# Psion v0.1
A young man meditates under a tree, holding a small bloody axe in his hand. A sudden look of shock and sadness comes across his face as he rises and looks behind a nearby boulder to find a patch of freshly dug dirt. He wept.<br>
An elf is beckoned to a small stall in a crowded market. The fortune teller accepts some change from the elf and brings him to a small private room. At the smallest drop in the fortune teller’s guard, a knife flies from the shelf, slitting her throat, killing her and revealing her to be a Rakshasa in disguise.

The militia orcs howl their battle cries and surge forward charging. To their
surprise, the human rabble holds its ground and fights with
inexplicably ferocity. Suddenly, mindless fear clings to the orcs’ minds
as they turn and run, never noticing the calm githyanki standing amid the humans and directing their efforts.<br>
These are examples of those who are called Psions. They are wielder of psionics, a mysterious power that is cultivated from within. They are masters of their inner space and use it to change not only themselves but also the world around them.

### Power of the Mind
Psionic power, as its users here named the Psions, has always been an alien element in a world of magic. Folks and most of people mistake the manifestations of such power as magic, maybe weirder than usual but hey, it's magic, you never know what's really going on. Different story for those who taps into the magical Weave and can feel that psionic power has no connection to it, making them wary of Psions and their powers; some magic wielders may be interested in those quite rare beings, while others may just be uncomfortable around them or even resent them, thinking they are an aberration to the world as they know it. <br>Psionic power is fueled by the mind, conscious or unconscious, by thoughts or emotions, but as for the quetion of where it really comes from, there is no right or definite answer: some say from an outer plane of existence, as the Astral Plane or the Far Realm, others that a psion mind is its own Weave, others from a underlying collective will of all Psions themselves, past, present and future. It's up to the DM choosing something that merges and fits well with how he imagined and shaped his world; letting the source of psionic power be an unsolved mistery is also a solid option. <br>Psions abilities include (but are not limited to) telekinesis, telepathy, mind reading and even space-time manipulation is not outside of their scope.

### Eccentric Ones
Psions are always a careless thought away from harming those around them, since the line between intention and reality is thin for them. This greatly impacts their personality, especially who is gifted since childhood, and how they live. They either keep their thoughts and emotion in check, almost suppressed, resulting in odd and distant behaviors while developing weird wonts and habits to help them keep control, or they live in a world of their own, letting their emotion and thus their power run amok, autentic, wild and free.

> #### Why this pamphlet? 
>Psionic power and users have always existed in every D&D edition, but in the 5th they still can't find their place (in official content ofc). This is an humble **giggle** attempt to suggest a way to make it happen. This is why it's only one class with a unique take on subclasses: they change the main ability score to focus on and in fact they are way more distant between themselves that subs in other classes. Reason is i don't believe wizard is willing to release 3 or more new classes just for psionic powers, so i tried stuffing all of them into one, following a bit the take on UA's Mystic

### Creating a Psion
When creating a Psion, consider your character's background. Some races may be more inclined to psionic powers than others. How did you become a Psion? Were you born with latent powers? Or did something happen to you granting your powers, like a reveletion, an epiphany or having touched/experienced a higher mind. Or did you intentionally train yourself through rigorous mental exercise to leverage them? Consider how developing a rare and mysterious power would have affected your interactions with people.

Consider what your purpose is with your newfound powers, or how you plan to use your powers. Do you intend to be taken for a Wizard casting magic, or are you freely open about being of a... different nature?

Also choose your Trace, as explained in the Psionics, Components and Trace section.

\pagebreakNum

### Psionics

#### Inner Psi Points
Starting at 1st level, you gain access to Psi Points used to fuel psionic Powers. You have a number of **Inner Psi Points** as detailed in the class table, and regain all spent points after completing a **long rest**. They represent a pool of inner psionic energy you have left (you can imagine them a bit as ki points of the mind). Whenever you are using psi points, both Inner and Outer (see Psi Accumulation at 5th lv), either by unleashing a Power or other features, you can't use at once more psi points than your Psi Limit, also detailed in the class table. For example, at level 4, you can spend at most 3 psi points on a psionic Power, Augments included.

#### Disciplines →Powers →Manifestations
Psionics Powers are categorized into 6 main branches (a bit like the 8 schools of magic), called Disciplines.

