Psionics

Psionic Disciplines

A psionic discipline is a rigid set of mental exercises that allows a psionic to manifest psionic power. A psionic masters only a few disciplines at a time. At 1st level, you know one psionic discipline of your choice. The disciplines known column of the psionic table shows the total number of disciplines you know at each level; when that number goes up for you, choose a new discipline. In addition, whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one discipline you know with a different one of your choice.

Psi Points

Starting at 1st level, You have an internal reservoir of energy that can be devoted to psionic abilities you know. This energy is represented by Psi Points. Each psionic abilities describes effects you can create with it by spending a certain number of psi points. The number of psi points you have is based on your Psion level, as shown in the psi points column of the Psion table. The number shown for your level is your psi point maximum. Your psi point total returns to its maximum when you finish a long rest. The number of psi points you have can’t go below 0 or over your maximum.

Psi Limit

Though you have access to a potent amount of psionic energy, it takes training and practice to channel that energy. There is a limit on the number of psi points you can spend to activate a psionic discipline. The limit is based on your psionic level, as shown in the Psi Limit column of the psionic table. For example, as a 3rd-level psionic, you can spend no more than 3 psi points on a discipline each time you use it, no matter how many psi points you have.

Psychic Focus

You can focus psionic energy on one of your psionic disciplines to draw ongoing benefits from it. As a bonus action, you can choose one of your psionic disciplines and gain its psychic focus benefit, which is detailed in that discipline’s description. The benefit lasts until you are incapacitated or until you use another bonus action to choose a different focus benefit. You can have only one psychic focus benefit at a time, and using the psychic focus of one discipline doesn’t limit your ability to use other disciplines.

Psionic Ability

Intelligence is your psionic ability for your psionic disciplines. You use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a psionic discipline or when making an attack roll with one.

• Discipline save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier
• Discipline attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier

SAS

Starting at 1st level, you chose a SAS. Choose between Gravikinesis, Pyrokinesis, Electrokinesis, Clairvoyance, Duplication, Sclerokinesis, Hypervelocity, Teleportation, and Invisibility, all detailed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at 1st level and again at 3rd, 7th, 13th, and 17th level.

Brain Talk

Starting at your 1st level, your mind awakens to the ability to communicate via telepathy. You can telepathically speak to any creature that you can see within 120 feet of you in this manner. You don’t need to share a language with the creature for it to understand your telepathic messages, but the creature must be able to understand at least one language or be telepathic itself. you can use your telepathy to initiate and maintain telepathic conversations with up to ten creatures at a time. Your brain can let those creatures telepathically hear each other while connected in this way.

In addition, those that also have Brain Talk may establish a connection and telepathically communicate up to 1000 feet from each other. The range increases again at levels 11 (1 kilometer) and 17 (10 kilometers).

Evasive Maneuvers

Starting at 2nd level, your extensive combat training has heightened your reflexes far beyond human levels allowing you to effortlessly dodge even the most devastating attacks. When you are targeted by a creature for a melee attack or a ranged attack you may use your reaction to perform a Dexterity saving throw of DC 15 + Dexterity Modifier of the Opponent. On a success, you take no damage and can move up to 10ft in a direction of your choice without provoking Attacks of Opportunity. You can use Evasive Maneuvers a number of times equal to your Proficiency bonus and you regain any expended uses when you finish a short rest.

Training Regiment

Starting at 2nd level, you become an expert at transporting yourself around the battlefield. As a bonus action on your turn, you can jump up to 30 feet in the air. Roll an Dexterity (acrobatics) or Strength (athletics) check. The DC for this check is half the amount of feet you wish to jump up or 10 (whichever is higher). On a success, you jump up that amount of feet, on a fail you only go half as high. You remain in the air until the end of your turn, during which you cannot move, you then fail into a space of your choice within an X radius of the point you jumped up from. X equals the amount of feet up you jumped, rounded down to the nearest 5 feet.

If you land in a space occupied by a creature, you are both knocked prone and both take 2d6 bludgeoning damage. If you succeeded the jump check, you don't fall prone and takes half the bludgeoning damage. If the creature is of a larger size than you, its not knocked prone and take half the bludgeoning damage. The creature is then pushed into the nearest unoccupied space.

Ability Score Improvement

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.

Extra Attack

At 5th level, when you take the attack action, you may attack an additional time.

Psionic Barriers

Starting at 6th level, you gain advantage in saving throws against frightened, charmed, mind control effects and any affect that would attempt to alter your mind.

