Path of the Psion[edit]
Barbarian Path
Some Barbarians with affinity for psychic abilities learn to use them to combat enemies and are able to enhance them with their rage although they lose the full control of them. These Barbarians are able to break their opponents' minds as well as their bones.

You have affinity with psychic abilities. At 3rd level you can speak telepathically to a creature you can see within 30 feet of you in a language you both understand. This feature cannot be used while raging.

At 6th level, while raging, you can unleash a telekinetic aura with a range of 30 feet as a bonus action (or as part of the same bonus action used to enter in rage), which has the following effects:
- When an ally inside the area is targeted for a ranged attack which requires an attack roll and a physical projectile (such as an arrow, a crossbow bolt or a thrown weapon) you can use a reaction to direct the attack towards you. The attack maintain the same attack roll.
- When a creature within 5 feet of you makes a melee attack against you or an ally, you can use a reaction to make the creature have disadvantage on the attack roll, or remove the advantage on the attack roll.
The aura lasts for the duration of the rage. This feature can be used once, and you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.

On a failure, they lose concentration on their spells and won't be able to concentrate on other spells until the end of the rage. When a creature ends their turn inside the aura they must make the saving throw.
