Does anyone have actual play experience with the Flux compendium class? It was one of the original CCs, and a re-edited version appears in Class Warfare. The starting move is as follows:
Bind
When you call upon the fundamental force within yourself, if
you are touching two objects no heavier than yourself, roll+CON.
On a hit, the objects are attracted to each other like Newton’s
apple to the ground. On a 10+, also choose two options from the list
below. On a 7-9, choose one:
> There are no adverse side effects.
> This bond lasts until you choose to break it.
> You are able to weaken the bond without breaking it.
It seems like the sort of thing that would have clever uses, but for the life of me I draw a blank when trying to think of any, and I’ve never seen anyone play with it. How about you, Tavernites? Seen it in play, or have any cunning notions on what to do with it?
Sword to sheath? Door to door jamb? Broken parts bound together as whole? People aren’t objects, right?
I would say people aren’t objects, based mainly on the fact that the halfling racial move lets you select yourself as one of the bound objects. Though if that weren’t there, I think I might let creatures count as objects.

Axe to hand. Instant boomerang
Or hand to hook. Makes Invisible rope without the need to pull the rope back up.
A barrel with a smaller rod inside. You use the power to lock them into place. Then, pull the inner rod back and latch it. Stick a small ball inside the barrel. Release the latch and BOOM, an instant muzzleloader rifle without the BOOM. Sniper style
