Psionic Power

Beginning at 1st level, you harbor a wellspring of psionic energy within yourself. This energy is represented by your Psionic Energy dice, which are each a d6. You have a number of these dice equal to twice your proficiency bonus, and they fuel various psionic powers you have.

When you reach certain levels in this class, the size of your Psionic Energy dice increases: at 5th level (d8), 11th level (d10), and 17th level (d12).

Some of your powers expend the Psionic Energy die they use, as specified in a power’s description, and you can’t use a power if it requires you to use a die when your dice are all expended.

You regain all your expended Psionic Energy dice when you finish a long rest. You can use a bonus action to regain one expended Psionic Energy die, but you can’t do so again until you finish a short or long rest.

Psionic Order

At 1st level, you choose a Psionic Order: the Order of the Ascendant, the Order of the Astral Reaper, the Order of the Psychic Warrior, or the Order of the Oracle each of which is detailed at the end of the class description. Each order specializes in a specific approach to psionics.

Your order gives you features when you choose it at 1st level and additional features at 3rd, 5th, 7th, 11th, 14th and 18th level.

Psychic Blades

Starting at 2nd level, you can manifest your psionic power as shimmering blades of psychic energy. Whenever you make an attack with the Attack action, you can manifest a psychic blade from your free hand and make the attack with that blade. This magic blade is a simple melee weapon with the finesse and thrown properties. It has a normal range of 60 feet and no long range, and on a hit, it deals psychic damage equal to 1d6 plus the ability modifier you used for the attack roll. The blade vanishes immediately after it hits or misses its target, and it leaves no mark on its target if it deals damage.

After you attack with the blade, you can make a melee or ranged weapon attack with a second psychic blade as a bonus action on the same turn, provided your other hand is free to create it. The damage die of this bonus attack is 1d4, instead of 1d6.

Mind Sense

At 2nd level, as an action you can expend one Psionic Energy die and open your mind to detect the presence of another creature near you. Until the end of your next turn you know the location of any creature with an Intelligence Score of 4 or higher within 60 feet of you. You know the emotional state of any being whose presence you sense, but not their creature type or identity.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency bonus, regaining all expended uses when you complete a long rest.

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.

Psychic Precision

Starting at 6th level, you can augment the deadliness of your psychic attacks. As an action, you can expend a Psionic Energy die to gain a bonus to all attack rolls and damage rolls with your psychic blades a equal to half your Proficiency bonus (rounded down) for the next minute

For the duration, you add your Intelligence modifier to the damage you deal with any psionic cantrip.

Mind Empowers Matter

Starting at 1st level when you choose this order, your hit point maximum increases by 1, and increases by 1 again whenever you gain a level in this class.

Additionally, when you aren’t wearing armor or wielding a shield, your AC equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier plus your Intelligence modifier.

Thought Strike

At 3rd level, as an action you can expend one Psionic Energy die to assault the mind of another creature within 15 feet of you that you can see. Roll the die, the creature must succeed an Intelligence saving throw against your Psionic save DC or suffer psychic damage equal to the result of the roll plus your psionic level, and become unable to speak or concentrate until the end of its next turn.

Extra Attack

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

Psionic Lightning

Starting at 7th level, as an action you expend up to three Psionic Energy dice to cause a stroke of lightning forming a line 30 feet long and 5 feet wide to burst out from you in a direction of your choice. Roll the dice, each creature in the line must make a Dexterity saving throw against your Psionic save DC, taking lightning damage equal to the result of the rolls plus your Intelligence modifier on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Improved Psychic Blades

Beginning at 11th level, you are so suffused with psionic power that your melee weapon strikes carry psychic power with them. Whenever you hit a creature with one of your Psychic Blades, the creature takes additional psychic damage equal to your Psionic Energy die. A creature can only take this extra damage once per turn.

Lightning Vault

Starting at 14th level, when you use your Psionic Lightning feature you can use a bonus action to immediately teleport to an unoccupied space touched by the line.

Psychic Onslaught

Beginning at 18th level, as an action you can charge forward up to 120 feet in a straight line damaging every creature in your path. Each creature in your path must make a Dexterity saving throw against your Psionic save DC, taking 10d10 psychic damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Once you use this feature, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend three Psionic Energy dice to use this feature again.

Cloaked in Darkness

Starting at 1st level when you choose this order, you can use your action to expend and roll one Psionic Energy die to become invisible while in areas of darkness or dim light. You remain invisible for a number of minutes equal to the result of the roll, or until you make an attack, cast a spell, or enter an area of bright light.

Astral Slash

Starting at 3rd level, you can use your action to expend one Psionic Energy die and make a melee weapon attack with your Psychic Blades feature against each creature of your choice within 5 feet of you, making a separate attack roll against each creature. The Psychic Blade doesn't vanish until you hit or miss against the last chosen creature.

Psychic Scythe

By 5th level, you've gained mastery over the Psychic Scythe to inflict terror in those you hunt. A Psychic Scythe is a Psychic Blade with the two-handed property and without the thrown property. It deals 1d12 psychic damage on a hit.

If you attack with your Psychic Scythe as part of the Attack action on your turn, you can use a bonus action immediately after to make a melee attack with it. This attack deals 1d4 psychic damage on a hit, instead of 1d12.

In addition, if you score a critical hit with it against a creature’s astral body, you can cut the silvery cord that tethers the target to its material body, instead of dealing damage.

You can only use this feature once per turn.

Entangled Portal

At 14th level, if on your current turn you used your Astral Step feature to teleport to another space, you can use your reaction to teleport back to your previous space before your turn ends.

Astral Prison

Starting at 18th level, you gain the ability to imprison your enemies in the astral plane.

As an action, you can create a 10-foot-diameter sphere within 10 feet of yourself on a point that you can see. Each creature enveloped by the sphere must make a Charisma saving throw against your Psionic save DC or be temporarily imprisoned into a demiplane of your creation on the astral plane.

While there, a creature becomes petrified and heavily obscured. Divination spells can't locate or perceive the target. The target remains there until the effect ends, at which point the target reappears in the space it left or in the nearest unoccupied space if that space is occupied.

The effect lasts for 1 minute or until you lose concentration (as if concentrating on a spell). On a successful save a creature is unaffected.

Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you complete a long rest, unless you expend three Psionic Energy dice to use it again.

Cantrips

You know two cantrips of your choice from the Psionic Spell list. You learn additional psionic cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Oracle Spell table.

Preparing Spells of 1st Level or Higher

You prepare the list of psionic spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the Psionic Spell list. When you do so, choose a number of psionic spells equal to your Intelligence modifier + your psionic level (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level equal to or lower than the maximum level of a spell you can cast as shown in the Max Spell Level column of the Oracle Spell Table.

You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of psionic spells requires time spent in meditation: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list.

Casting Psionic Spells

You can cast a psionic spell of 1st level or higher by expending a number of Psionic Energy dice equal to the level of the spell, divided by 3 (rounded up), up to a maximum spell level as shown in the Oracle Spell table.

You can cast up to three spells each of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th level, and one spell each of 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th level.

When you cast any spell of 1st level or higher from the Psionic Spells list using your Psionic Spellcasting feature, it requires no verbal or somatic components, and it requires no material components, unless they are consumed by the spell.

Spellcasting Ability

Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your psionic spells, since the power of your magic relies on your ability to project your intellect into the world. You use your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a psionic spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier

Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier

Spellcasting Focus

You can use an arcane focus (see the Adventuring Gear section) as a spellcasting focus for your psionic spells.
