Incarnate
A look of panic in his eyes, the self-exiled human clothed in rags runs as fast as he can away from a scene of smoldering devastation. He let his guard down, let one too many insults from mocking eyes get to him, and destruction was the consequence of his lapse in focus.
Deep underground, in the lowest reaches of the Underdark, bright eyes glow amid a gathering of prostrated drow. Their heads are bowed in fear and respect towards the manifestation of ancient power, whose wrath could be unleashed at the barest slight.
As a rogue and riled frost giant approaches the gates of her town, the elf closes her eyes and inhales deeply. She would defend the life she built here, even if it meant she would owe the innkeeper a new roof.
The soul of an incarnate is inextricably linked with that of an ancient primordial force. Some may learn to harness its power, but for many, it is an incredible burden. Incarnates are often hunted and executed. Fear, however, is a powerful trigger, and should the primordial within them manifest more acutely, entire cities could be laid to waste in their efforts to escape with their life.
Souls Bound to Primordial Beings
Long before all known history, when the crust of the world was still molten, the first beings, Primordials, arose from the chaos of creation. Somewhere between gods and mortals, these were the first living creatures. Precursors to modern day life, they stood, titanic against the backdrop of the newborn forests and mountains that they roamed. Still, eons later, they live. Buried somewhere in slumber, in a location few know of, and even fewer dare to venture.
The will of a primordial is vast and inscrutable, much like that of the gods. Very rarely, the subconscious of one of these great titans reaches out through the weave, and takes hold of a mortal's soul the moment it comes into existence. This event binds the two souls together. An incarnate, two beings sharing one body, is the result.
Outcasts from Birth
The link between a mortal and a primordial is a source of great power, often too great. If an incarnate's constitution is weak, the primordial soul inside it will take control, morphing its body to the Primordial's likeness and wreaking havoc on whatever it pleases. Not all the Primordial's are so destructive, but all demand the respect deserved to them as the first. These destructive outbursts often lead to the incarnate's execution or exile, as their peers now see a monster where once they saw a friend or family member.
Those incarnates lucky enough to avoid being beheaded outright often spend the rest of their lives on the run. Aware of the devastation that lays inside them, floating just beneath the surface, they never stay tied down for too long, and often live in poverty. The burden of knowing what lurks within hampers every aspect of their lives, but the will of those incarnates who live long enough to see this life style is stronger than even the toughest soldiers. It is their will that pushes them forward from one day to the next.
Creating an Incarnate
When creating an incarnate, try to choose ahead of time which primordial your soul is linked to. The nature of your primordial will shape the behavior of your incarnate.
Once this is done, think about your characters motivations. How does your character view the primordial inside it: as a force of terrible destruction or untapped potential? Does your character feel they are cursed, or do they perhaps feel blessed that they were chosen as the conduit of a greater being? Has your character lived a life on the run, or did they manage to settle down somewhere, feeling they have firm control of their own body? Has your character contemplated the nature of their combined souls, or do they take their life as an incarnate one day at a time? Are they perhaps barely even aware of their nature?
Quick Build
You can make an incarnate quickly by following these suggestions. First, put your highest ability score in Constitution, followed by Strength. Second, choose the hunted or urchin background.

- (a) A light crossbow and 20 bolts or (b) any simple weapon
- (a) A shield or (b) any simple weapon
- (a) An explorer’s pack or (b) an dungeoneer's pack
- Two daggers
Primordial Energy
Starting at 1st level, you learn to channel the overwhelming force of your primordial, represented by your Primordial die, a d6. This die changes as you gain incarnate levels, as shown in the Primordial Die column of the Incarnate table. You can store a number of these dice equal to twice your proficiency bonus. They do not disappear when you finish a rest.
While the number of Primordial dice you have stored exceeds your proficiency bonus, the strain of holding that energy inside your body causes you to have disadvantage on all ability checks and saving throws.
You gain the following primordial energy features:
Generate. As an action, you can gain one Primordial die. If the number of Primordial dice you have stored is less than half your proficiency bonus (rounded down) and you have not gained one this turn, you can use this feature as a bonus action.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a short or long rest.
