Kineticist Power Tables
This is an attempt to organize the kinetic blasts, infusions, and wild talents in a more readable format than the rulebooks.
Kinetic Blasts
All but simple blasts cost burn 2. The word "blast" has been ignored in names.
A kineticist can use all combination blasts he qualifies for. Note there are specific prerequisites that must be fulfilled, not all blasts listed for an element are available.

Expanded Elements
Not elements in the classic sense, these power sets work just as the other elements of the kineticist.
Bibliokinesis
This is a work in progress.
The bibliokinesist focus on paper (or similar writing surfaces such as vellum or papyrus) and the written word in the form of books, tomes, and scrolls. These works contain text from the Akashic Record, but most of it is pure gibberish — random letters and words without meaning. Bibliokinesists strive to retrieve great truths from the Akashic Record, and can do so in a limited fashion at higher levels.
Class Skills A bibliokinesist adds Linguistics and Spellcraft to her list of class skills.
Wild talents
Infusion wild talents are marked with a dagger (†); all other wild talents listed below are utility wild talents. New wild talents from this book are marked *.
1st— basic bibliokinesis*, decipher script*, kinetic cover, paper cuts*, pulling†, pushing†. 2nd— entangling†, paper path*. 3rd— elemental words†*, eruption†, paper wings* (self telekinesis), smoke storm, snake† 4th— cyclone†, paper snare* (telekinetic maneuvers), spray† 5th— paper ride* (greater self telekinesis), 6th— universal unravel†* 7th— 8th— many throw† 9th—
New Simple Blasts
New Compound Blasts
New Infusion Talents
Elemental Words
Element paper; Type substance infusion; Level 3; Burn 2 Associated Blasts book, paper Saving Throw none
You manifest the meaning of the words of your kinetic blast as elemental energy. This changes your kinetic blast into another simple blast of any type. You need not know the element of the simple blast you emulate in this way.
New Utility Wild Talents
Basic Bibliokinesis
Element paper; Type utility (Su); Level 1; Burn 0
As basic telekinesis except that you use paper instead of telekinetic effects.
Decipher Script
Element paper; Type utility (Su); Level 1; Burn 0
As comprehend languages except that it only applies to written text and symbols.
Paper Cuts
Element paper; Type utility (Su); Level 3; Burn 1
You surround yourself with whirling paper that cuts foes who strike you. Until the next time your burn is removed, while your paper cuts is active, any creature that strikes you with an unarmed strike or natural weapon or that grapples you takes 1d6 points of slashing damage. Weapons that strike you also take this damage, though the damage is unlikely to penetrate the weapon’s hardness.
Paper Path
Element paper; Type utility (Sp); Level 2; Burn 0
You can create horizontal or slanted surface of paper long a 30 ft. line, 5 ft. wide, creating a bridge or ramp. The path does not need to be supported and can go up to 10 ft. up or down over 30 ft. length. It counts as clear terrain and lasts until the end of your next turn. Each square of paper path can support up to 100 lb. per kineticist level, has hit points equal to your kineticist level and is invulnerable to bludgeoning, piercing, and cold damage. You can accept 1 point of burn to increase the duration to 1 round per kineticist level and the length of the line to 30 ft. per level.
