The Telekinetic[edit]
Yup you can move things with your mind.
- Kinesis
Starting at 2nd level, when you choose this archetype, you learn the mage hand cantrip if you did not know it before. You can cast it with the following improvements:
- You can cast and control mage hand as a bonus action and move the hands at twice the normal speed.
- You summon two separate, invisible hands when you cast it, and you can control one or both of them when you use the spell.
- The spell’s duration is indefinite, ending only when you are knocked unconscious or you choose to end it.
- Your mage hands are stronger than normal, capable of lifting a combined weight in pounds equal to 10 × your psion level level, and they are dexterous enough to perform any ability check you could normally perform with your hands.
- Combat Kinesis
Also at 2nd level you have learned to use your mage hands in combat. While you are holding nothing in your hands, your mage hands can wield weapons:each can wield a single one-handed weapon, or together they can wield a two-handed weapon.
When you take the Attack action on your turn,you can make one or more of your attacks through your mage hands against targets you can see within their reach. You can add your Intelligence modifier,instead of your Strength or Dexterity, to the attack and damage rolls. A mage hand not wielding a weapon deals the same damage as one of your unarmed strikes
- Kinetic Talent
Starting at 7th level, you can use your mage hands to perform a number of combat maneuvers or tricks. While they aren’t wielding weapons, you can use both of your hands together to grapple or shove a creature. When you do so, you add your Intelligence modifier to the Strength (Athletics) check.
Additionally, you can use your reaction to make an opportunity attack with one of your hands when a creature leaves its reach.
- Immovable Obstacle
Starting at 10th level you can can use a reaction to another creature starting it's turn and can create planes of invisible force. You summon a number of 5x5 foot planes spending 1 focus point for each plane summoned. Each plane must be contiguous with another plane and the planes may appear in any orientation you choose, as a horizontal or vertical. It can be free floating or resting on a solid surface. Nothing can physically pass through the wall. It is immune to all damage but it can be counter spelled, dispelled, or disintegrated at any level. after the triggering creature's turn, the planes of force no longer exist. The maximum number of planes you can create is = your Intelligence Modifier + half your class level.
- Walking on Air
At 14th level,you can use an action to create an invisible horizontal plane under your feet. The radius is always centered at your feet can be up to 30 feet in all directions and will follow you as you seemingly walk in midair. when you use your action to create this plane you expend 3 focus points per 5 feet radius (min 3) and must be maintained at the start of your next turn based on the current radius. The plane continues to exist, until you end it as a reaction, or decide not to maintain any more points on it. As a part of your movement you can move it up or down 10 feet. While this plane exists you can decrease the radius to a minimum of 5 feet or increase it up to 30. This plane only seems to work for creatures on top and allows anything to pass through from beneath allowing terrain and creatures to jump onto the plane but not pass down through it. Any creature that is intersected by this plane does not seem to be effected by it.
Telepath[edit]
Reaching out with your mind you can touch the mind of others in a way that novice Telepaths could only dream. Other Minds cannot be hidden from you
- Lingering Mind
Starting at 2nd level, you can speak telepathically with anyone that shares a language within 30 feet. Also whenever you hit a creature with an attack, you can choose to spend 1 focus point to leave a mental tracker on the target until the end of your next turn. So long as this mental tracker is within 30 feet of you it is always considered to be visible to you, and you know exactly where it is. Additionally, as a bonus action you can force any creature you can see within 30 feet. to Make a Save against your Mental focus DC, imparting this ability on a failed save which a creature can choose to fail. Any viable target of this feature must have minimum of INT 3 for this ability to affect it.
- Sensory Relay
At 7th level the range of your lingering mind abilities increases to 60 feet. Additionally if you can choose to spend two points instead of one when you use it's features and if you are able place a mental tracker. you can see through their senses in addition to your own.
- Projected Mind
At 10th level, when a friendly creature makes a concentration check within 30 feet of you other than you, you can spend 5 focus points as a reaction points to give that creature a bonus to the save = to your Intelligence modifier. you must choose to use this ability before the concentration check is rolled.

Additionally any creature subject to your mental tracker has disadvantage on all Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma Saving throws against your spells.
Puppeteer[edit]
You excel at the psychic talent of Puppeteering. You're able to, for short periods, high-jack control of a creature's movement and influence them to do what you wish
- Puppet apprentice

If it succeeds it knows you tried to influence it ions some way and becomes hostile as appropriate for the context and has advantage on any future attempts for the next 24 hours. On a failed save you project your mind into that target's body. While in the possessed body, the following details apply:
- Your possessed body
- You use it's physical stats and features but retain your own mental stats, though you don't gain access to a creatures legendary features if it has any
- You cannot use any of your class features except those of your Puppeteer subclass and the focus points that those abilities require.

If a hostile creature enters this aura or starts it's turn there its speeds are reduced by 10 feet (min of 5) for that turn. Additionally when a creature within the aura makes an attack, you can use your reaction by spending 3 more focus points to force it to make a Dexterity saving throw which it can choose to fail. On a fail you can increase or decrease the result of the attack roll by 3.
- Temporal Suspension
at 10th level you can target a creature as an action and force it to make a Wisdom saving throw which it can choose to fail. On a failure, you send it some time into the future. When you do so you must concentrate on this effect as though you are casting a spell. while concentrating on this effect you must spend one focus point at the start of your turn per creature suspended in this way. When your concentration ends, every affected creature appears back in its space in the same condition it was in before the jump. An unconscious or bleeding out creature automatically fails its save. You can additionally use this on an object that is no more than 5 feet in any dimension. Such inanimate objects also require 1 point per turn to maintain its temporal suspension.
- Time Swapping
at 14th, as an action, before you use any movement, you can spend 25 focus points targeting an ally within 30 feet. The targeted creature gets one additional action, bonus action, reaction and it's speed is doubled. Its AC and attack rolls increases by 2 and its melee damage rolls deal additional force damage = to your Intelligence modifier. In exchange you become slowed (as though under the effects of the slowed spell.) except there is no impact on your concretion checks. at the start of your next turn all effects end.