Empower. As a bonus action, you can expend and roll any number of Primordial dice to gain temporary hit points equal to the highest number rolled + the number of dice expended. For each die expended beyond the first, you may cause a creature you can see within 60 feet of you to gain half as many temporary hit points, rounded down. At 5th level, a creature gains the same amount as you.
Primordial Constitution
Beginning at 1st level, while you are not wearing any armor, your AC equals 13 + your Constitution modifier. You can use a shield and still gain this benefit.
Mutations
The primordial soul inside you has permanently altered your form, as you embrace its power. At 2nd level, you gain two mutations of your choice. Your mutation options are detailed at the end of the class description. When you gain certain incarnate levels, you gain additional mutations of your choice, as shown in the Mutations column of the Incarnate table.
Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the mutations you have and replace it with another mutation that you could gain at that level.
If a mutation has prerequisites, you must meet them to gain it. You can gain the mutation at the same time that you meet its prerequisites. A level prerequisite refers to your level in this class.
Some of this class's features and mutations will require you to make an attack roll or a target to make a saving throw to resist the feature’s effects. The attack modifier and saving throw DC is calculated as follows:
Primordial save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +
your Constitution modifier.
Primordial attack modifier = your proficiency bonus +
your Constitution modifier.
Titanus Form
At 3rd level, you manifest the form of your primordial. As a bonus action, you can enter your titanus form. While in your titanus form, your size becomes large. You can choose to increase your size further when you reach certain levels in this class, to huge at 11th level and gargantuan at 17th level.
You cannot increase your size to the point where you would be required to squeeze in the space you currently occupy, and you cannot transform at all if you cannot become large without squeezing.
Several of this class's features are affected by your size. This is represented by your size modifier, which is calculated as follows:
Size modifier = +1 for each size you are above medium.
When you enter your titanus form, you gain a number of Primordial dice equal to your size modifier, and you roll your Primordial die a number of times equal to your size modifier. You gain temporary hit points equal to the total rolled plus twice your incarnate level. They vanish if any of them are left when your titanus form ends.
Any gear you have merges into your new form, becoming unusable until your titanus form ends (static effects from attuned items, such as bracers of defense, still apply unless you are required to wield them for the effect). While in your titanus form, you can't use shields or weapons, other than those granted by features from this class.
If you are able to cast spells, you can’t cast them or concentrate on them while in your titanus form, unless it is a spell granted by your titanus form or a mutation.
While in your titanus form you gain the following benefits:
- You gain a number of Primordial dice at the start of each of your turns equal to your size modifier.
- You gain a bonus to Strength and Constitution checks and saving throws equal to your Primordial die.
- Your reach with melee weapons becomes 5 feet times your size modifier.
- You have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.
- Your speed increases by 5 feet times your size modifier.
- You have darkvision out to 120 feet.
- If your size is gargantuan, you deal double damage to objects and structures.
Your titanus form lasts for 1 minute. It ends early if you are knocked unconscious.
The number of times you can enter your titanus form is listed in the incarnate table under the Titanus Uses column. You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Primordial Soul
Also at 3rd level, the true identity of your primordial is revealed to you. Choose one of the Primordial Souls listed at the end of the class description. Your titanus form takes on the likeness of your Primordial Soul. Your choice grants you features at 3rd level, and again at 6th, 10th, and 14th levels.
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.
Extra Attack
Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.
Superiority
Starting at 6th level, while in your titanus form, you gain a +1 bonus to your AC, and any damage dealt by you while in your titanus form or with a weapon granted by a mutation counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to non-magical attacks and damage.
Bow to None
Beginning at 7th level, you have advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened, and while in your titanus form, you can’t be charmed or frightened. If you are charmed or frightened when you enter your titanus form, the effects causing those conditions end for you.
Let Them Fight
Starting at 9th level, your primordial’s innate sense of superiority takes over when challenged. Once on each of your turns while in your titanus form, when you make an attack roll against a large or larger creature, or force any number of creatures to make a saving throw, you can expend one Primordial die to either gain advantage on the attack roll, or cause the saving throw to be made at disadvantage for one target that is large or larger.
Additionally, while in your titanus form, any attack rolls you make against a large or larger creature score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20.
Primordial Passage
At 11th level, you learn to traverse the world as the Primordials once did. You are always aware of the distance and direction to the Underdark (or its equivalent) entry point closest to you, and can travel through the Underdark with up to six other creatures at a fast pace with no penalty to passive Perception.
