When the mystic class was released there was a general consensus that it was way too strong, so thisunofficial update to the mystic is here to let you add mystics to your campaign without making your DM or your party mad at you. This has been changed from the the <a href="https://media.wizards.com/2017/dnd/downloads/UAMystic3.pdf"> Unearthed Arcana: The Mystic class </a> I encourage you to look there.
 
### Creating a Mystic

When creating a mystic, consider your character’s
background. How did you become a mystic? What
first drew you to this practice? Are you self-taught,
or did you have a master? If you had a master,
what is that relationship like?
Consider also why you returned to the world
from your hermitage. Did you leave someone or
something behind when you took up your studies?
Are you driven by revenge or some other
motivation?
#### Quick Build
You can make a mystic quickly by following these
suggestions. First, make Intelligence your highest
ability score, followed by Dexterity or Constitution.
Second, choose the hermit background.

## Class Features
As a mystic, you gain the following class features.

#### Hit Points
___
- **Hit Dice:** 1d8 per mystic level
- **Hit Points at 1st Level:** 8 + your Constitution modifier
- **Hit Points at Higher Levels:** 1d8 (or 5) + your
Constitution modifier per mystic level after 1st

\pagebreakNum

#### Proficiencies
___
- **Armor:** Light armor
- **Weapons:** Simple weapons
- **Tools:** None

___

- **Saving Throws:** Intelligence, Wisdom
- **Skills**: Choose two skills from Arcana, History, Insight, Medicine, Nature, Perception, and Religion

#### Equipment
You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background:
- (a) a spear or (b) any simple weapon
- (a) leather armor or (b) studded leather armor
- (a) a light crossbow and 20 bolts or (b) any
simple weapon
- (a) a scholar’s pack or (b) an explorer’s pack

Alternatively, you can ignore the equipment here
and in your background, and buy 5d4 × 10 gp
worth of equipment from chapter 5 in the Player’s
Handbook.

### Psionics
As a student of psionics, you can master and use
psionic talents and disciplines, the rules for
which appear at the end of this document.
Psionics is a special form of magic use, distinct
from spellcasting.
#### Psionic Talents
A psionic talent is a minor psionic effect you
have mastered. At 1st level, you know one
psionic talent of your choice. You learn
additional talents of your choice at higher levels.
The Talents Known column of the Mystic table
shows the total number of talents you know at
each level; when that number goes up for you,
choose a new talent.
#### Psionic Disciplines
A psionic discipline is a rigid set of mental
exercises that allows a mystic to manifest psionic
power. A mystic masters only a few disciplines at
a time.
At 1st level, you know one psionic discipline of
your choice. The Disciplines Known column of
the Mystic table shows the total number of
disciplines you know at each level; when that
number goes up for you, choose a new discipline.
In addition, whenever you gain a level in this
class, you can replace one discipline you know
with a different one of your choice.
#### Psi Points
You have an internal reservoir of energy that can
be devoted to psionic disciplines you know. This
energy is represented by psi points. Each psionic
discipline describes effects you can create with it
by spending a certain number of psi points. A
psionic talent requires no psi points.
The number of psi points you have is based on
your mystic level, as shown in the Psi Points
column of the Mystic table. The number shown
for your level is your psi point maximum. Your
psi point total returns to its maximum when you
finish a long rest. The number of psi points you
have can’t go below 0 or over your maximum.

\columnbreak

#### Psi Limit
Though you have access to a potent amount of
psionic energy, it takes training and practice to
channel that energy. There is a limit on the
number of psi points you can spend to activate a
psionic discipline. The limit is based on your
mystic level, as shown in the Psi Limit column of
the Mystic table. For example, as a 3rd-level
mystic, you can spend no more than 3 psi points
on a discipline each time you use it, no matter
how many psi points you have.

#### Psychic Focus
You can focus psionic energy on one of your
psionic disciplines to draw ongoing benefits
from it. As a bonus action, you can choose one of
your psionic disciplines and gain its psychic
focus benefit, which is detailed in that
discipline’s description. The benefit lasts until
you are incapacitated or until you use another
bonus action to choose a different focus benefit.
You can have only one psychic focus benefit at
a time, and using the psychic focus of one
discipline doesn’t limit your ability to use other
disciplines.
You can use this ability a number of times equal to your intelligence modifier (minimum one) per short rest.

#### Psionic Ability
Intelligence is your psionic ability for your
psionic disciplines. You use your Intelligence
modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a
psionic discipline or when making an attack roll
with one.
 
 
**Discipline save** DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your
Intelligence modifier
 
 
**Discipline attack modifier** = your proficiency bonus +
your Intelligence modifier

### Mystic Order
At 1st level, you choose a Mystic Order: the
Order of the Avatar, the Order of the Awakened,
the Order of the Immortal, the Order of the
Nomad, the Order of the Soul Knife, or the Order
of the Wu Jen, 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, 6th, and 14th level.

