Psion - Expanded Options

# Psion: Expanded Options v1.3

### What is this?
These are the Expanded Options and additional resources for the [Psion](https://www.gmbinder.com/share/-LZSNMgmChWNGW979hrj/) class written by /u/KibblesTasty.

> ##### Balance Disclaimer!
>
> Much like my similar document for the Artificer, the Expanded Options are one part additional options, and one part my testing ground for new things that will eventually work their way into the class, but are currently being playtested.
>
> Content found within is often in various states of playtesting, and while as all at least receieved some balance and testing from me and the community, not all of it is as polished as the primary class content would be expected to be.
>
> Always give things from the Expanded Options a second read to see if it fits your game.

### This is Your Life (Psion)

#### Class Training

#### Quirks

|   d12   | Quirks |
|:---:|:---------------------------:|
| 1   | After long periods of meditation, you find parts of your personality you haven't talked to in awhile and have a good conversation.
| 2   | You think Divine and Arcane magic is unnatural and creepy, and suffer it's effects only reluctantly.

### Precognition
Precognition is the ability to see what lies ahead, piercing the veil of the future. Seeing things that most people cannot a Psion with Precognitive abilites can, to a limited extent, know the future; such a future is known by tracing it's roots from the present, and grows more mysterious and cloudy as such roots grow distance.

Such a future can be changed by the actions of the present, particularly by knowledge of said future and action to prevent or change it. This is the function most often leveraged by Precognitive Psions, peering into the future to steer around courses they seek to prevent or steer toward a possible outcome they seek.

#### 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:

| Point Cost | Alternate Effects | 
|:-------------:|:----------------:|
|  1            | *detect good and evil, identify, future insight** |
|  2            | *augury†, glimpse the future*,* *locate object* |
|  3            | *fear†, clairvoyance* |
|  4            | *death ward†, divination* |
|  5            | *legend lore, scrying* |

___

†*augury* has the same effect, but does not consult a specific entity when cast in this way.

___

†*fear* has the same effect, shows a the creature visions of their own death when cast in this way.

___

†*death ward* has the same effect, but gives a forewarning to a creature allowing them to avoid death when cast in this way.

### Nullification
Nullification is the ability to interfere with the supernatural effects of the world, reverting reality back it's original state.

#### 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.

> ##### What is a Supernatural Effect?
>
> Outside of spells or psionic powers, what a supernatural effect is will be up to your DM. I would typically consider things like a Beholder's ability to float, a banshee's screech, a medusa's gaze, or similar effects to be an innate supernatural property that could be temporarily suppressed when the criteria was met.

#### 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:

| Point Cost | Alternate Effects | 
|:-------------:|:----------------:|
|  1            | *protection from evil and good* |
|  2            | *nullify effect**
|  3            | *dispel magic, counterspell, remove curse* |
|  4            | *banishment* |
|  5            | *dispel evil and good* |

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

# Subclasses

### 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.

> ##### Wandering Mind: Quick Build
>
> As with all Psions, the possibities are endless, but a Wandering Mind has a unique affinity with Dexterity due to their Agile Slider trait and martial weapon proficiency. They tend to synergize best with the Phase Shot or Phase Slash talents to fully realize their jumping, slashing, and shooting potential.

#### Spacial Manipulation
At 1st level when you select this archetype, you mind grows a greater perspective on the nature of space and dimensions, allowing you to manipulate it and your relation to it, granting you the psionic discipline of Transpositional.

#### Nomad's Gear
Additionally at 1st level, you gain proficiency with martial weapons and medium armor.

#### Curious Mind
Starting at 3rd level, your wandering mind adapts to new situations constantly. At the end of a long rest select two skills you do not have proficiency in, until the end of your next long rest, you can add half your proficiency modifier (rounded down) to ability checks for those skills.

