I have a similar focused Empathy power that was priced at 20 XP a year and a half ago, and it even had a drawback not present in Mal's version. Just curious if the price had deflated over time, I suppose.

Anyway, here, I'mma throw some stuff out.

Empathic Aura: An outgrowth of her empathic powers, Piper can project emotions onto those around her, whether they be positive (confidence, joy, etc.) or negative (fear, dread, etc.). Prolonged exposure may make the emotions linger after the exposure ceases. In some cases, the person may not even know the confidence or dread they feel is not their own, prompting the projected emotions to become the target's actual emotional mindset. This ability requires more focus than her base empathic power, and strong-willed individuals can resist the effects if they chose to do so.

Ki Wings: While in her ascended state (ie, Tier 1), Piper exhibits large, white wings made of energy. These wings allow her to levitate and fly. They can also be used as bludgeoning weapons and can be used to kick up concussive gusts of wind to knock weaker foes away or stagger/irritate stronger opponents.

Ki Net –
Piper begins this attack by firing a volley of energy bolts at his foe—missing with every single one. Instead of exploding, these projectiles freeze in proximity to the target, and with a quick motion, all of the attacks converge on the target in question. The more projectiles Piper is able to throw, the more cataclysmic the final attack contains. This attack is great for unloading upon a stronger opponent, but the energy and finesse it takes makes it fruitless to use on weaker opponents who can be dispatched with less-taxing attacks.

Your Empathy has more utility thus the higher price.

X-Ray Vision - Ander can see through solid objects, such as walls, doors, boxes, clothes, skin, and other such things. He also has a level of control that allows him to focus on specific "layers," such as being able to just see what is in someone's pocket, rather than all the way through. It does, however, have several limitations. It cannot be used to penetrate incredibly dense materials, such as lead or bone, and only penetrates as far as he can see with his normal eyesight. It also cannot penetrate ki of any form (for instance, a wall or coating of energy), or see anyone who is using Stealth. Basically, it only works as an upgrade of regular vision.

X-Ray Vision: No Idea. I need to ask.

Just a couple

Kienzan Boxcutter: For those times when shanking is meant to lack subtlety, please crowds, or neuter. By channeling his psychokinesis Shou can mold his ki into a form with an acute, puncturing edge. This is normally just a tapering edge of psionic potency that encases his fist, but it also has the capacity to take the form of daggers—which can be hurled and controlled via Psychokinesis.

Hat Trick: Like pulling a Rabbit out of a Hat. By bending time and space Shou can create a wormhole for his personal intent (feigning and flanking melee/ki attacks, grabbing the remote, etc.) and purposes. It's invisible and works to his advantage, so it would be difficult for an opponent to use it against him—but if they can grab his hand or something when he attempts to slap them around more power to them.

Bangkok Bang: A fistful of Aww FXck. A highly capable, Psycho-fueled, head-rattling suckerpunch. Kinetic energy on steroids explodes from fist-to-face and delivers its entirety into the point of contact. It works by shoving a ton of kinetic energy into the targets body (it can be applied from any point on Shou's body to any point on the opponents body with same result, Shou just prefers punching people in the face) that tries to escape by traveling up the nervous system to the head. End result, a fistful of Aww FXck.

Eff Off: For situations involving aggy ex-girlfriends, twix bars, and subpoenas. Shou takes very little time to execute this technique, which he has no specific pre-requisite to perform. A pulse of psychokinetic energy expels from the stunning, young demisaiya-jin—good for knocking back crowds at the tavern, deflecting ki-based attacks, and leaving a perfect sphere inside of houses.

Wave Off: For emergency use only. A step up (despite its nonchalant execution) from Eff Off on the Richter Scale. An unseen psychokinetic wall indiscriminately smashes projectiles and people, taking an even greater toll than much of his movepool. Although unseen it will leave a forty-seven-foot indentation of a hand in the earth if Shou were to ever slam it into the ground. 1 PP per usage.
