GravityControl Propel.png Propel

You can open a gravitational rift and retrieve a heavy object, then Propel it at your foes for Smashing Damage.

Propel is a gravity Controllers most powerful offensive-damaging Gravity Control power, the others are all holds or immobilizers, this power is more visually impressive opposed to actualy useful, it roots the user, and has a long animation sequence. The objects before issue 7 used to appear, hit their target, then disappear, as of issue 7, physics was added, and they now litter the areas where the power is used, and can be affected by other gravity powers and wind effects, best example of the physics effect is with Snow Storm blowing these objects in a whirlwind fashion, larger objects will not be moved as much. Objects possible to be thrown include, but are not limited to, because new objects are created with each issue it seems :- *Cars *Statues *Lamp-posts *forklifts *chunks of buildings *Computers *safes *pool-tables.