### Mystical Recovery
Starting at 2nd level, you can draw vigor from
the psi energy you use to power your psionic
disciplines.
Immediately after you spend psi points on a
psionic discipline, you can take a bonus action to
regain hit points equal to the number of psi
points you spent

### Telepathy
At 2nd level, your mind awakens to the ability to
communicate via telepathy. You can
telepathically speak to any creature you can see
within 120 feet of you in this manner. You don’t
need to share a language with the creature for it
to understand your telepathic messages, but the
creature must be able to understand at least one
language or be telepathic itself.

\pagebreakNum

### 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.

### Strength of Mind
Even the simplest psionic technique requires a
deep understanding of how psionic energy can
augment mind and body. This understanding
allows you to alter your defenses to better deal
with threats.
Starting at 5th level, you can replace your
proficiency in Wisdom saving throws whenever
you finish a short or long rest. To do so, choose
Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, or Charisma.
You gain proficiency in saves using that ability,
instead of Wisdom. This change lasts until you
finish your next short or long rest.

### Potent Psionics
At 8th level, you gain the ability to infuse your
weapon attacks with psychic energy. Once on
each of your turns when you hit a creature with
a weapon, you can deal an extra 1d8 psychic
damage to that target. When you reach 14th
level, this extra damage increases to 2d8.
In addition, you add your Intelligence modifier
to any damage roll you make for a psionic talent.

### Consumptive Power
At 10th level, you gain the ability to sacrifice
your physical durability in exchange for psionic
power. When activating a psionic discipline, you
can pay its psi point cost with your hit points,
instead of using any psi points. Your current hit
points and hit point maximum are both reduced
by the number of hit points you spend. This
reduction can’t be lessened in any way, and the
reduction to your hit point maximum lasts until
you finish a long rest.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a long rest.

### Psionic Mastery
Beginning at 11th level, your mastery of psionic
energy allows you to push your mind beyond its
normal limits. As an action, you gain 9 mastery
points that can be spent like psi points on disciplines
that require an action or a bonus action to use.
You can use all 9 points on one discipline, or you
can spread them across multiple disciplines. You
can’t also spend both psi points and mastery points 
on the same discipline. When you finish a long
rest, you lose any mastery points that you
haven’t spent.
If more than one of the disciplines you activate
with mastery points require concentration, you can
concentrate on all of them. Activating one of
them ends any effect you were already
concentrating on, and if you begin concentrating
on an effect that doesn’t use these mastery points,
the disciplines that you’re concentrating on end.
 
 
At 15th level, the pool of psi points you gain
from this feature increases to 11.
You have one use of this feature, and you
regain any expended use of it with a long rest.
You gain one additional use of this feature at
13th, 15th, and 17th level.

\columnbreak

### 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:
• You gain resistance to bludgeoning, piercing,
and slashing damage.
• 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.

## Mystic Orders
Psionics is a mysterious form of power within
most D&D worlds. Secretive orders study its
origins and applications, while pushing the
boundaries of what psionic power can achieve.
Each of these orders pursues a specific goal for
psionic power. That goal shapes how the
members of an order understand psionics.

### Order of the Avatar
Mystics of the Order of the Avatar delve into the
world of emotion, mastering their inner life to
such an extent that they can manipulate and
amplify the emotions of others with the same
ease that an artist shapes clay. Known as
Avatars, these mystics vary from tyrants to
inspiring leaders who are loved by their
followers.
Avatars can bring out extreme emotions in the
people around them. For their allies, they can
lend hope, ferocity, and courage, transforming a
fighting band into a deadly, unified force. For
their enemies, they bring fear, disgust, and
trepidation that can make even the most
hardened veteran act like a shaky rookie.
#### Bonus Disciplines
At 1st level, you learn two additional psionic
disciplines of your choice. They must be chosen
from among the Avatar disciplines.
#### Armor Training
At 1st level, you gain proficiency with medium
armor and shields.
#### Avatar of Battle
Starting at 3rd level, you project an inspiring
aura. While you aren’t incapacitated, each ally
within 30 feet of you who can see you gains a +2
bonus to initiative rolls.
#### Avatar of Healing
Beginning at 6th level, you project an aura of
resilience. While you aren’t incapacitated, each
ally within 30 feet of you who can see you
regains additional hit points equal to your
Intelligence modifier (minimum of 0) whenever
they regain hit points from a psionic discipline.
#### Avatar of Speed
Starting at 14th level, you project an aura of
speed. While you aren’t incapacitated, any ally
within 30 feet of you who can see you can take
the Dash action as a bonus action.

