Official Move Approval IV
Quote:With a Wave of my Hand!: requires telekinesis, ranged proficiency, area attack proficiency, 3+ ATK (300 OM)
By sweeping their hand disparagingly through the air, a sufficiently powerful psychic can send their opponents flying. This attack requires a one second wind-up, in order for the user to draw a hand across their body, palm facing the opposite ear as though chambering a perfectly-formed pimp-slap (naturally, the sweep is backhanded; For maximum SCORN!)

When the arm is swung (which takes about 1/10th of a second), anyone standing within a 180 degree arc in front of the user out to a distance of twenty meters (within the range of their telekinesis and the plane of the swing) is pushed violently backwards, as though kicked hard in the chest by someone extremely powerful (users ATK score). If a targets DEF equals or exceeds the user's ATK, the effect is negligible, though if their TEC is lower than 2 they may still stumble. This attack deals no actual damage, unless a target hurts themselves falling (or the users ATK exceeds a targets DEF by 3 or more, in which case the damage is equivalent to being struck barehanded by someone with the user's ATK -2), and takes minimal energy to perform (though repeated uses will wind the psychic quickly, as flailing ones arms about wildly is wont to do.)  

I WILL CRUSH YOU: Requires ranged materialize proficiency, area attack proficiency, 4+ ATK (600 OM)

A highly dramatic attack for the seriously annoyed mentat. While standing still, (this move cannot be used while moving) the user throws one or both hands in the air and declares their intent in suitably dramatic fashion, which takes a minimum of 1 second (if they go with just 'Die'!) and a maximum of 4 seconds (if they say the whole thing, and dwell on the YOOUU). During this time, a plane of force three meters square and infinitely thin forms horizontally above the target, visible as a slight distortion in the air. The user then swings their hand (or hands) groundward, and the plane descends at the speed of a bullet, smashing the victim into the ground with tremendous force.

This attack is interruptable by a solid blow, both during the charge and during the execution. The target must be within fifteen meters of the user, and I WILL CRUSH YOU cannot be used in conjuction with other moves. 

The exact strength of the attack depends mostly on the user's ATK score - as though they were somehow leg-pressing a giant manhole cover down on the target's head. At the maximum charge time, the force of impact only goes up by about 40%. 

This attack is inefficient, and thus very draining, and can be performed only three times without rest, whether its been charged or not.
Changes in Bold. I tweaked the damage on the fully charged I WILL CRUSH YOU because considering the charge time and the caveats, looking at it again I thought it looked a bit anemic, even for an explicitly inefficient move.