#### Agile Slider
Additionally at 3rd level, your transdimensional powers <br>are such that you can slide through the spaces you see<br> in dimensions as another slip through a tight space,<br> without conscious thought or effort. You can use your Dexterity ability score in place of your Intelligence ability score calculating the DC or attack roll modifier of Transpositional powers, alternate effects, or talents that require the Transpositional discipline.

#### Dimension Strider
Starting at 6th level, the base distance of your Phase Rift is increased by 10 feet.

#### Flickering Presence
Starting at 10th level, your unspent Psionic Mastery points are not lost until the start of your next turn, but can only be used to cast *flicker*.

Additionally, when you roll for the effect of *flicker* or *blink* you can expend 1 psi point to reroll the result. You can select which of the two results you would like to use.

#### Planeswalker
Starting at 14th level, your understanding of how to traverse space expands to a previously incomprehensible scale. You gain the ability to cast *planeshift* and *teleport*, and can use your 7th level or Higher use of Innate Psionics to cast these spells instead of the spell selected for that level. If you already have one of these spells selected for your 7th level Innate Psionic power, you can select a new 7th level spell from the Psion list for that slot.

#### Winding Paths
Additionally at 14th level, your phase rift no longer has to go in a straight line, though it must be made up of consecutive ten foot straight lines and cannot overlap with itself.

> ##### Geometry of Winding Paths.
>
> The easiest way to think of it is you can take one right angle turn every 10 feet of your phase rift.

### Elemental Mind

An Elemental Mind Psion carries a psionic link to a primal power, some have a link to a particular element while others find all elements within their mind, raging an eternal war. Often viewed as dangerous, they can erupt with power if not careful, but in time can gain great mastery over the elements.

#### 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,

___
Your roll 3d4 or 1d12 (your choice) and record the results. During the duration, you can add or subtract the dice you rolled from any attack roll, saving throw, or ability check made by a creature within 60 feet of you, until the dice are exhausted or the spell ends. You must expend the die after the roll is made, but before you know the outcome of the roll.

#### Glimpse the Future
*2nd-level psionic*
___
- **Casting Time:** 1 action
- **Range:** 60 feet
- **Components:** S
- **Duration:** 10 minutes.
___
You give a creature within range a glimpse of their future. Roll a d4 for to determine outcome.

| Result | Effect |
|:------:|:------:|
| 1 | The target foresees an action to come. Roll a d20 and record the value. Until the duration of the spell ends, they can replace one of their attack rolls, ability checks, or saving throws with the value.
| 2 | The target sees their own death. If they are reduced to zero hit points by an attack or failing a save throw during the duration, they instead evade the attack or pass the saving throw if they are not other incapicated prior to being reduced to zero.
| 3 | They see a future victory, growing confident. They gain 10 temporary hit points and are immune to the *frightened* condition for the duration of the spell.
| 4 | The target sees an ambush or surprise, the first time they would be surprised they are not or the first time an attack would made against them with advantage, it is instead made with disadvantage.

Once any of the events foreseen occur, the spell ends.

**At Higher Levels:** When cast using 3 or more psi points, you can select the effect instead of rolling a d4.

> ##### 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.

Any creature that starts their turn in this beam must make a Dexterity saving throw. On failure, they take 8d8 damage of the beams energy type, taking half as much on a successful save.

While you are concentrating on this spell, your movement speed is zero. At the start of your next turn, you can use your action to maintain the beam or redirect it, rotating it up to 90 degrees. Any creature the beam passes through while rotating (if the beam passes completely through them and they will not start their turn inside of it) must make a Dexterity saving throw immediately, taking 4d8 damage of the beams energy type on a failed save, and taking no damage on a successful save.

\pagebreakNum

#### Inner World
*8th-level psionic*

___
- **Casting Time:** : 1 action.
- **Range:** Self.
- **Components:** S
- **Duration:**  Concentration, Up to 1 minute.
___
As an action, you create and enter an imaginary world. All other creatures within 120 feet are pulled this world with you. This world is centered on you, and extends in 120 feet in all directions.