\pagebreakNum

### Order of the Awakened
Mystics dedicated to the Order of the Awakened
seek to unlock the full potential of the mind. By
transcending the physical, the Awakened hope to
attain a state of being focused on pure intellect
and mental energy.
The Awakened are skilled at bending minds
and unleashing devastating psionic attacks, and
they can read the secrets of the world through
psionic energy. Awakened mystics who take to
adventuring excel at unraveling mysteries,
solving puzzles, and defeating monsters by
turning them into unwilling pawns.
#### Bonus Disciplines
At 1st level, you learn two additional psionic
disciplines of your choice. They must be chosen
from among the Awakened disciplines.
#### Awakened Talent
At 1st level, you gain proficiency with two of the
following skills of your choice: Animal Handling,
Deception, Insight, Intimidation, Investigation,
Perception, and Persuasion.
#### Psionic Investigation
Starting at 3rd 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
discipline), 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.
#### Psionic Surge
Starting at 6th level, you can overload your
psychic focus to batter down an opponent’s
defenses. You can impose disadvantage on a
target’s saving throw against a discipline or
talent you use, but at the cost of using your
psychic focus. Your psychic focus immediately
ends if it’s active, and you can’t use it until you
finish a short or long rest.
You can’t use this feature if you can’t use your
psychic focus.
#### 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. 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.

\columnbreak

### Order of the Immortal
The Order of the Immortal uses psionic energy to
augment and modify the physical form.
Followers of this order are known as Immortals.
They use psionic energy to modify their bodies,
strengthening them against attack and turning
themselves into living weapons.
Their mastery of the physical form grants
them their name, for Immortals are notoriously
difficult to kill.
#### Bonus Disciplines
At 1st level, you learn two additional psionic
disciplines of your choice. They must be chosen
from among the Immortal disciplines.
#### Immortal Durability
Starting at 1st level, your hit point maximum
increases by 1 per mystic level.
In addition, while you aren’t wearing armor or
wielding a shield, your base AC equals 10 + your
Dexterity modifier + your Intelligence modifier.
#### Psionic Resilience
Starting at 3rd level, your psionic energy grants
you extraordinary fortitude. At the start of each
of your turns, you gain temporary hit points
equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of
0) if you have at least 1 hit point.
#### Surge of Health
Starting at 6th level, you can draw on your
psychic focus to escape death’s grasp. As a
reaction when you take damage, you can halve
that damage against you. Your psychic focus
immediately ends if it’s active, and you can’t use
it until you finish a short or long rest.
You can’t use this feature if you can’t use your
psychic focus.
#### Immortal Will
Starting at 14th level, you can draw on your
reserves of psionic power to survive beyond
death. At the end of your turn while at 0 hit
points, you can spend 5 psi points to
immediately regain a number of hit points equal
to your mystic level + your Constitution
modifier.

### Order of the Nomad
Mystics of the Order of the Nomad keep their
minds in a strange, rarified state. They seek to
accumulate as much knowledge as possible, as
they quest to unravel the mysteries of the
multiverse and seek the underlying structure of
all things. At the same time, they perceive a
bizarre, living web of knowledge they call the
noosphere.
Nomads, as their name indicates, delight in
travel, exploration, and discovery. They desire to
accumulate as much knowledge as possible, and
the pursuit of secrets and hidden lore can
become an obsession for them.
#### Bonus Disciplines
At 1st level, you learn two additional psionic
disciplines of your choice. They must be chosen
from among the Nomad disciplines.

\pagebreakNum

#### Breadth of Knowledge
At 1st level, you gain the ability to extend your
knowledge. When you finish a long rest, you gain proficiency.
Choose 1 skill, 1 tool, 1 vehicle, 1 language, 1 non-exotic weapon, 1 instrument, OR 1 gaming set, this proficiency lasts until your next long rest. Someone on your plane of existence must be proficient in your choice in order to gain this bonus.

#### Memory of One Thousand Steps
At 3rd level, you gain the ability to use psionics
to recall your steps. As a reaction when you are
hit by an attack, you can teleport to an
unoccupied space that you occupied since the
start of your last turn, and the attack misses you.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again
until you finish a short or long rest.
#### Superior Teleportation
At 6th level, you gain a superior talent for
teleportation. When you use a psionic discipline
to teleport any distance, you can increase that
distance by up to 10 feet.
#### Effortless Journey
Starting at 14th level, your mind can mystically
move your body. Once on each of your turns, you
can forfeit up to 30 feet of your movement to
teleport the distance you forfeited. You must
teleport to an unoccupied space you can see.

