Her last name was originally Mason (Lumos) but then there was confusion about her being a female Edward. It's now Miller (Promise sandbox and Sunday's maiden name). Sunday's is now Anderson because she's married. Kushielverse is an alternate France so I picked a near form of her name that existed in Kushiel. Quinn sandbox was Lalindar because it met the "privileged background" attractor; powerful families in Quinn being to the five families, and none of the names matched so I went with her coru element. Kystle has what Aestrix told is a Kystle version of Miller. And Myth's is a horse joke for the centaur. :)

Hasn't been discussed but I'm inclined towards no.

Limits like what? Telekinesis is similar to your muscle's "turn your own energy to kinetic energy", just at a distance. It is, like your muscles, bounded by personal ability and genetics and practice and so forth. A lot of the -pathy forms are kind of like... having ears for things other than sounds. Telepaths can make sounds that aren't in the standard audio range, and hear such sounds produced by others, but "non magic talking" is often just as effective. And also depends on natural talent and how regularly you work at it and so forth.
If you meant more like "this is the exact range of mass in kilograms a person can pick up at this exact distance", then nope, that's dependent on the person. You do not say "humans can pick up exactly 5 kilograms to exactly 1 meter in height before they are tired" in real life either.

I wasn't thinking in
exact mass or range, but something that could help picture me the norm, like "10-20kg" for the average person would be fine "one small toddler unit of mass" or "one big car unit of mass" also counts, similar to range to "across the room unit of distance" or "across a stadium unit of distance".

The end result of a
Tumblr conversation is
this scene in which Phil fusses over an upset Emma. Not actually part of anything officially, but was designed to work in the Sunday universe if people want to read it that way.