Psionic Drain

Starting at 9th level, you gain the ability to sacrifice your physical durability in exchange for psionic power. When activating a psionic discipline, you can pay its psi point cost with your hit points, instead of using any psi points. Your current hit points and hit point maximum are both reduced by doubled the number of psi points you spend. This reduction can’t be lessened in any way, and the reduction to your hit point maximum lasts until you finish a short or long rest.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier per long rest.

SAS Archetypes

SAS: Gravikinesis

(created by https://scarletnexus.wiki.fextralife.com/Psychokinesis)

Bonus Proficiencies

At 1st level, you gain proficiency in Dexterity Save, the skills acrobatics, investigation, and sleight of hand. If you already had proficiency in any of these skills gain expertise.

Kinetic Weapons

Starting at 1st level, if you have at least 3 psi points. You can use your psionics to have flying weapons that float around, you may use them to make a melee or range attacks. You can have a number of weapons equal to half your Intelligence modifier rounded up (Minimum 1, Maximum 3). These weapons may immediately return to you as a bonus action when you use an attack or feature that sends them out. Every weapon has their own set of properties shown in the following list:

Conceal

At the start of combat, any weapon with this property is considered concealed if it is not equipped. If you attack with a concealed weapon, you can roll a (Intelligence) Sleight of Hand check against the target's passive Perception score. On success, your attack gains advantage, and the enemy is treated as if surprised for this attack.

Once you use this property, you cannot benefit from it again for any creature which observed you using the property, until you successfully hide. A creature can roll a Perception check against your passive Sleight of Hand or Arana score, and if successful, they spot your concealed weapons, removing any benefit from this property for the duration of the encounter or until you successfully hide again.

Deflect

When struck by a melee weapon attack, you can use your reaction to deflect some damage you would receive. If wielding one Deflect weapon, you can roll your weapon's damage, add your Intelligence modifier, then subtract that total from the damage you would receive from a source you can see. If you are wielding a Deflect weapon with two hands, you can add your Intelligence modifier twice to this total or add your Dexterity in addition to your Intelligence modifier if your weapon has the Finesse property. If you are wielding two Deflect weapons, you can roll both weapons Deflect rolls and take the highest result or you can choose to deflect another attack using your off-hand weapon, as part of the same reaction. You do not add your modifier to the off-hand Deflect roll unless you have the Two-Weapon Fighting Style.

Deflect does not interact with any other weapon property, such as Balanced, Keen, or Puncture; you simply roll your weapon's damage dice normally.

Keen

This weapon is extraordinarily sharp or devastatingly accurate. When you score a critical hit or a powerful blow with this weapon, add an additional damage die to the weapon damage dice and any attachers rolled. The added damage die is not doubled from a critical hit.

Slip

This weapon is designed to slip into gaps of armor or natural protection such as bones or scales. When you have advantage, this weapon gains an additional damage die.

Steady

This weapon is designed to allow its wielder to shoot on the move. When you use a dash or disengage action, you can use your bonus action to make one ranged attack with this weapon if equipped and loaded.

Stagger

The weight of your weapon can stagger the enemy's defense, knocking them off balance. When you miss a creature that you can see without rolling a 1, but the total is less than the target's AC up to an amount equal to your Intelligence modifier if your weapon is wielded with two hands, or half your Intelligence modifier if you wield a weapon with one-hand, the next attack against this creature before the start of its next turn gains advantage. If your Intelligence modifier is 0 or less, the minimum for both of these is 1.

When you hit, you can deal only your Intelligence modifier in damage, minimum of 1, and impart this effect voluntarily. When you score a critical hit, you always Stagger your enemy. You cannot Stagger targets two sizes larger than you. A ranged weapon with the Stagger property, substitutes Dexterity for Strength in this case.

Puncture

These piercing weapons deal significantly more damage if they hit a vital weak spot in the enemy. When you roll a maximum value with any of your weapon's piercing damage dice, you can roll that dice again and add the result to the total damage dealt. This can keep happening as many times as you roll maximum values on damage dice, even on the new rolls. New dice generated by the Puncture property are not affected by any other property except Puncture itself.

If the target is 1 size larger than large, nothing happens. If the creature or object impacts a solid surface as result of being pushed or pulled, it takes 1d6 points of bludgeoning damage for every 5 feet after 10.

Furthermore, when a physical projectile is fired at a target within 15 feet of you, you can spend 5 psi points and use your reaction to pull the projectile towards yourself, making you the new target of the attack, the attack roll is then rolled against your AC.
