Telekinesis is one of the most generally useful psychic/psionic/magic powers. When you think about it, moving stuff is pretty much the most basic thing you can ever want to do.
- Want to fight someone? Move a weapon or a big rock at them.
- Want to probe for traps? Move something into the area that might trigger them.
- Want to pick a pocket? Move the wallet.
- Want to pick a lock? Move the lock mechanism.
- Want to travel somewhere? Move yourself or your vehicle.
- Want to rescue someone? Move any restraints away and move them towards you.
- Want to find treasure? Move all the stuff that isn't treasure until you see it.
- Want to change the weather? Move the air and the water in the atmosphere to make it rain, or stop, or whatever.
- Want to make a fire? Move molecules to increase the thermal energy until your fuel catches alight.
- Want to influence someone? Move the synapses in their brains to control their behaviour.