The 6 Disciplines are: Discipline of the **Awakened**, Discipline of the **Egoist**, Discipline of the **ElementalBound**, Discipline of the **Enlightened**, Discipline of the **Nomad** and Discipline of the **Shaper**.<br>All who awaken to Psionics are granted access to the general Discipline of the Awakened. At 1st lv you learn one Power of your choice from the Awakened list. You learn one more from such list at 3rd, 7th, 12th and 17th, as detailed in the class table. Each Power can manifest itself in a few ways, called Manifestations. You use a Manifestation as and when dictated in its description. So when saying you unleash a Power, it means you are using one of its Manifestations, perhaps with Augments.

Psionic Powers are suppressed by *anti-magic field* and can be dispelled with *dispel magic*, but  *counterspell* has no effect on them. Any check required to *dispel magic* an effect from a psionic source is made at disadvantage unless the caster also has the Psionics feature. The spell *detect magic* will detect the usage of psionics, but not their nature - it will show up as a mysterious untyped power. Generally speaking, psionic powers are considered magical for the purposes of interactions with other features.

#### Unleashing Powers
Once you know a Power, you can unleash any of its **Manifestations** by consuming the required psi points **only from your Inner Psi Points** pool. You can also increase the effect by using Augments of its Manifestation. The total cost of Manifestation + Augments must stay within Psi Limit. Some Augments require Inner Psi points but most can be fueled by either Inner or Outer.

Depending on your chosen Archetype you have a different Unleashing ability score, either INT, WIS or CHA. From now on this ability score is named **Source**. When you use Powers to make attacks or forcing saving throws, the following are used:

<div></div>
 <font face='scalysans' size='2'>
 <center> 
 
 **Power save DC** </font> = <font face='scalysans' size='2'> 8 + your proficiency bonus +

 <div style='margin-top:-8px'></div>

 </font>
 
\columnbreak

> ##### Spellcasting ↔ Power Unleashing 
>Here for briefness explanations are kept to a minimum, so if any problem or ambiguity arise, it may be resolved by refering to spellcasting rules, substituting spell with Power and cast with unleash. Anywhow, between what's written here and a look at the Powers everything should be quite clear.

#### Components and Trace
Powers are generally more direct and thus quick than spells. No Power require material components (some just an object on which the power is used) and you don't need focuses of sort, however some Powers require verbal or somatic components: for unleashing them you take precautions by abiding to determined personal wonts. For example to move an object telekinetically you move one of your hands to trace its path, or to forcefully invade and disrupt the mind of an enemy you shout a word or a short phrase.

Anyway all Psions have a distinctive visual characteristic that "turns on" when using psionics features or powers (and "stays on" while mantaining concentration on them), it is called the Trace. Each Psion have his own, always in the same form despite the power used. When others see it they generally understand some sort of magic or unnatural power may be going on. It can be a translucent halo around your head, eyes shining with light or turning into a abyss-like black, brimming energy originating from above your head, your skin darkens or brightens significally, your veins becomes visible and notably pulsing, etc. Decide in accordance to your DM, or make a list and roll to randomize.

> ##### Variant Rule Psionic Components 
>If the DM agrees, you can choose to unleash Powers that normally require components without them, by doing so you have a good chance to cause an additional out of control supernatural effect, strictly correlated to the Power used, often disruptive and negatively impacting for you.

### Psionic Archetype
At 1st level you pick the archetype of Psion you embody, choosing from Ardent, Immortal, Mystic or Portent, each of which are detailed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at 1st level, and again at 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 8th, and 14th level. Your archetype grants you also access to more Disciplines beside the Awakened one, as detailed in their Psi Source features.

### Telepathy
At 1st level you can communicate telepathically with any creature you can see within 60 feet of you, one at a time. You don’t need to share a language with the creature for it to understand your telepathic utterances, but the creature must be able to understand at least one language. This is a one way comunication only, from you towards your target.

\pagebreakNum

### Focus
At 2nd level you know how to focus on a Power to gain a constant benefit from it. As a bonus action, you can choose a Power you know to focus on, gaining its focus effect; each Power has its focus effect detailed in it.<br>You can't have more than one focus at a time. You can use this feature a number of times per **long rest** equal to your Source modifier. Once you have used your last one, your focus is considered **burned**, meaning you still retain its effects, but you can't change it again until you complete a long rest. You retain the effects of a focus only while conscious.