### Order of the Soul Knife
The Order of the Soul Knife sacrifices the
breadth of knowledge other mystics gain to
focus on a specific psionic technique. These
mystics learn to manifest a deadly weapon of
pure psychic energy that they can use to cleave
through foes.
Soul knives vary widely in their approach to
this path. Some follow it out of a desire to
achieve martial perfection. Others are ruthless
assassins who seek to become the perfect killer.
Martial Training
At 1st level, you gain proficiency with medium
armor and martial weapons.
#### Soul Knife
Starting at 1st level, you gain the ability to
manifest a blade of psychic energy. As a bonus
action, you create scintillating knives of energy
that project from both of your fists. You can’t
hold anything in your hands while manifesting
these blades. You can dismiss them as a bonus
action.
For you, a soul knife is a martial melee weapon
with the light and finesse properties. It deals 1d10
psychic damage on a hit.
As a bonus action, you can prepare to use the
blades to parry; you gain a +2 bonus to AC until
the start of your next turn or until you are
incapacitated.
#### 
Hone the Blade
Starting at 3rd level, you can spend psi points to
augment your soul knife’s attack rolls and
damage. You gain a bonus to attack and damage
rolls with your soul knives depending on the
number of psi points spent, as shown on the
table below. This bonus lasts for 10 minutes.

| Psi Points | Attack and Damage Bonus |
|:----:|:----|
| 2 | +1 |
| 5 | +2 |
| 7 | +4 |

\columnbreak

#### Psionic Flurry
Starting at 6th level, you can overload your
psychic focus to speed up your attacks. As an action you may make one attack against any number of creatures within 5 feet of you with advantage.
Your psychic focus immediately
ends if it’s active, and you can’t use it until you
finish a short or long rest. 
You can’t use this feature if you can’t use your
psychic focus.
#### Phantom Knife
Starting at 14th level, you can make an attack
that phases through most defenses. As an action,
you can make one attack with your soul knife.
Treat the target’s AC as 10 against this attack,
regardless of the target’s actual AC.

### Order of the Wu Jen
The Order of the Wu Jen features some of the
most devoted mystics. These mystics seek to
lock themselves away from the world, denying
the limits of the physical world and replacing it
with a reality that they create for themselves.
Known as wu jens, these mystics cast their
minds into the world, seize control of its
fundamental principles, and rebuild it.
In practical terms, wu jens excel at controlling
the forces of the natural world. They can hurl
objects with their minds, control the four
elements, and alter reality to fit their desires.
#### Bonus Disciplines
At 1st level, you learn two additional psionic
disciplines of your choice. They must be chosen
from among the Wu Jen disciplines.
#### Hermit’s Study
At 1st level, you gain proficiency with two of the
following skills of your choice: Animal Handling,
Arcana, History, Insight, Medicine, Nature,
Perception, Religion, or Survival.
#### Elemental Attunement
Starting at 3rd level, when a creature’s
resistance reduces the damage dealt by a psionic
discipline of yours, you can spend 1 psi point to
cause that use of the discipline to ignore the
creature’s resistance. You can’t spend this point
if doing so would increase the discipline’s cost
above your psi limit.
#### Arcane Dabbler
At 6th level, you learn three wizard spells of your
choice and always have them prepared. The
spells must be of 1st through 3rd level.
As a bonus action, you can spend psi points to
create spell slots that you can use to cast these
spells, as well as other spells you are capable of
casting. The psi-point cost of each spell slot is
detailed on the table below.

|Spell Slot Level | Psi Cost |
|:---:|:---|
| 1st | 2 |
| 2nd | 3 |
| 3rd | 5 |
| 4th | 6 |
| 5th | 7 |

\pagebreakNum

The spell slot remains until you use it or finish a
long rest. You must observe your psi limit when
spending psi points to create a spell slot.
Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can
replace one of the chosen wizard spells with a
different wizard spell of 1st through 3rd level.

#### Elemental Mastery
Starting at 14th level, if you have resistance to a
type of damage, you can spend 2 psi points as a
reaction when you take damage of that type to
ignore that damage; you gain immunity to that
damage type until the end of your next turn.

## Psionic Disciplines and Talents

Psionic talents and disciplines are the heart of a
mystic’s craft. They are the mental exercises and
psionic formulae used to forge will into tangible,
magical effects.

Psionic disciplines were each discovered by
different orders and tend to reflect their
creators’ specialties. However, a mystic can learn
any discipline regardless of its associated order.

### Using a Discipline

Each psionic discipline has several ways you can
use it, all contained in its description. The
discipline specifies the type of action and
number of psi points it requires. It also details
whether you must concentrate on its effects,
how many targets it affects, what saving throws
it requires, and so on.
The following sections go into more detail on
using a discipline. Psionic disciplines are magical
and function similarly to spells.

### Psychic Focus
The Psychic Focus section of a discipline
describes the benefit you gain when you choose
that discipline for your psychic focus.