A creature that reaches the edge of this world can make a Charisma saving throw to attempt to exit, spending 5 feet of movement to return where they were before being pulled into the world on success, and being unable to move out the world until the start of their next turn on failure. A creature outside the world can attempt to enter it by moving to where you cast the spell (which is marked by a glowing psionic rift) and making a Charisma saving throw to enter the world. You can allow a creature to automatically pass their save to enter or exit the world.

When you create this world, you can create obstacles and terrain of your choice, creating walls, pillars, and other obstacles that take up to twenty 5 by 5 square foot areas (stylistically, these can appear however you choose). These can be placed consecutive or spread out in any method of your choosing, but any area with a creature must contain an path that creature can fit through to both you and the edge of the of the world.

\columnbreak

Each of these hazards must be at least 20 feet from another hazard.

While in this inner world, if you fail saving throw, you choose to succeed instead. You can do up to 3 times during the duration of the spell. All spells and powers have their psi point cost reduced by one.

During the spell, as an action, you can cause attempt to destroy a creature within the world. The target must make an Intelligence saving throw. On failure, it takes 8d8 + 8 psychic damage and is removed from the imaginary world, returning to where they were before being pulled into it.

The world can be bright or dim light, and you control the weather within it.

When the spell ends, you and any creature that remains in the world exit the world returning to space you entered the world from.

> ##### Quickly Constructed Worlds
>
> The casting time of this spell is 1 action, which is 6 seconds in game. While this should not be taken literally, it is also an indication that this is a quickly constructed world. It is recommended that that you come up with a general layout and any resources needed for this spell in collaboration with your DM when you *select* the spell, and make at most minor changes to the world when casting it. It is reasonable for a DM to limit world planning time to one minute.

When you finish a long rest, your dreams have prepared you for the day to come. Upon waking, you issue reassuring words and advice to your companions to help them survive the day, giving them temporary hit points equal to your Intelligence modifier. During the next 24 hours, you cannot be surprised.

#### Projected Weaponry
*Prerequisite: Projection*

When you project a weapon with your Project Item feature, it gains the following benefits:
* You can project it as a bonus action and you can project up 3 weapons or pieces of ammunition at the same time.
* You are proficient with any projected weapon.
* It is no longer restricted to a maximum of 3 feet when it takes the form of a weapon (for a medium sized creature).
* You can use your Intelligence modifier in place of your Strength or Dexterity modifier for attack and damage rolls with it.
* If it has the thrown property, it's throwing range is doubled. If it does not have the thrown property, it gains the Thrown (10/30) property.
* You can apply the Astral Construct modifiers Grow and Sustain to projected weaponry. Grow adds 1d8 to the weapon's damage dice. You can expend Psionic Mastery on these modifiers.

> ##### Shaper's Projected Weaponry
> 
> Note that a Shaper can add their Intelligence to damage dealt with anything created by the Projection Discipline, meaning they could add the Intelligence to weapons created by Projected Weaponry twice.

#### Propelled Bound
*Prerequisite: Telekinesis or Psychokinetics*

When you move on your turn, you can expend movement, up to 20 feet, in single bounding leap, propelled by telekinetic power or psychokinetic force.

#### Reflected Suffering
*Prerequisite: Empathy*

When a creature deals damage to you, you can spend expend 1 or more psi points (up to your psi limit) to share the pain you experienced back at them, dealing 1d10 psychic damage per point spent. The damage this deals cannot exceed the damage taken from the attack.

#### Tantrum
*Prerequisite: Unleashed Mind subclass*

Your anger boils just beneath the surface. When you roll initiative, you can instantly increase your rampage die by one step (from a d4 to a d6, for example). Additionally, if you take damage while your rampage die is a d6 or lower, your rampage die increases by one step.