### 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.

### Psi Accumulation
When you reach 5th level your understanding of psionics deepens, as you learn to condense psionic energy on the boundary surface between your mind and your immediate surroundings. You gain a pool of **Outer Psi points**. The maximum amount of Outer Psi points you can have is equal to your Psi Limit. You maintain such pool with the strenght of your mind: if you fall unconscious or are stunned you lose all Outer Psi points. You can spend Outer Psi points only on Augments that don't have Inner Psi in their cost. While doing so, you still cannot spend at once total psi points beyond your Psi Limit.<br>
At the start of each turn if you are not stunned or unconscious you gain 1 Outer Psi point. At 11th level this is increased to 2 Outer Psi points, at 17th level this is increased to 3. Thus, unless you just used some Outer Psi points, outside of combat (and not asleep since you are unconscious then) and at the start of it you are considered to always have Outer Psi points equal to your Psi Limit.

### Greater Telepathy
At 7th level your telepathy becomes stronger. Its range is increased to 120 feet and the target can answer you telepathically if it whishes so.

### Short Focus
At 9th level you learn to better adapt your focus. Your focus **unburns** also at **short rests**, meaning you regain any expended uses of changing your focus when you finish a short or long rest.

### Resilient Mind
At 10th level your trained mind becomes flawless. You gain psychic damage resistance, you become immune to charm, frightened and stunned conditions and magic can't put you to sleep. Also mind reading and other magical effects attempting to control or influence your mind are negated if you don't allow it.

\columnbreak

### Reality Bending
At 16th level you become so powerful that, even if for a moment, your mind can overwrite reality itself. When you complete a long rest, choose one effect from the four below to gain it until you long rest again. You can use such effects only once per long rest.

* **Denial**: As an action, undo a recent event you witnessed happening in the last or present round, nullifying its effects.
* **Destiny**: As a bonus action, until the end of your next turn, you can choose to automatically succeed any attack rolls and saving throws and make any attack rolls made against you fail.
* **Power**: As a bonus action, your next Power this turn deals maximum damage.
* **Time**: As a bonus action, gain another turn at the end of the current one.

### Restless Focus
At 18th level your focus becomes everchanging. Your focus unburns at the start of your turn.

### Psionic Body
At 20th level your mastery of psionic power causes your mind to transcend the body. Your physical form is infused with psionic energy. You gain the following benefits:

* Your Source ability score increase by 4. Your maximum for that score is now 24.
* You no longer age.
* You are immune to disease, poison damage,
and the poisoned condition.
* If you die, roll a d20. On a 10 or higher, you discorporate with 0 hit points, instead of dying, and you fall unconscious. You and your gear disappear. You appear at a spot of your choice 1d3 days later on the plane of existence where you died, having gained the benefits of one long rest.

\pagebreakNum

> ##### Balanced? 
>To make so that you can't cast ad infinitum "spell level" effects outside of combat, Outer psi needed to be put on certain augments only, this way it's bounded by the inner pool that works as daily spell slots; and make no mistake, you have quite the limited pool compared to full casters: as rule of thumb this is a table of conversion for Inner psi
><table>
  <tr>
    <th>Psi</th>
    <td>1</td>
    <td>2</td>
    <td>3</td>
    <td>4-5</td>
    <td>6-7</td>
    <td>8-9</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <th>Spellslot lv</th>
    <td>1</td>
    <td>1, 2</td>
    <td>2, 3</td>
    <td>3, 4, 5</td>
    <td>4, 5, 6</td>
    <td>5, 6, 7</td>
  </tr>
</table>

this shows that going by inner psi only, psion would be an half caster class; the outer psi give it the other half. Also to remedy the lack of 7+ spell power there are the reality bending feature and the fact that the 18th (endless use of burn focus feature in archetype) and 20th lv ones are quite powerful. This doesn't cancel out the advantage full casters gains at high level from the possibility to cast 7th, 8th and 9th lv spells (as in the warlock, where you basically get them) but it's not meant that way: psionic powers are much more customizable, allowing you to tailor the psi used on the right level for the task, on average wasting less than spells. So full magic user may have bigger one-shot impacts, but Psions are more constant and well versed at micromanaging.

As for now i feel this class is overall a bit too powerful at middle levels. Besides it has a lot of features (considering the archtype also) for a "spellcasting" class, but for now i'm keeping them all since when designing, for me at least, it's easier to remove something than to create it. Moreover it's nice to have more cues here and there. Balancing this Psion it's not so easy: the unique mechanic of gaining constant fuel for "spell-like" effects, the Psi Accumulation, makes so that the longer the fights last, the more the balance shift in Psion favor. Also the fact you start each combat with Psi Limit outer psi points means the more you have fights in the day the more strong this is compared to other classes. All this is compensated by having the aforementioned smaller pool and not having cantrip-like manifestations scale: you have damaging powers at 0 psi but they don't automatically increase at 5, 11 and 17 lv, that's where psi acumulation kicks in. You can either use the gained outer psi to bring your "cantrip" on par with the norm each turn, or accumulate it to cast other powers with stronger augments.<br>This unique mechanic it's what makes the Psion different, feeling alien compared to magic users not only flavourwise but also while playing it too. All to breathe some fresh air in the D&D world.

