[ORE] Re: Powers building based on stats

Thanks for the tips.

This PC's Mind is at 3d. He does not have any HyperMind dice, but he
now has the opportunity to "learn" to tap into the extraordinary
potential in his mind.

Adding Mass, Range, and Duration would mean he could apply those to
any mind skills, but my head starts spinning when I think of how to
apply mass to a Language skill.
