Fortify Power

Type: Metapsionic
Source: Dragon #287

You can manifest powers to greater effect
Benefit: All variable, numeric effects of an fortified power are increased by one-quarter (minimum of 1). A fortified power deals an extra twenty-five percent damage, cures twenty-five percent as many hit points, affects twenty-five percent more targets, and so on, as appropriate. For example, a fortified lesser concussion deals twenty-five percent more damage (roll 1d6 and multiply the result by 1.25, with a minimum extra damage of 1). Saving throws and opposed rolls (such as the one you make when you manifest negate psionics) are not affected. Powers without random variables are not affected. A fortified power costs a number of power points equal to its standard cost + 2.
Special: You can apply Fortify Power to the same power multiple times. Each time you apply it, the power is fortified another twenty-five percent, and it costs 2 more power points. For instance, a lesser concussion fortified 3 times deals 1d6 x 1.75 damage for a cost of 7 power points. You can't break the power point limit of the manifester level minus one when using Fortify Power multiple times on the same power. Thus, an 8th-level manifester could have used the power as described in the above example, while a 7th-level caster could not, though he could use Fortify Power twice on lesser concussion so that it deals 1d6 x 1.5 damage, for a cost of 5 power points.
