This is Your Life (Psion)

Prescience

Your eyes wander to events before they happen. You can add your proficiency to perception and initiative rolls; if you already are able to add your proficiency to perception, you can add twice your proficiency.

If you concentrate on your keeping an eye on the future (as if concentrating on a spell), you can use your Intelligence modifier when making Perception (instead of Wisdom) or Initiative (instead of Dexterity) ability checks, and make Intelligence saving throws in place of Dexterity saving throws.

Seeing

Psionic Power

• Casting Time: 1 Action
• Range: Self
• Components: S
• Duration: Instantaneous

You concentrate and peer into the stream of future possibilities, gaining insight into what will happen next; you can select one of the following:

• You can grant advantage to yourself or to a creature that can see or hear you on their next attack roll before the start of your next turn; if an attack that gained advantage from this feature hits, it deals an additional 1d4 damage.
• You can grant disadvantage on the next attack roll against yourself or a creature that can see or hear you before the start of your next turn; if an attack despite the disadvantage, the damaged creature rolls 1d4 and subtracts that from the damage dealt.

You can spend Psi Points up to your per use limit to add the following modifiers to Seeing (you can add multiple modifiers).

Withheld (0 psi point): Rather than granting advantage or disadvantage on the next attack, you can grant advantage or disavantage as a reaction to an attack being made until the start of your next turn.

Piercing (1+ psi points): You see through the target's defenses when granting advantage, increasing the damage of the attack benefiting from advantage by +1d8 if it hits.

Omniscient (1 psi points): The beneficiary of your Seeing is under the effect of bless and guidance until start of your next turn.

Thwarting (2 psi point): The beneficiary of your Seeing has advantage on the next Saving Throw they make before the start of your next turn.

Positioning (1+ psi points): The beneficiary of your Seeing can move immediately move 5 feet per psi point spent without provoking opportunity attacks.

Alternate Effects

Additionally, when you learn the Precognition psionic discipline you can use your Psionics feature to cast the following spells as per the rules defined in the feature:

Disruptive Touch

When you gain this feature, you can control the aura of interference, wreathing yourself in the disruptive power that asserts reality. You can end minor magical or psionic effects (such as the result of cantrips or zero point psionic powers) by touching them, and have resistance to illusions or magical damage from things you touch (gaining advantage on the saving throw against them, if applicable).

If you are grappling or otherwise touching a spellcasting or psionic creature, at the start of your turn you can expend 1 or more psi to interfere with their abilities until the start of your next turn. In order to cast a spell or use a Psionic power, they must succeed a Saving Throw of their spell casting or psionic ability score against your Psionics DC unless casting a spell with a higher level or using a power with more psi points than the psi points spent on this feature.

Denial

Psionic Power

• Casting Time: 1 Action
• Range: 30 feet
• Components: S
• Duration: Instantaneous

You release a burst of raw psionic nullification at a creature you can see within range. The creature must make a Charisma saving throw. On failure, you can apply 1d4 force damage as its existence is disrupted.

If the target is a aberration, celestial, construct, elemental, fey, fiend, undead, or a creature with the ability to cast spells or use psionic powers it takes an additional 1d4 force damage, and becomes disoriented; until the end of its next turn, it rolls a d4 and subtracts the number rolled from all its attack rolls and ability checks, as well as its Constitution saving throws to maintain concentration.

A creature can chose to fail the saving throw.

You can spend Psi Points up to your per use limit to add the following prefixes to Denial modifying it's functionality (you can add multiple prefixes). The points must be spent when choosing the target of the power.

Aura of (3 psi points): Instead of targeting a creature, it becomes an effect around you with a radius of 20 feet until the start of your next turn; any creature of your choice that enters or starts its turn in the area of effect must save against the power.

Existential (1+ psi points): You can deal an additional 1d4 initial and bonus (if applicable) force damage to the target creature.

Firm (2 psi points): The target creature has disadvantage on the saving throw against the ability.

Lingering (1+ psi points): You can apply the effect of Disruptive Touch to an affected creature.

Supernatural (1+ psi points): A supernatural effect of or on the creature is ended; if the effect is a magical or psionic power, it is only ended if the psi points spent on this modifier equals or exceeds the spell level or psi points spent on the effect.

If the property is an innate property of a creature (either of the target creature, or effecting the target this power), it is only ended if the psi points exceed the CR (or class levels) of the target creature, and they return at the end of that creatures next turn. The supernatural effect cannot be its existence, unless it has less than 10 hit points and it would otherwise qualify.

