Spatial brambles [major] by Iczer

'I have you right where I want you'

The character can generate a field of spatial ripples that hang suspended in air. These ripples occupy an area 30 feet across (plus 10 feet per level) anyone who enters the area, or who moves through the area is affected by this power while it persists (as long as the character concentrates and remains within 100 feet of the affected area).
Affected creatures suffer 1D6 damage every round that they move more than 30 feet out of the affected area, plus an additional 1d6 damage per 30 feet. any target that can move more than 30 feet (plus 30 feet per level of the character) can escape his bonds.
Affected creatures who attempt to teleport out of the area find that they take 4D6 damage by doing so and are snapped back to their starting point.
The character can tighten the field on a single target within the affected area inflicting 3D6 damage ranged attacks through the area are also affected by the brambles. physical projectiles, as well as leap attacks, charges or tackles suffer a -6 to strike. energy attacks work just fine.
The character is immune to this power, as are anyone he chooses to release from it.
The character is aware of the physical location of any targets within his brambles (he feels them like a spider feels creatures in its web). he cannot be suprised by targets (unless he has made them immune to the effects) and enjoys a +2 to parry and dodge opponents stuck in his web.
As this power requires a little concentration to maintain, he may perform other actions, but loses control of this power if he maintains another, or loses actions due to stunning or other effects.