In addition, you can sense the general direction of any huge or larger creatures within 5 miles of you.
Eminence
Starting at 13th level, your presence demands an answer. When you enter your titanus form, each hostile creature that can see you and is smaller than you must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw against your Primordial save DC or have disadvantage on the next attack roll they make before the end of your next turn.
Triumph
Also at 13th level, when you drop a hostile creature your size or larger to 0 hit points while in your titanus form, you can expend one Primordial die to roar. Each hostile creature within 120 feet of you that can hear and is your size or smaller must make a Wisdom saving throw against your Primordial save DC. On a failed save, a target is both deafened and frightened by you until the start of your next turn.
Energized Biology
At 15th level, primordial energy suffuses you. While in combat and in your normal form, you can use a d8 in place of expending a Primordial die for any of your features. You can do so even if you have no Primordial dice stored. If you would expend multiple Primordial dice at once, you can only replace one die this way. Once you replace a Primordial die this way, you can’t do so again until the start of your next turn.
In addition, you no longer have disadvantage on saving throws while the number of Primordial dice you have stored exceeds your proficiency bonus. You still have disadvantage on ability checks.
Older than Death
Starting at 17th level, your primordial power lets you shrug off death. At the start of your turn while in your titanus form, you may gain temporary hit points equal to 1 roll of your Primordial die. You also gain the following benefits:
- You are immune to disease, and you age 1 year for every 10 years that pass.
- You add your Constitution modifier to death saving throws.
- When you roll a 19 or 20 on the d20 for a death saving throw, you regain hit points equal to your Constitution score.
Reflection
At 18th level, your primordial has begun to resonate with your will. Your Constitution score and your maximum for that score each increase by 2.
Also, when you roll for initiative, you may choose to gain one Primordial die.
Acceptance
When you reach 20th level, the primordial spirit you share your soul with has acknowledged your strength, and you have learned to channel its will without struggle. You can enter your titanus form without requiring or expending a use, so long as you become large. When you do, the Primordial Energy dice you gain at the start of your turn are temporary and disappear when that form ends.
When you reach 20th level, you have become a true avatar of your primordial. As an action, you can draw power from your primordial, gaining six Primordial dice. Once you use this action, you must finish a long rest before you can do so again.
In addition, you can store any number of Primordial dice without suffering disadvantage on ability checks.
Optional Rule: Multiclassing
If you use the optional multiclassing rule in the Player's Handbook, here's what you need to know if you choose incarnate as one of your classes.
- Ability Score Minimum. As a multiclass character you must have at least a Constitution score of 13 to take a level in this class, or to take a level in another class if you already are an Incarnate.
- Proficiencies Gained. If incarnate is not your initial class, you only gain proficiency with simple weapons.
Primordial Souls
Each primordial is a precursor to the modern creatures we know today. Their individual abilities shape how a competent incarnate is able to survive and thrive, on the battlefield and in their lives. The more powerful an incarnate, the more abilities of their primordial they are able to channel, and the closer their titanus form comes to the true form of their primordial.
Soul of the Aberration
The Primordial Aberration is a fearsome and prideful thing from beyond the material plane. It struck down its rivals by terraforming the battlefield with aberrant crystalline structures that emit psychic energy to hamper enemies.
Primordial Aberration Form
3rd-level Soul of the Aberration feature
Your titanus form takes on the likeness of a massive aberrant creature with giant crystals protruding from its body. You gain access to the following natural weapon while in your titanus form. It counts as a simple melee weapon for you, and you add your Strength modifier to the attack and damage rolls when you attack with it, as normal.
Tail. Has the reach property. You stab a creature in reach with your crystal-tipped tail. On a hit, the target takes 1d12 piercing damage, and you can expend one Primordial die. If you do, the target must make a Strength saving throw against your Primordial save DC. On a failed save, the target takes piercing damage equal to the expended die, is thrown a number of feet away from you equal to 10 times your size modifier, and is knocked prone.