Alternate Effects

Additionally, when you learn the Nullification psionic discipline you can use your Psionics feature to cast the following spells as per the rules defined in the feature:

If a spell can be cast at a higher level, you can spend an additional psi point to cast it at that higher level.

Wandering Mind

A Wandering Mind is among the more mysterious incarnates of psions, these are individuals that just aren't quite rooted in the same reality everyone else is... they find it more pliable and slippery, and prone to jumping right through it on occasion.

How they get their powers varies. Some were born in the ethereal plane or went through a portal too young. Sometimes it is just that their mind just works along an axis most people cannot understand. No matter its source, they manifest a truly unique ability to treat certain aspects of the metaphysical with a certain mundanity, and are prone to treating their powers as absolutely natural things as one might use an arm or a leg.

They tend toward curious and chaotic, unbounded and hard to pin down, they are natural wanderings in mind and body.

Natural Force

At 1st level when you select this archtype, you gain a deep intrinsic tie to elemental power, granting you the ability to manipulate it. You gain the psionic discipline of Psychokinetics.

One with the Elements

Additionally at 1st level, you learn the absorb elements spell, and can expend 1 psi point to cast it.

If you selected a specialization of the Psychokinetics discipline, you can only cast it when effected by that element's type (cold, fire or lightning), but casting it does not require any psi points.

Living Power

Starting at 3rd level, your mastery of the elements is an art form, causing them to act as if they were alive in your command, sculpting to your will. When you use a power or alternate effect of psychokinetics, you can infuse the power with your will and apply one of the following infusion modifiers to it:

• Forming: The power forms into a melee weapon (like a blade). When you would make a ranged spell attack, making a melee spell attack instead.
• Controlling: When you would target an arena, you can select a number of creatures equal to the psi points spent on the power or spell in that area for the elemental power to ignore, passing harmless around them. These creatures automatically succeed on their saving throws against the spell, and they take no damage if they would normally take half damage on a successful save.
• Reaching: The power stretches out reaching for its target. When you make a melee spell attack, you can give a reach of 15 feet. When you make a ranged spell attack, you double its range.

Alternatively you if you do not attempt to modify the power, the living powers rage more wildly and when you roll damage for the power or spell, you can reroll one damage die of the result per psi point spent. You must use the new roll.

Empowered Psionics

Starting at 6th level, when you deal damage with a Psionic Discipline power you can add your Intelligence modifier to the damage dealt.

Primordial Forms

Starting at 10th level, as a bonus action, you can expend 1 psi point to allow your powers to engulf you and briefly assume a primordial form

• As fire you gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed until the start of your next turn, and you can pass through creatures, small holes, narrow openings, and even mere cracks, though you treat liquids as though they were solid surfaces.
• As lightning you can travel up to 60 feet (with flying speed) instantly, passing through creatures and difficult terrain without expending additional movement.
• As ice you gain resistance to all damage besides fire, force, and psyhcic until the start of your next turn.

The first time you your turn you pass through a creature as fire or lightning, that creature must make a Dexterity saving throw against your psionics DC, taking 2d8 damage of that elemental type on failure. If you selected a specialization of the Psychokinetics discipline, you can only use the element associated with your specialization, but it does not require a psi point to activate.

Once you use this ability, you cannot use it again until you complete a short or long rest.

Supercharge

Starting at 14th level, at the start of your turn expend one psi point and you can reduce your movement speed to zero to concentrate, gathering an elemental power of your choice from cold, fire, and lightning and causing it swirl around you in visible and audible surging cloud of gathering power.

While this cloud of energy surrounds you, you are supercharged with elemental power. This lasts until the start of your next turn.

Whenever a creature within 5 feet of you hits you with a melee attack or ends their turn within 5 feet of you, they take 2d8 elemental damage of the type chosen.

While supercharged in this way, the first time you expend one psi point on an effect that deals the damage of selected elemental type, you treat it as spending 2 psi points if the effect would scale with additional psi points (a power modifications can be increased, a spell can be upcast, some talents can benefit).

Additionally, if you use the Overcharge modifier of Elemental Burst while supercharged, you do not take damage from overcharging,

The Unavoidable Death

In the case of number 2, passing the save would not always be enough to make them not be reduced to zero hit points. Sometimes they are reduced to zero by something like falling damage that has no save or attack. Sometimes life's a bummer that way.

Psionic Feats

Psionic Attunement

An item tagged with (requires attunement by a Psionic) is the counter part of the condition some items have "(requires attunement by a Spellcaster)", and means that only creatures with access to one or more Psionic Disciplines can attune to the item.