### Effect Options and Psi Points
A discipline provides different options for how
to use it with your psi points. Each effect option
has a name, and the psi point cost of that option
appears in parentheses after its name. You must
spend that number of psi points to use that
option, while abiding by your psi limit. If you
don’t have enough psi points left, or the cost is
above your psi limit, you can’t use the option.
Some options show a range of psi points,
rather than a specific cost. To use that option,
you must spend a number of points within that
point range, still abiding by your psi limit. Some
options let you spend additional psi points to
increase a discipline’s potency. Again, you must
abide by your psi limit, and you must spend all
the points when you first use the discipline; you
can’t decide to spend additional points once you
see the discipline in action.
Each option notes specific information about
its effect, including any action required to use it
and its range.

### Components
Disciplines don’t require the components that
many spells require. Using a discipline requires
no spoken words, gestures, or materials. The
power of psionics comes from the mind.
### Duration
An effect option in a discipline specifies how
long its effect lasts.
 
**Instantaneous** If no duration is specified, the
effect of the option is instantaneous.
 
**Concentration** Some options require
concentration to maintain their effects. This
requirement is noted with “conc.” after the
option’s psi point cost. The “conc.” notation is
followed by the maximum duration of the
concentration. For example, if an option says
“conc., 1 min.,” you can concentrate on its effect
for up to 1 minute.
Concentrating on a discipline follows the same
rules as concentrating on a spell. This rule means
you can’t concentrate on a spell and a discipline
at the same time, nor can you concentrate on
two disciplines at the same time. See chapter 10,
“Spellcasting,” in the Player’s Handbook for how
concentration works.

### Targets and Areas of Effect
Psionic disciplines use the same rules as spells
for determining targets and areas of effect, as
presented in chapter 10, “Spellcasting,” of the
Player’s Handbook.
### Saving Throws and Attack Rolls
If a discipline requires a saving throw, it
specifies the type of save and the results of a
successful or failed saving throw. The DC is
determined by your psionic ability.
Some disciplines require you to make an attack
roll to determine whether the discipline’s effect
hits its target. The attack roll uses your psionic
ability.
### Combining Psionic Effects
The effects of different psionic disciplines add
together while the durations of the disciplines
overlap. Likewise, different options from a
psionic discipline combine if they are active at
the same time. However, a specific option from a
psionic discipline doesn’t combine with itself if
the option is used multiple times. Instead, the
most potent effect—usually dependent on how
many psi points were used to create the effect—
applies while the durations of the effects
overlap.
 
Psionics and spells are separate effects, and
therefore their benefits and drawbacks overlap.
A psionic effect that reproduces a spell is an
exception to this rule.

points.

**Grasp (3 psi; conc., 1 min.)** You attempt to
grasp a huge or smaller creature in telekinetic energy and hold it

on a Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity
(Acrobatics) check contested by your psionic
ability plus your proficiency bonus. When a
target attempts to escape in this way, you can
spend psi points to boost your check, abiding by
your psi limit. You gain a +1 bonus per psi point
spent.

next turn. On a successful save, the target takes

**Frozen Sanctuary (1-7 psi)** As an action, you sheathe yourself with icy resilience. You encase yourself in a cocoon of ice that has 12 AC, 10 hit points of each psi spent on this ability, and vulnerability to fire. Whenever you take damage, the cocoon takes the damage instead. If this damage reduces the cocoon to 0 hit points, you take any remaining damage. While it is active you are incapacitated and your speed is reduced to zero. On your turn you may spend a free action to heal the cocoon with psi points (up to your psi limit) healing it 10 hit points per psi point spent. The cocoon disappears after 8 hours or when you dismiss it as a free action at the end of your turn.

**Ice Sheet (2 psi)** As an action, choose a point
on the ground you can see within 60 feet of you.
The ground in a 20-foot radius centered on that
point becomes covered in ice for 10 minutes. It is
difficult terrain, and any creature that moves
more than 10 feet on it must succeed on a
Dexterity saving throw or fall prone. If the
surface is sloped, a creature that falls prone in
the area immediately slides to the bottom of the
slope.

**Frozen Rain (5 psi; conc., 1 min.)** As an
action, choose a point you can see within 120

centered on that point becomes deathly cold and

per each additional psi point spent on it.

object you touch radiates light in a 20-foot
radius and dim light for an additional 20 feet.
The light lasts until your concentration ends.
Alternatively, a creature you touch radiates light
in the same manner if it fails a Dexterity saving
throw. While lit in this manner, it can’t hide, and
attack rolls against it gain advantage.

**Dispelling Light (4 psi)** A 30-foot-radius sphere of light spreads from a point you choose for one minute. The sphere is bright light and sheds dim light for an additional 30 feet.
If you chose an object you are holding or one that isn't being worn or carried, the light shines from and moves with the object. Completely covering the object with something opaque blocks the light. If any of this effects’ area overlaps with darkness made by a spell of 3rd level or lower, the darkness is dispelled.

