Psion Subclass - Psychokinetic
My attempt at a subclass for "KIBBLESTASTY PSION"
Elemental Alignment
For this subclass you can become a generalist, or you can choose either fire, lightning or cold to align with. If you do choose to align with either fire, lightning or cold, you must choose the same for both the subclass & discipline. The element you align with will affect future abilities in this subclass.
(If you do not specialize, go to the Psychokinetic Generalist.)
Specialist
1st Level
Psionic Discipline
When you become a Psion & choose this subclass you feel a direct attachment to chaos & balance simultaneously, a direct connection to the elements.
You gain the Psychokinetic Discipline & add the associated cantrip below to your Psion list.
Cold – Shape Water
Fire – Control Flame
Lightning – Dancing Lights (presents as lightning)
3nd Level
At 3rd level you gain a unique way of bringing forward your element into the world, gaining the ability below relating to your element:
Ice Bomb
You gain finer control over the water molecules in the air & learn to freeze them into a solid block for protection, or for destruction.
As a bonus action you create a 5 foot cube of ice on the ground or a 10 foot cube in a body of water, up to a range of 30 feet from you. This cannot be used to freeze a creature. You could dive behind it to gain cover, or throw it down in the middle of a few enemies.
If you stay within range of the Ice Bomb, you can use your bonus action to maintain the Ice Bomb. At the end of your next turn (if it is not maintained) the Ice Bomb explodes, all creatures in a 15ft radius make a Constitution Saving Throw against your Psion Spell Save DC. On a failed save each creature takes your Intelligence Modifier as Cold Damage. (Half on a successful save if you take the Potent Psionic Talent).
This damage becomes Int Mod + 1d6 at level 5, Int Mod + 2d6 at level 11, Int Mod + 3d6 at level 17.
Aura of Heat
You have learned to become a vessel for fire and heat. As a Bonus Action you can concentrate for up to 1 minute, creating a 10 foot radius aura of searing heat centered on you. Any creature other than you who starts their turn within the aura, makes a Dexterity Saving Throw against your Psion Spell Save DC.
On a Failed Save, the creature takes your Intelligence Modifier as Fire Damage (Half on a successful save if you take the Potent Psionic Talent).
This damage becomes Int Mod + 1d6 at level 5, Int Mod + 2d6 at level 11, Int Mod + 3d6 at level 17.
You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to your Intelligence Modifier, Refreshing on a long rest. At level 10 this ability refreshes on a short rest.
Lightning Ejection
Filled with electricity & surging with power, you now eject people from your area with ease. When you use a Psi Point to recreate a spell or empower a Psionic Discipline ability (does not apply to your free psi points) that relates to lightning/thunder/wind, the power surges and explodes from you. Choose a creature within 30ft they make a Dexterity Saving Throw against your Psion Spell Save DC.
On a failed save the creature takes 1d6 Lighting damage & is pushed away from you 10 feet. On a successful save the creature is not moved & takes no damage unless you have the Potent Psionic Talent. The damage for this ability becomes 2d8 at level 5, 3d8 at level 11 & 4d8 at level 17.
As a reaction to being hit by an attack (spell, melee or ranged), you can spend 1 Psi Point & use this ability as a reaction, when you do so, you can choose to make this as a Spell Attack Roll or have the creature pass the normal Dexterity Saving Throw.
6th Level
Elemental Manipulation
You gain expanding abilities to manipulate your element. You gain a pool of Elemental Manipulation Points equal to half of your Psion level. This pool refreshes on a short rest. These points can be spent when you use an ability from your Psionic Discipline or Recreate a Spell & must be spend after the cast, but before any Saving throw or Attack Roll has been made. The effects are:
1 Point:
Add 2d12 Damage to one target of the ability. (Can only be used once per cast, determined before success of the spell is confirmed).
2 Points:
You cause a pulse to surge out from the target of the ability. Each creature within 10 ft of the target make a Dexterity Saving Throw for fire & lightning or a Constitution Saving Throw for cold. The creature takes damage equal to your 3rd level ability on a fail.