In addition, while in your titanus form, you gain the following features:
Shield. You can expend one Primordial die to cast the shield spell, without using a spell slot or any components. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Primordial Aberration Breath. You can exhale homing arcs of primordial energy. As an action, you can expend up to three Primordial dice, creating one energy arc for each die expended. Each arc hits a creature of your choice that you can see within 120 feet of you. An arc deals force damage equal to your Primordial die + your Constitution modifier to its target. The arcs all strike simultaneously, and you can direct them to hit one creature or several.
Giant Crystals
3rd-level Soul of the Aberration feature
When you enter your titanus form, choose a point on the ground that you can see within 150 feet of you. Giant crystals erupt at that point for as long as you maintain concentration, as if concentrating on a spell, filling a circle on the ground with a radius of 20 feet times your size modifier. The affected area of your giants crystals is difficult terrain for hostile creatures, and any hostile creatures inside the affected area when the crystals appear must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw against your Primordial save DC or take piercing damage equal to 1 roll of your Primordial die.
The giant crystals bolster your primordial power. When you expend one or more Primordial dice while in the affected area of your giant crystals, roll a d20. You gain one Primordial die on a roll of 16-19, or two on a roll of 20. The giant crystals dissipate when your titanus form ends.
Additionally, while in your titanus form, you gain the following features:
Place Crystals. As an action, you can expend three Primordial dice to place your giant crystals on the battlefield at a point on the ground you can see within 150 feet of you. Any previous giant crystals dissipate when the new ones form.
Psychic Interruptions. As a bonus action, you can expend one Primordial die to force any hostile creatures in the affected area of your giant crystals to make an Intelligence saving throw against your Primordial save DC. On a failed save, a creature takes psychic damage equal to 1 roll of your Primordial die, and until the beginning of your next turn, it subtracts your Primordial die from every attack roll and saving throw it makes. On a success, a creature is immune to this effect for 24 hours.
Psionic Flight
6th-level Soul of the Aberration feature
The Aberration can hold itself aloft with its aberrant power. While in your titanus form, you gain a flying speed equal to your half your walking speed, and you can hover.
Additionally, you can telepathically speak to any creature you can see within 30 feet of you while in your normal form, or 90 feet of you while in your titanus form. 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. If the creature does share a language with you, it can respond telepathically to you, if you allow it.
Primordial Psionics
10th-level Soul of the Aberration feature
You have learned to channel more power from the Aberration's eldritch mind. As an action, you can expend three Primordial dice to cast the telekinesis spell, without using a spell slot or any components. Constitution is your spellcasting ability for it. Once you cast the spell this way, you must finish a short or long rest before you can do so again.
Aberrant Invasion
14th-level Soul of the Aberration feature
The immense psychic power of the Primordial Aberration is yours to unleash. As a bonus action, you can expend two uses of Titanus Form and 10 Primordial dice to enter your titanus form overloaded with primordial power. When you do, the radius of your giant crystals is doubled.
While in your overloaded titanus form, you gain a Primordial die on a roll of 10-19, instead of 15-19, when you expend one or more while in the affected area of your giant crystals. Additionally, you can expend up to four Primordial dice for your Primordial Aberration Breath, creating up to 4 arcs of energy.
Soul of the Beast
The Primordial Beast is said to be the progenitor of all the natural animals that came after it. Regardless of the truth of this rumor, it is certainly nature's greatest protector. It wakes from its slumber to maintain balance among the Primordials as needed.
Primordial Beast Form
3rd-level Soul of the Beast feature
Your titanus form takes on the likeness of a massive reptilian beast. You gain access to the following natural weapons while in your titanus form. They count as simple melee weapons for you, and you add your Strength modifier to the attack and damage rolls when you attack with them, as normal.
Bite. You bite a creature within reach. On a hit, the target takes 1d12 piercing damage, and you can expend one Primordial die. If you do, add the expended die to the damage roll, and if the target is no more than one size larger than you, it must succeed on a Strength saving throw against your Primordial save DC or become grappled by you. You cannot attack with your bite while a target is grappled this way.
Claw. You slash a creature in reach. On a hit, the target takes 2d6 slashing damage, and you can expend one Primordial die. If you do, you can use your bonus action this turn to make another claw attack against the same creature.
Tail. Has the reach property. You smash a creature in reach with your tail. On a hit, the target takes 3d4 bludgeoning damage, and you can expend one Primordial die. If you do, the target must succeed on a Strength saving throw against your Primordial save DC or take bludgeoning damage equal to the expended die and be knocked prone.