**Shadow Beasts (3 psi; conc., 1 min.)** As an
action, you cause two darklings to appear in
unoccupied spaces you can see within 60 feet of

ends, the darklings disappear. See Volo's Guide for their stat block.

**Radiant Beam (5 psi; conc., 1 min.)** As an
action, you project a beam of light at one
creature you can see within 60 feet of you. The

wave in a 20-foot-by-20-foot square. At least
some portion of the square’s border must be

must make a Strength saving throw. On a failed
save, a target takes 1d6 bludgeoning damage, is
knocked prone, and is pulled up to 10 feet closer

grant yourself and up to ten willing creatures
you can see within 60 feet of you the ability to
breathe underwater for the next 24 hours.

around a creature. Choose one creature you can
see within 60 feet of you. The target must make a
Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, it
becomes trapped in the sphere of water until
your concentration ends. While the target is
trapped, its speed is halved, it suffers
disadvantage on attack rolls, and it can’t see
anything more than 10 feet away from it.
However, attack rolls against it also suffer
disadvantage. The target can repeat the saving
throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the
effect on itself on a successful one.

action, you cause a water elemental to appear in
an unoccupied space you can see within 120 feet

6d6 thunder damage, is pushed in a straight line
up to 30 feet away from the wall, and is knocked
prone.

causing it to miss.

**Psychic Focus** Whenever you focus on this

modifier to the psychic attack’s damage rolls.

**Ethereal Weapon (1 psi)** As a bonus action,
you temporarily transform one weapon you’re
holding or your unarmed strike into pure psionic
energy. The next attack you make with it before
the end of your turn ignores the target’s armor,
requiring no attack roll. Instead, the target
makes a Dexterity saving throw against this
discipline. On a failed save, the target takes the

damage from the attack but suffers no additional
effects that would normally be imposed on a hit.

with a truthful answer. A creature is immune to
this ability if it is immune to being charmed.

**Ransack Mind (5 psi; conc., 1 hr.)** While you
concentrate on this ability, you probe one
creature’s mind. The creature must remain

village from orc marauders and am therefore a
coward” or “Magic is a scourge, so I renounce
it”).  A directly harmful, or contradictory, idea or memory (Such as “I love getting hit with clubs” or fond memories of getting eaten by a dragon and dying) are dismissed by the target.

saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 1d10

Psionic talents are minor abilities that require
psionic aptitude but don’t drain a mystic’s
reservoir of psionic power. Talents are similar to
disciplines and use the same rules, but with
three important exceptions:

- You can never use your psychic focus on a
talent.
- Talents don’t require you to spend psi points
to use them.
- Talents aren’t linked to Mystic Orders.
The talents are presented below in
alphabetical order.

radiate from your body in a 20-foot radius and

instrument, or any other sound you pick. It lasts
for 1 minute.

the current turn. You don’t need to share a

# Notes

This is a section for those who want to know some of my reasoning behind my changes, as well as a list of changes I have made from the original design.

## Primary Goals
- Bring mystic in line in terms of power- it should not be able to do everyone’s jobs better than them
- Keep versatility- The Mystics ability to be built to fit different roles should be kept

## Secondary Goals
- Simplify- currently the mystic is very complex, which is not necessarily bad, but all simplification is welcome.

- Normalize Saving Throws- there are way to many powers that are Int saving throws, while some int saves should exist, saves against charms and illusions are across the board wisdom saves.

## Things I Keep in mind
- Psionics are not Magic – I should keep psionics and magic at about the same power level, but  make them different. For example, no psionic power should require material components beyond what you directly affect with the spell (For example: Mystic arrow is okay requiring a ranged weapon because the whole point is to animate a weapon, but a mystic cannot copy a revivify spell because that consumes diamonds to return a soul) 
- Psionic mastery allows multiple concentrations at once for psionic disciplines, so I need to keep in mind combo potential, both good and bad.
- There is a conversion for psi points to spell slots included in the wu-jen subclass, which should be used to track power

### Power Compared to Casters
This is the mystics psi points compared to its effective psi points (assuming a, mystic uses a max stength consumptive power and Psionic mastery the max number of times in a day). This is meant to be compared to the spell point progression in the DMG, which I will not be posting dues to it not being SRD.

| Level | Psi Points | Effective Psi Points
|:---:|:---:|:---:|
|1|4|4|
|2|6|6|
|3|14|14|
|4|17|17|
|5|27|27|
|6|32|32|
|7|38|38|
|8|44|44|
|9|57|57|
|10|64|71|
|11|64|80|
|12|64|80|
|13|64|89|
|14|64|89|
|15|64|93|
|16|64|93|
|17|64|104|
|18|71|111|
|19|71|111|
|20|71|111|

The mystic stays relatively close to the recommended amount if you compare the effective psi to the DMG spell points. it peaks over the amount from levels 10-14 and under from level 17-20.

