resulting explosion. A save vs. breath weapon reduces damage to half. ​