## Psionic Archetypes

### Ardent
An Ardent psionics power comes mainly from feelings. Ardents are very straightforward when speaking to others, why lie or beat around the bush when you can feel others emotions and make them feel yours too?<br>
An Ardent Psion's power is most often an innate force they struggle to understand or control, a reflection of their state of mind and mood projected onto the world around them, often to devastating results.<br>An Ardent's life is often colorful and difficult to frame.

#### Empatic Master
At 1st level when you select this Archetype, your psionics innately enforce your presence on others. Choose between Intimidation or Persuasion: you gain proficiency bonus on the chosen skill, or if you are already proficient your prociciency bonus is doubled for making any ability check that uses the chosen skill.

#### Psi Source
At 1st level when you select this Archetype, **Charisma** becomes your Source ability score. You also gain proficiency on Charisma saving throws.<br>Moreover, you gain access to more Disciplines: choose between Discipline of the **Egoist** or Discipline of the **ElementlBound**. Your choice becomes your main Discipline and you learn one Power of your choice from it. You can learn one more when reaching level 5th, 9th and 15th.<br>At 2nd level you master the other Discipline you did not choose before, which becomes your secondary Discipline: choose and learn one Power from it. Choose again at 8th and 13th level.

You gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls you make with
ranged weapons.

##### Defense
While you are wearing armor, you gain a +1 bonus to AC.

make with a melee weapon that you are wielding with
two hands, you can reroll the die and must use the new
roll, even if the new roll is a 1 or a 2. The weapon must
have the two-handed or versatile property for you to gain
this benefit.

##### Protection

than you that is within 5 feet of you, you can use your
reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack roll. You
must be wielding a shield.

#### Psionic Shield

#### Extra Attack
Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

At 6th level you learn to encase yuourself in psionic force both for defending and offending purposes. As a bonus action, you gain temporary hp equal to your INT modifier + your current Inner Psi points. A creature damaging you with a melee attack while you have these temporary hp takes damage equal to your proficiency modifier + your current Outer Psi points.

> This feature is quite powerful to make up for the low hp level (1d6 + 1 = 1d8) this build has despite aiming to be a tank, a sort of psionic paladin (battlemind if you're familiar with older editions). Before lv 6 the compensation was the further COS modifier to hp from the Body over Mind.

\columnbreak

Very few dare to look them in the eyes, being afraid of revealing their own deepest secrets or fears.

#### Wise Master

unoccupied space that you occupied since the
start of your last turn, and the attack misses you.

#### Psionic Investigation
Starting at 6th level, you can focus your mind to
read the psionic imprint left on an object. If you
hold an object and concentrate on it for 10
minutes (as if concentrating on a psionic
Power), you learn a few basic facts about it.
You gain a mental image from the object’s point
of view, showing the last creature to hold the
object within the past 24 hours.
You also learn of any events that have
occurred within 20 feet of the object within the
past hour. The events you perceive unfold from
the object’s perspective. You see and hear such
events as if you were there, but can’t use other
senses.
Additionally, you can embed an intangible
psionic sensor within the object. For the next 24
hours, you can use an action to learn the object’s
location relative to you (its distance and
direction) and to look at the object’s
surroundings from its point of view as if you
were there. This perception lasts until the start
of your next turn.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a short or long rest.

#### Quick Meditation
At 6th level you need less time to replenish your reservoir of psionic energy. Once per long rest, while you are short resting you can enter a state of trance for half the duration of the short rest, to restore Inner Psi points equal to half you Mystic level, rounded up.

\pagebreakNum

#### Spectral Form
At 14th level, you gain the ability to become a
ghostly figure of psionic energy. As an action,
you can transform into a transparent, ghostly
version of yourself. When you do so, unburn your focus. While in this form, you have
resistance to all damage, move at half speed, and
can pass through objects and creatures while
moving but can’t willingly end your movement in
their spaces. The form lasts for 10 minutes or
until you use an action to end it.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a long rest.

### Portent
Those who are naturally gifted in the psionics and freely taps into it at their own leisure are the Portents. Lifting a weight with one hand or telekinesis are one and the same for them. They are able to use most of what is available to a Psion with little effort, sometimes doing more than one task at a time.