### The Role of the Mystic
The Mystic is a strange blend of eldritch and full caster, having a maximum power cap of about 5th level spells, but having those spells on a per day basis.

### Thoughts on the Current Build

- I might change Potent Psionics to be subclass specific like cleric domains

- I am not happy with my current soul knife fix. They need something more at 1st level. changing the damage dice to a d10 is a stopgap fix to bring their power up a bit.

- I want to look into allowing stronger spells like warlocks (possibly give each discipline a “Ultra” ability and allow the use of 1 "Utlra"/day)

\pagebreakNum

# Changelog 
## V 0.1
### Equipment
-	changed mace to any simple weapon
-	 removed studded leather armor, you are a full caster, you don’t get to start with the best light armor

### Psychic Focus
-	added limit to number of times you can swap your focus. You can still swap a lot, but it is no longer infinite
Strength of mind 
-	now gained at level 5

### Psionic Mastery
-	changed “Special Psi Points” to “Mastery Points”
-	changed wording for clarity

### Immortal
#### Immortal durability
-	Changed Constitution modifier to intelligence. If an immortal plans on going into melee (which is the point of the immortal) we cannot make his unarmored defense based off of two weaker stats AND disallow shield use.

### Nomad
#### Breadth of Knowledge
-	Changed from 2 skills or languages to 1 skill, 1 tool, 1 vehicle, 1 language, 1 non-exotic weapon, 1 instrument, OR 1 gaming set every day. I added the need for someone on the plane to know how to use it mostly for flavor.

### Soul Knife
-	Consumptive Knife has been removed due to the “bag of rats” problem. Killing any creature for a 1st level spell slot equivalent that you can do infinitely is very strong, especially because you can stack up points to cast high level abilities.
-	Added psionic flurry, a 6th level ability to replace consumptive knife.

### Disciplines
#### Aura Sight
-	Assess foe is now a contested insight vs deception, inspired by the neothic’s weird insight
Bestial Form
-	Tough hide is no longer a flat bonus to AC, as this had too much stacking potential, and does not make sense with the way natural armor works. It is now like cheaper, but not as effective mage armor.  Your AC is set to 12 + Dex.

#### Brute Force
-	Brute Strike is now is concentration up to one minute like the smite spells.

#### Crown of Despair
-	Dolorous mind’s  cost is increased from 5 to 6, technically it is weaker than hold monster, because paralyzed is worse than incapacitated, but is very close in terms of power.

#### Crown of Disgust
-	Wall of Repulsion no longer prevents unwilling movement, because being grossed out will not stop you from being shoved around. If you want a physical wall, take one of the “Mastery of” Disciplines that give physical walls

#### Intelect fortress
-	Psychic backlash now deals 1d10 damage, so it is no longer just better than hellish rebuke.
-	Changed wording on psychic parry to clarify that it must be applied before results are determined (like lucky)

#### Mantle of Awe
-	Center of attention is really strong for a 1st level spell equivalent, it is cheaper than invisibility. Changed from 2 to 3 psi points to make it on par with invisibility’s cost
-	Invoke awe is now a wisdom saving throw like all other charms

#### Mantle of Command
-	Command to strike has been changed from 3 psi to 2 psi and has the ally make one weapon attack instead of the attack action as this could effectively double your fighter’s power for a 2nd level equivalent.
-	Overwhelming attack now grants only one weapon attack per ally

#### Mantle of Fear
-	Incite fear now has the same text as the cause fear spell for clarity, it no longer affects constructs of undead
-	Incite panic no longer works on constructs or undead
-	Incite panic’s cost has been raised to 7, and now ends after one save (compared to confusion for balance, this targets more than you are likely to get with confusion and guarantees that they cannot act normally if they fail)

#### Mantle of Joy
-	Soothing presence is now an action instead of a bonus action, because otherwise it gives more total temp HP AND is quicker than false life. Now it gives more hp, but the trade off is it is split among three characters

#### Mastery of Force
-	Push now takes into account a target’s size. You can no longer shove a Tarrasque for less than a 1st level spell
-	 Inertial Armor’s base AC has been changed to 13 + Dex from 14 + Dex. It was just mage armor but better. Now in exchange for not being able to cast it on others, you gain resistance to force damage.
-	Grasp now has a size limit of huge, as Bigby’s hand has a size limit of huge at a 5th level spell (this is a bit weaker as each crush or move takes psi, so I am allowing to grab the same size).