In addition, while in your titanus form, you gain the following feature:
Primordial Beast Breath. You exhale a blast of raw life energy. As an action, you can expend any number of Primordial dice up to your proficiency bonus to make a ranged spell attack using your Primordial attack modifier against a creature within 100 feet times your size modifier of you. On a hit, the target takes force damage equal to the expended dice + your Constitution modifier. For every die expended beyond the first, the target takes additional damage equal to your Constitution modifier, and is pushed back 5 feet times your size modifier.
If the target collides with a creature or solid object, both it and the object or creature take bludgeoning damage as if they had fallen the number of feet the target was pushed.
Master of Land and Sea
6th-level Soul of the Beast feature
The Beast holds the reins to everything under the sky. You gain a swimming speed equal to your walking speed and can breathe underwater.
Additionally, while in your titanus form, you gain tremorsense out to a range of 60 feet, meaning you can detect and pinpoint the origin of vibrations within a specific radius, provided that the you and the source of the vibrations are in contact with the same ground or substance.
King’s Triumph
10th-level Soul of the Beast feature
The Beast refuses to back down. As a bonus action, you can look one of your enemies in the face and challenge them with a roar. Choose a creature you can see within 150 feet of you, or 300 feet while in your titanus form. If the target can hear you, it must make a Wisdom saving throw against your Primordial save DC. On a failed save, a target smaller than you is frightened by you, while a target your size or larger has disadvantage on attack rolls against creatures other than you. This effect lasts for 1 minute, and creatures immune to being charmed or frightened automatically succeed on the saving throw.
At the end of each of its turns, the target can repeat the save, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a target’s saving throw is successful or the effect ends for it, the target is immune to your King’s Triumph for the next 24 hours. You cannot use this feature while another creature is under its effects.
When you reach 13th level, if you drop a large or larger creature under the effects of this feature to 0 hit points, you can use your Triumph feature without expending a Primordial die.
Long Live the King
14th-level Soul of the Beast feature
The Beast rages with the cataclysmic force of nature itself. As a bonus action, you can expend two uses of Titanus Form and 10 Primordial dice to enter your titanus form overloaded with primordial power. When you do, you gain three Primordial dice, and this titanus form lasts for only 30 seconds instead of 60 seconds.
While in your overloaded titanus form, you gain one additional Primordial die at the start of each of your turns, and each creature that starts its turn within 30 feet of you takes fire damage equal to your proficiency bonus from the intense heat radiating off of your molten scales.
In addition, while in your overloaded titanus form, you gain the following feature:
Primordial Meltdown. As an action, you can expend any number of Primordial dice up to your Constitution modifier. Each creature excluding you in a sphere with a radius of 20 feet times your size modifier, centered on you, must make a Constitution saving throw against your Primordial save DC, taking force damage equal to the expended dice plus your Constitution modifier on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. If 5 or more dice were expended, a creature that fails the save is stunned until the beginning of your next turn.
Soul of the Celestial
Even among the celestial creatures of the upper planes, there exists a primordial being that predates all but the oldest gods. This primordial looks fondly upon mortals, and represents their natural and continuous cycle of life and death.
Primordial Celestial Form
3rd-level Soul of the Celestial feature
Your titanus form takes on the likeness of a giant insect. You gain access to the following natural weapons while in your titanus form. They count as simple weapons for you, and you add the relevant modifier to the attack and damage rolls when you attack with them, as normal.
Raptorial Limbs. Melee weapon, has the finesse and light properties. You slash a creature in reach with scythe-like limbs. On a hit, the target takes 1d6 slashing damage. Once on each of your turns, you can expend one Primordial die to deal additional radiant damage to the target equal to 2 rolls of your Primordial die.
Stinger. Melee weapon, has the finesse property. You stab a creature in reach with a large stinger. On a hit, the target takes 1d12 piercing damage. When you score a critical hit with this weapon or roll a 12 on one of the damage dice, you can expend one Primordial die to add it to the damage roll (before doubling dice from a critical hit), and the target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw against your Primordial save DC or become stunned until the start of your next turn.