#### Mind Master

Moreover, you gain access to more Disciplines: choose any Discipline aside from the Awakened one. Your choice becomes your main Discipline and you learn one Power of your choice from it. You can learn one more when reaching level 5th, 9th and 15th.<br>Also choose a Power from any Discipline aside from your primary one: you can select and learn it. Choose again at 2nd, 6th, 8th and 13th level.

#### Psionic Surge
At 3rd level you can focus to make your powers stronger. When unleashing a Power, you can burn your focus to give disadvantage to one creature on saving throws made against it.

#### Psion Mastery
At 6th level your mastery of psionic energy allows you to push your mind beyond its normal limits. As a bonus action, you gain maximum Outer Psi points and for one minute you can use Outer Psi points as if they were Inner. Moreover during this minute you can keep multiple concentrations from Powers unleashed using only Outer Psi points, as long as you are not keeping other concentrations. You make saving throws for them separately.<br>You can use this feature once per long rest. At level 13th and 17th you gain one additional use per long rest.

#### Potent Psion
At 8th level you learn to infuse more energy in your basic powers. When unleashing a Power with basic cost (before Augments) of 1 or less psi points, add your INT modifier to its damage rolls.

\columnbreak

#### Dual Focus
At 14th level even your focus can be multitasked. You can now retain a maximum of two focus effects at a time, when using the bonus action you can change both and you burn them separately.

You infuse a little of your mind into a shard, giving it limited sentience. The shard rises and start floating, becoming animated. Use the Psi Shard form presented at the end of this document. The shard has hp equal to the amount of psi points spent. It has its own physical stats, but uses yours for INT, WIS and CHA. When infusing your mind into it, you leave a trace of how you're feeling, giving the shard one trait from its Temper section. Your shard acts independently of you, but it always obeys your commands. In combat, it takes its turn immediately after yours. The shard can’t attack, but it can take other actions, limited by its form and Temper. When the shard drops to 0 hit points, it crumbles to dust, leaving behind no physical form.

While the shard is within 30 feet of you, you can communicate with it telepathically. Additionally, as an action, you can see through its senses until the start of your next turn. During this time, you are deaf and blind with regard to your own senses.

You can’t have more than one Psi Shard at a time. Using this manifestation to animate another shard destroys the previous one.

As a bonus action, while the shard is within 30 feet, you can shatter it, destroying the shard, to regain inner psi points equal to its hp or the psi points last spent on this manifestation, whichever is lower.

Finally, when you unleash a Power, your shard can deliver it as if it had unleashed the Power. Your shard must be within 30 feet of you, and it must use its reaction to deliver the Power when you unleash it.

In either case, both the object and the creature or solid surface take 1d12 bludgeoning damage.

**+Empowered** *(1+ psi)*: For each psi spent increase damage by 1d12 and double the object's weight limit.

___
One creature or object of your choice that you can see within range rises vertically, up to 20 feet, and remains suspended there for the duration. This manifestation can levitate a target that weighs up to 250 pounds. An unwilling creature that succeeds on a Constitution saving throw is unaffected.

The target can move only by pushing or pulling against a fixed object or surface within reach (such as a wall or a ceiling), which allows it to move as if it were climbing. You can change the target’s altitude by up to 20 feet in either direction on your turn. If you are the target, you can move up or down as part of your move. Otherwise, you can use your action to move the target, which must remain within the spell’s range.

When the spell ends, the target floats gently to the ground if it is still aloft.

Each panel must be continguous with another panel. In any form, the wall is 1/4 inch thick. It lasts for the duration. If the wall cuts through a creature’s space when it appears, the creature is pushed to one side of the wall (your choice which side). Nothing can physically pass through the wall while it's intact. It can’t be dispelled by dispel magic. A disintegrate spell destroys the wall instantly, however. Each 10-foot section of the wall has an AC of 10 and 15 hit points.

This document was created through [GM Binder](https://www.gmbinder.com/).<br>
In particular since i s**k at markdown i used as template for the whole thing, retaining also most of the images (with the great blending effects too), the [Psion v1.2.2](https://www.gmbinder.com/share/-LZSNMgmChWNGW979hrj) made by KibblesTasty, check it out, maybe you'll find it better than this attempt of mine.<br>
Aside from coding, i also took some ideas from KiblesTasty's version, but still the main structure was the UA with the final version of the Mystic.<br>
Must-to mention also to [Yet Another Guide to Psionics](https://www.reddit.com/r/UnearthedArcana/comments/f3p17t/yet_another_guide_to_psionics_take_on_the_worlds/), which i have taken some hints and the initial flavour text from.

Thank you all for reading 'till here!