#### Telekinetic Barrier
*Prerequisite: Telekinesis*

You focus your telekinetic power spreading it thin to create a large barrier. Expending 2 psi points, you create a wall of weak telekinetic force up to 40 feet long, or as a 15 radius around you. This barrier is visible as small objects hover and float within it. If you create it around yourself, it moves when you move. Ranged attacks that pass through this barrier are made with disadvantage as their trajectory is deflected.

You can maintain this barrier by concentrating, as if concentrating on a spell, for up to 1 minute after creating it.

#### Telekinetic Movement
*Prerequisite: Telekinesis*

You can expend a psi point to gain 10 additional feet of movement and the effect of *spiderclimb*, *feather fall*, or *levitate* until the start of your next turn. At the start of your next turn you can expend a psi point to maintain the effect before it would end.

\pagebreakNum

#### Tranquil Meditation
*Prerequisite: Enhancement*

When you take a short rest and expend hit dice, both you and any allied creatures that takes a short rest within 60 feet of you regains additional hit points equal to the number of hit dice you expend + your intelligence modifier.

> ##### Note: Number of Hit Dice
>
> This restores hit points equal to the *number* of hit dice rolled, not the value rolled on them. For example, if you expend two hit dice rolling 4, and 5, you grant allied creatures 2 + your intelligence modifier additional hit points regained.

#### Precise Power
*Prerequisite: Telekinesis, 9th level Psion, Incompatible with Unchecked Power*

The spell *animate objects* is added to your Alternate Effect list for Telekinesis.

Additionally, as a reaction to a ranged weapon attack being made against a target within 60 feet of you, you can expend a psi point to add or subtract 2d4 to or from that attack roll. You can do this after the attack is rolled, but before you know the outcome of the roll.

#### Unchecked Power
*Prerequisite: Telekinesis, 9th level Psion, Incompatible with Precise Power,*

The spell *shockwave* is added to your Alternate Effect list for Telekinesis

Additionally, as a reaction to a melee attack being made against you, you can expend a psi point to shove the creature away. The creature must make a Strength saving throw, or be knocked 10 feet backwards. If this puts the attack out of reach, it automatically misses.

>
> Obviously Combat Psionics and Psionic Sniper are parallels to the spell casting feats War Caster and Spell Sniper, but with some tweaks to apply to psionics and better fit in with how they work. You can alternatively allow those feats to work with Psionics if you and your DM prefer.

# Psionic Items

Though there are certainly magical items that exist in the DMG that psionic characters might want, there are many gaps left by the fact that they were not part of the design of the game when the DMG was written. The following are a series of magic items for DMs to consider adding to their game for psionic characters, or to draw inspiration to create their own psionic items from. Some of these could be central to a character, while others are simple items that add to their progression or are just cool toys that use psionics rather than magic.

> ##### 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.

### Psionic Crystals

##### Amplifying Crystal

*Wondrous Item, Uncommon/Rare/Very Rare (requires attunement by a Psionic)*

___

While holding this crystal, you gain a bonus to psionics attack rolls and to the psionic saving throw DCs of your psionic abilities. The bonus is determined by the crystal's rarity

In addition, when you use a psionic power, you can gain add a number of psi points determined by the crystal's rarity; these points can only be used on psionic powers, but can exceed your normal psi limit. You can't use this property again until you finish a long rest.

| Rarity | Modifier | Points Added |
|:------:|:--------:|:------------:|
| Uncommon | +1 | 1 |
| Rare | +2 | 2 |
| Very Rare | +3 | 3 |

##### Focusing Crystal

*Wondrous Item, Uncommon, (requires attunement by a Psionic)*

While holding this crystal, you can use it to focus your mind, more perfectly opening your psionic senses. You can use this spell to cast *clairvoyance* without expending psi points. Once while the effect is active, you can use a Psionic ability (power, spell or talent) that does not deal damage on a creature within range of the sensor as if it was in range and sight of you. You can't use this property again until you finish a long rest.

