Vision

At 1st level, you become a Vision Holder and must have your Vision Amulet with you. Upon having a vision, you gain access to Energy created by the Amulet. The Amulet must be exposed to ambient magic in order to create energy. Your vision gives you a single element and by using the energy, you can create one type of elemental effect. All damage dealt to the target by using your Vision’s energy will do the Vision’s damage type. When you do damage, you also recover 1 Energy. You also regain all expended Energy on a long rest. In addition, you can use your bonus action to see into the ethereal plane up to 30 ft until your next turn.

Vision Type Table

Vision Damage Type	Fire	Acid	Thunder	Force	Lightning	Cold	Poison

Preferred Weapon

Also at 1st level, you know your way in a fight with a certain weapon or object. Choose a single type of weapon or arcane focus as your Preferred Weapon. When you make an attack or cast a spell, add 1d4 to the weapon damage die.

Your Vision and the magic bestowed on you by your God have given you facility with spells.

Cantrips

You know one cantrip from the Vision Holder spell list. You learn additional Vision Holder cantrips at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Vision Holder table.

Energy Casting

The Vision Holder table shows how much Energy you can have. The table also shows the highest level of the spell you can cast. To cast one of your Vision Holder spells of 1st level or higher, you must expend energy equal to 5 + spell level * 5.

For example, to cast the 1st-level spell, you must spend 10 energy. If you were to cast a 2nd-level spell, you must spend 15 energy.

At 1st level, you know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the Vision Holder spell list. The Spells Known column of the Vision Holder table shows when you learn more Vision Holder spells of your choice of 1st level or higher. A spell you choose must be of a level no higher than what's shown in the table's Max Spell Level column for your level. When you reach 6th level, for example, you learn a new Vision Holder spell, which can be 1st or 2nd level. Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the Vision Holder spells you know and replace it with another spell from the Vision Holder spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

You can choose to replace the spell's original damage with your Vision Damage Type.

Spellcasting Ability

Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your Vision Holder spells, so 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 Vision Holder spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
