From how far away can you hit someone with an evocation?

So maybe it wouldn't be too much to allow a physical skill, say fists or athletics, to complement the aiming roll for a rote like that?

That would definitely be a benefit to the character for whom I'm designing this power, since his athletics is higher than his discipline.

exploding_brain:
The justification for the athletics being that he's got an advantage in moving around in that one zone to get close enough to deliver the attack.

A Rote is just a evocation and evocations are always targeted by Discipline. The force ring is an enchanted item which allows you to pick the targeting skill. I only mentioned the force ring as an example of how range does not factor into equation.

Moriden:
+1 shift for limiting the rote wouldn't be uncalled for, much like including a focus item gives. in this case your just including a +0 focus item of "fist"

This is a good idea.

Also, I think you should name the magic fist rote "FALCON PUNCH!"