\pagebreakNum

#### Mastery of Ice
-	Frozen Sanctuary now grants 8 instead of 20 temp HP so it is not both faster and more giving twice the HP of a False Life cast at 2nd level. Now it grants 3 less temp hp (on average) but is a bonus action.

#### Mastery of Light and Darkness
-	Psychic focus no longer pierces magical darkness
-	Added Dispelling Light to get rid of magical darkness. It is similar daylight, but has reduced range and time. However it is cheaper than daylight taking 4 psi instead of 5 psi for a 3rd level spell
-	Shadow beasts no longer calls shadows because Strength Drain is a nightmare of paperwork for the DM (having to recalculate a creatures attack and damage every time they get hit) I am replacing them with Darklings for now as they have the same CR

#### Mastery of Water
-	Watery grasp’s damage has been reduced to 1d6, the same as a comparable spell of the same level, earth tremor. 
-	Water whip now pushes targets 15 feet (like gust of wind) instead of allowing repositioning however you like. Now it is more like a one turn gust of wind that is damaging.

#### Mastery of Weather
-	Whirlwind radius reduced to 10 feet and psi cost increased to 3 so it is no longer just better earth tremor. 
-	Lightning leap now has variable length and forces you to be at the end of the lightning bolt if you teleport with it (making it more like jumping with the lightning)
-	Wall of Thunder’s damage reduced to 5d6 as wall of fire is the same level and deals on average 1 more damage than wall of thunder before this change and does not block creatures passing through it, this requires concentration so I will keep the 30 foot throw for now.

#### Mastery of Wood and Earth
-	Wall of Wood is had its HP reduced from 100 to 15 because the wood wall made by a 2nd level spell equivalent was stronger than the 5th level wall of stone which has an HP of 30. It is now vulnerable to fire damage, because it is made of wood.
-	Armored Form changed to 7 psi to match iron durability’s iron resistance

#### Nomadic Arrow
-	Psychic Focus changed to ignoring disadvantage from long range, as blanket disadvantage immunity is a bit too strong

#### Nomadic Mind
-	Psychic Focus no longer grants a skill
-	Find creature no longer pinpoints within 3 miles, but is up to the DM’s choice totally. A 1st level spell equivalent should not be able to find any creature with no save.  
-	Wandering eye has had its casting and vision rance reduced to 30 from 60. It was just “Better arcane eye”

#### Nomadic Step
-	Psychic focus now says “power” instead of “magic” 
-	Transposition now says “Willing creature” instead of “Ally”

#### Psionic Restoration
-	Removed Restore Life and Restore Vigor for replicating effects that spells need components that cost large amounts of gold to cast.
-	Added Continual Health,  a sort of lesser regeneration, as a capstone ability.

#### Psionic Weapon
-	Added “any of” before “additional effects” on ethereal weapon to clarify that ethereal weapon does not add effects
-	Augmented weapon  now only gives a +2 and costs 6 psi instead of 5. It was just “better, cheaper  Magic Weapon”. It is now in line with magic weapons cost.
Psychic Assault
-	Psionic blast’s damage has been reduced to 1d4 to make it match up better with magic missile, another spell that automatically hits
-	Ego whip no longer works on creatures that cannot be frightened

#### Psychic Disruption
-	Mind storm now only affects the targets next saving throw not all.

#### Psychic Inquisition
-	Phantom idea now no longer works with directly harmful or overly contradictory memories

#### Psychic  Phantoms
-	Int saves are now Wis saves, like other illusions
-	Removed advantage on all attacks for distracting figament, that is too strong for 1 psi
-	Phantom betrayal’s cost increased from 5 to 7 (Being very similar to dominate monster, an 8th level spell,  but with the drawback of not truly controlling them)

#### Telepathic Contact
-	Exacting query is now a yes/no question to match up with Psycic inquisition
-	Occluded mind is now a wisdom saving throw and does not work with harmful ideas (like suggestion)
-	Occluded mind now costs 3 psi
-	Broken Will is now a wisdom saving throw
-	Psychic grip is now a wisdom saving throw and costs 7 psi (like hold monster)
-	Psychic grip now ends if you leave its range
-	Psycic domination removed for being just dominate monster (8th level) with a 5th level spell slot

### Psionic Talents
-	Mystic charm is no longer undetectable
-	Energy beam is now separated out to energy beam and energy blast. 
-	Added “Hone weapon”, a shillelagh-style talent for those mystics who like to be in melee (like immortals)

## V 0.1.1
### Mastery of Ice
- Frozen Sanctuary was previously nerfed into near uselessness when you take into account Mystic Recovery, however Increasing the temp hp is still unbalanced, so instead we are changing it stronger, but have more of a limited use. Now you can freeze yourself in ice to avoid damage, but are incapacitated.
