Umbrella Block

At 1st level, as a reaction when targeted with a ranged weapon or ranged spell attack, you may swing the umbrella and toss it into the sky giving you a +2 to your ac for the triggering attack. The umbrella takes 12 seconds to hit the ground once thrown.

Bound Blade

At 1st level, You can use your bonus action to create a Bound Blade in your empty hand. You can choose the form that this melee weapon takes each time you create it. You are proficient with it while you wield it. This weapon counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

• Your Bound Blade disappears if it is more than 5 feet away from you for 1 minute or more. It also disappears if you use this feature again, if you dismiss the weapon (no action required), or if you die.
• You can transform one magic weapon into your Bound Blade by performing a special ritual while you hold the weapon. You perform the ritual over the course of 1 hour, which can be done during a short rest.
• You can then dismiss the weapon, shunting it into an extradimensional space, and it appears whenever you create your pact weapon thereafter. You can't affect an artifact or a sentient weapon in this way. The weapon ceases being your Bound blade if you die, if you perform the 1-hour ritual on a different weapon, or if you use a 1-hour ritual to break your bond to it. The weapon appears at your feet if it is in the extradimensional space when the bond breaks.
• Your Bound blade may use dexterity instead of strength.

at 10th level you can bind to a ranged weapon and you may now have 2 Bound weapons in total.

The weapon must have the two-handed or versatile property for you to gain this benefit.
• Interception (TCE). When a creature you can see hits a target, other than you, within 5 feet of you with an attack, you can use your reaction to reduce the damage the target takes by 1d10 + your proficiency bonus (to a minimum of 0 damage).