Web. Ranged weapon, 30/60 feet, has the ammunition property. You fire a sticky glob of webbing at a creature in range. On a hit, the target is restrained, and you can expend one Primordial die to automatically hit another creature within 5 feet of it with this attack, without expending ammunition. A restrained creature can use its action to make a Strength check against your Primordial save DC, bursting the webbing on a success. The webbing can also be attacked. It has an AC of 10 + your size modifier, and hit points equal to your your incarnate level. The webbing is vulnerable to fire damage, and immune to bludgeoning, poison, and psychic damage. You gain an amount of ammunition for this weapon equal to your Constitution modifier when you enter your titanus form, and it disappears when your titanus form ends.
In addition, while in your titanus form, you gain the following feature:
Celestial Healing. You fill your eyes with healing energy. As a bonus action, you can expend any number of Primordial dice up to your proficiency bonus to choose a creature you can see within 60 feet of you. That creature regains hit points equal to 1 roll of your Primordial die + your proficiency bonus for each die expended.
Divine Prominence
6th-level Soul of the Celestial feature
Your titanus form has evolved enormous moth-like wings. While in your titanus form, you gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed.
Additionally, you can speak telepathically with other creatures you can see within 60 feet of you while in your normal form, or 120 feet while in your titanus form, and those creatures can respond telepathically to you, if you allow it. To understand each other, you each must speak mentally in a language the other knows.
God Rays
10th-level Soul of the Celestial feature
You can make your body glow bright with divine radiance. As an action, you can expend three Primordial dice to force each hostile creature in a sphere with a radius of 20 feet times your size modifier, centered on you, to make a Constitution saving throw against your Primordial save DC. On a failed save, a target is blinded for one minute. At the end of each of its turns, a blinded target can repeat the save, ending the effect on itself on a success. If a target’s saving throw is successful, the target is immune to your God Rays for the next 24 hours.
In addition, each creature you choose within the area of effect is cured of one condition afflicting them, unless it is being actively inflicted from a physical source (ie, this effect cannot remove a target from a grapple or a spider’s webbing).
Primordial Reincarnation
14th-level Soul of the Celestial feature
The Celestial represents the cycle of life and death. When you enter your titanus form with 10 Primordial dice stored, you can expend an extra use of Titanus Form to attune yourself to the upper planes. You must become at least huge to enter this attuned titanus form, and it lasts 10 minutes, during which your speed drops to 0 while you lay an egg at your current location. The egg is an object of medium size with hit points equal to 5 times your incarnate level, an AC of 20, resistance to all damage types, and immunity to psychic damage. You are always aware of the current status of the egg, and while it is intact, you cannot use this feature.
When you die, if you were not killed by an effect that specifically states the only way you can be revived, and the egg is still intact, your soul returns the egg, bolstering your companions before doing so. Choose any number of creatures within 300 feet of where you died. Each of those creatures regains hit points equal to twice your incarnate level, gains temporary hit points equal to your incarnate level, and has advantage on all ability checks, attack rolls, and saving throws they make for one minute.
You emerge from the egg 3d4 days later. Each dawn, you can make a DC 15 Constitution check to reduce the remaining days by 1, emerging on a success if the days remaining drop to 0. Once, after you emerge, you may cast teleport on yourself within the next 10 days, choosing your previous body as the location, which counts as an associated object as defined in the spell's description.
Soul of the Construct
The plane of Mechanus is home to many contructs, and one could argue about the existence of a soul in such creatures, but whatever it is, the energy of the Primordial Construct persists. It sleeps still, somewhere on Mechanus, waiting.
Primordial Construct Form

A half use this feature, splitting its hit points and temporary hit points between the new halves.

In combat, you control your assimilations. They share your initiative, and take their turns immediately after yours. When an assimilation dies, its body turns to dust.
As an action, you can touch an assimilation and cause it to either go dormant, entering a state of suspended animation, or reactivate it from its dormant state. You can only have one active assimilation at a time, but you may have any number of dormant assimilations. Creating a new assimilation automatically makes your currently active assimilation dormant. You can still perceive through a dormant assimilation's senses.
If you would die, you can sacrifice one of your active assimilations within 120 feet of you, killing it instantly. You then regain hit points equal to the hit points the assimilation had before it died. Once you do so, you can't again until you finish a long rest.
