detonate

Also: disintegrate

Syntax: cast 'detonate'     <character>
Syntax: cast 'disintegrate' <character>

With both of these skills, a psionicist uses his or her mind to affect the
latent energy inside inanimate objects.  If these objects are close enough
to the intended victim, they can cause great damage.  For this reason, most
psionicists choose the victim itself as the target, since there's bound to
be SOMETHING dead on it, sooner or later.  Mid-level psionicists can
DETONATE objects on their victim, and extremely skilled psionicists can even
DISINTEGRATE their victims, killing them instantly.