At the start of your turn, you can focus this crystal (as if concentrating on a spell) and reduce your movement speed to zero. When you do so, until the end of your turn the range of all psionic abilities with a range other than touch are doubled.

\columnbreak

##### Resonating Crystal

*Wondrous Item, Uncommon, (requires attunement by a Psionic)*

This is a crystal that has been fundamentally warped by exposure to psionic powers. It now holds the perfect resonance to trap and hold psionic energy, though it does not naturally generate it.

While holding this crystal, as an action you can imbue up to 4 psi points into it. While it is imbued it gives off 10 feet of bright light and 10 feet of dim light with a eerie purple hue.

If it has one or more points imbued in it, as an action you can reclaim the psi points stored in it, regaining expended psi points from it up to your maximum psi points.

##### Psi Blade Crystal
*Wondrous Item, Uncommon/Rare/Very Rare*

Embedded in a ring, braclet, bladeless sword hilt, or similar item, this small gem seems to have minimal value to the casual observer, but has perfect psionic resonance.

While carried by a Way of the Soul Knife Monk, that monk can use this crystal to focus a purer Soul Knife, adding +1/+2/+3 (based on rarity) to attack and damage rolls with their Soul Knife.

Some crystals come in various colors, and change the hue of your psi blade to match the color of the crystal.

### Psionic Items

##### Purity of Mind

*Wondrous Item, Rare, (requires attunement by a Psionic)*

A blindfold made of heavy silken cloth, it is emblazoned with strange patterns. When worn, you are lose any normal vision that relies on your eyes and are *blinded* but gain several benefits as your mind is cleared of visual distractions.

* You gain a mindsight of 60 feet, allowing you to see creatures with an intelligence of 6 or higher within range as if by blindsight. A creature you are unaware of can still be hidden from you.
* You gain a blindsight of 10 feet. If you already have a blindsight, its range is increased by 10 feet.
* You are immune to effects that require you to see the target or effect, even if they are within your mindsight or blindsight.

##### Psionically Attuned Weapon

*Melee Weapon(any), Uncommon*

This weapon is perfectly attuned to conducting psionic energy. While wielding it, you gain the Psionic Weapon talent, but it can only be used when targeting this weapon. When you use Psionic Weapon in this way, it requires only 1 psi point to activate.

\pagebreakNum

##### Soul Shard

*Wondrous Item, Legendary, (requires attunement by a Psionic)*

A crystalized fragment of a dead psionic creature. How these form, few know. Many suspect dark secrets at their origin. These shards can be driven into the flesh of another psionic creature, dealing 1d4 piercing damage and 4d12 psychic damage and causing them to instantly become attuned to it. When you do so, you gain access to a Psionic Discipline that the creature it was formed from presumably had, along with one flaw formed from the fragment of their soul within the shard.

When you find a soul shard, the DM can determine the Discipline it contains and the flaw it confers while attuned, you can roll on the following table to determine them.

To unattune to it, must spend an action to try to rip it free. You must succeed a DC 15 Charsma saving throw. Each time you fail this this save, you take 4d12 psychic damage.

| d6| Discipline | 
|:----------:|:----:|
| 1 | Telekinesis | 
| 2 | Telepathy |
| 3 | Enhancement |
| 4 | Psychokinetics |
| 5 | Transposition |
| 6 | Precognition |

|     d6     | Flaw | 
|:--:|:----:|
| 1 | Your anger grows harder to control, your eyes change color and start glowing when you become angry. |
| 2 | You hear a faint screaming at all times. It sounds almost... familiar. |
| 3 | A strange swirling tattoo-like scar very slowly grows from where it pierces you that burns painfully. |
| 4 | When you sleep, you have nightmares about another life filled with horror, fear and revulsion. |
| 5 | You cannot remember your own name, even when told. |
| 6 | You grow small vestigial tentacles along your jawline like a strange beard after being attuned to it for 1d4 days. |
