Psi Blades[edit]
Starting at 1st level, You can manifest your psionic power as shimmering blades of psychic energy. Whenever you take the Attack action, you can manifest a psi blade from your free hand and make the attack with that blade. This magic blade is a simple melee weapon with the finesse property. It deals psychic damage equal to 1d6 plus the ability modifier you used for the attack roll. You can dismiss the blades without taking an action, and they disappear if you are incapacitated.
After you attack with the blade, you can make a melee or ranged weapon attack with a second psychic blade as a bonus action on the same turn, provided your other hand is free to create it.
The damage of your psi blades increases as you gain levels, as shown on the Psi Die column on the Psi Templar table.
Rend[edit]
At 1st level, using an Action, you can move towards your enemy, stabbing him with your psyblade. The enemy must be within reach, and you cause your psyblade damage to it, without rolling for attack.
After using Rend, you can use a bonus action to move up to 30 feet, without provoking opportunity attacks.
Focus[edit]
At 2nd level, your psionic abilities are represented by your Focus.
- Focus Maximum and Regaining Focus
Your focus maximum equals 2. You have 0 focus, but you can gain focus by using the Rend feature.
- Using Focus and Focus Benefits
Some features in this class use Focus, and focus is spent when you use them. Others just benefit from you having a certain amount of Focus.
Also, while you have focus, your physical abilities are enhanced. You add +1 to your Damage rolls using psi blades and any feature that uses Focus, AC and +10 feet to your movement speed for each 1 focus you have.

Also at 2nd level, you can use your psionic power to release a blast of electricity. You can spend 1 focus as an Action to choose one creature you are able to see within 120 feet. That creature takes damage equal to your psionic die. When you use Volt against a creature that has Actions who cause psychic damage, the damage is doubled.
If you had 2 focus before you used this feature, you can choose another creature within 30 feet of your first target to also suffer its effects.
When you gain the Extra Attack feature, you can forgo one of your attacks to use Volt instead.
Ability Score Improvement[edit]
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.
