Time Well[edit]
Starting at 1st level, your ability to control the flow of time is fueled by a special die called chrono die.
- Chrono Die
You have two chrono dice, which are d6s. As chrono die is expended when you use it. You regain all your expended chrono die when you finish a long rest and half as much(rounded up) when you finish a short rest. You gain more dice and your size increase in size as you gain levels in this class, as shown on the Chrono Dice column on the Chronoblade table.
- Using Chrono Dice
You can use your chrono die to fuel some of your time features. You can also choose one of the time features and grant the die to an allied creature you touch, as an action. That creature can use the die granted to fuel the chosen feature. If not spent within 10 minutes, the die is lost. You may choose 2 of the following features:
- Fast Healing. You can expend a chrono die as a bonus action to accelerate regeneration. When you do so, you or a creature within 5ft of you should roll a hit die, and regain hit points equal to the number rolled on the hit die + the number rolled on the chrono die + your Constitution modifier.
- Rewind Strike. You can rewind a missed strike, allowing you to retry it. When you miss a creature with a weapon attack, you can roll your chrono die as a reaction to reroll that attack. You add the number rolled on the die to the result of the reroll.
- Temporal Stride. As a bonus action you can spend one chrono die and roll it, increasing your movement speed by 5 times the number rolled. Your movement doesn't provoke opportunity attacks when using this ability.
- Rewind Death. When you or a creature within 60ft of you is reduced to 0 hit points or suffer a critical hit, you can roll a chrono die as a reaction to regain hit points equal to the amount you had just before being reduced to 0 hit points.
- Rewind Step. As a bonus action you can spend one chrono die on any turn to turn back the paste and positioning at which you or a creature moved. You may spend a chrono-dice and force a creature of your choice within 60ft of you to make a wisdom saving throw. On a failed save they move back to an unoccupied space a number of feet up to your chrono dice roll*5(maximum of 30). The creature must have occupied that space at some point during the current turn.
- Slowed Perception. You are able to slow down time just briefly to narrowly avoid the damage of some attacks. As a reaction to being targeted by an attack you may spend a chrono dice and reduce the damage by an amount equal to the chrono dice roll + your charisma modifier.
- Time bubble. As a bonus action you can expend a chrono dice create a small time bubble of a radius of 30ft at a point that you can see. Any damage done within the time bubble is reduced by an amount equal to half your chrono dice roll(rounded down). This only affects a number of creatures up to your intelligence modifier of your choosing. The bubble lasts for an amount of rounds equal to your chrono die roll.
You gain an additional Chrono Die feature at levels 5th, 9th, 13th, 17th and 20th.
Time Loop[edit]
At 1st level, you can temporarily encase your targets on a time loop, causing them to commit the same mistakes in their defenses. As a bonus action Whenever you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack, you can spend a chrono die and add it to the damage roll and put them in a time loop. Attack rolls you make against that creature using the same weapon, until the end of your next turn, is made at advantage.
Time Stealer[edit]
Also at 2nd level, you learn how to sap the vitality of creatures around you, robbing them from their time. Whenever a creature is reduced to 0 hit points by you, you regain 1 Chrono Dice.
Spellcasting[edit]
Reaching 3rd level, the ability to control the time reach a new peak, as you learn how to use this power to control magic.
- Cantrip
You know a number of cantrips equal to the number shown in the Cantrip column in the from the wizard spell list.
- Spell Slots
The Chronoblade table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. For example, if you know the 1st-level spell Armor of Agathys and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast Armor of Agathys using either slot.
- Spell level
The Chronoblade can only cast spells on a level for which he has spell slots left and the spell slot level is shown in the spell slot table.
- Preparing and Casting
You know dunamancy and transmutation spells from any spell list. You can prepare a number of spells up to half of your Chronoblade level (rounded up) + your Charisma modifier. You are able to change out your spells for other dunamancy or transmutation spells on a long rest.
- Spellcasting Ability
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your chronoblade spells, since your magic draws on your ability to bend the time to your will. You use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a chronoblade spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
- Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency modifier + your Charisma modifier
- Spell attack = your proficiency modifier + your Charisma modifier
- Spellcasting Focus
You can use a arcane focus as your spellcasting focus.
Extra Attack[edit]
At 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn. This increases to 3 at 11th level and 4 at 20th.
Memory Retention[edit]
At 6th level, you can not only control time, but remember it. You can make a Intelligence (History) check to remember any thing you have seen or heard within a number of months equal to your level in this class with extreme precision and details. If you roll a 9 or below on any history check treat that roll as a 10.
Evasion[edit]
At 7th level, your control over time enhances your agility and lets you dodge out of the way of certain area effects, such as a blue dragon's lightning breath or a fireball spell. When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail.

You can discern actions that creature took with precision within the last 48 hours.

A unwillingly creature can try to resist your probing by making a Wisdom saving throw against a DC equal 8 + your proficiency bonus + your charisma modifier. On a success, you can't use this feature on the same creature for the next 24 hours.

You can cast blink and haste on yourself, at will, by expending a use of your chrono die. The duration lasts a number of rounds equal to the amount rolled on your chrono dice when expended.
