The powers rewrite is done. I have removed a few of the powers for now, Mainly alternate form and all the summoning powers. I will re-introduce these later after I have added more creatures. About half of the remaining powers have been modified heavily.
The category system has been modified and now include a Usage, Type and Form. Usage is a rule system for determining the condition that a given power can be used. Type is a description of the area that a power is applied to and form is the presentation of the power.
As an example a power may have

If they win the difficulty they are only subjected to half damage (round up). Also if they have prepared movement and make the difficulty they can move outside of the powers area. If the area is larger than the movement left to the target, they must spend the next turns movement at a cost of 1 PAP per space moved. If they are exhausted then they can not move and are subject to the normal half damage.
