The Force
The force is a mystical power that allows you to command the power of life and death itself.
At 1st level, you know one force discipline of your choice. The Disciplines Known column of the force adept 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.
Force Points
You have an internal reservoir of energy that can be devoted to force disciplines you know. This energy is represented by force points.
Each force discipline describes effects you can create with it by spending a certain number of force points. A force talent requires no force points.
The number of force points you have is based on your force adept level, as shown in the force Points column of the force adept table. The number shown for your level is your force point maximum. Your force point total returns to its maximum when you finish a long rest. The number of force points you have can’t go below 0 or over your maximum.
Force Limit
Though you have access to a potent amount of force energy, it takes training and practice to channel that energy.
There is a limit on the number of force points you can spend to activate a force discipline. The limit is based on your force adept level, as shown in the force Limit column of the force adept table. For example, as a 3rd-level force adept, you can spend no more than 3 force points on a discipline each time you use it, no matter how many force points you have.
Force Talents
A force talent is a minor effect you have mastered. At 1st level, you know one force talent of your choice. You learn additional talents of your choice at higher levels. The Talents Known column of the force adept table shows the total number of talents you know at each level; when that number goes up for you, choose a new talent.
Force Focus
You can focus the force on one of your disciplines to draw ongoing benefits from it. As a bonus action, you can choose one of your force disciplines and gain its force 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.

Your choice grants you features at 1st level and again at 3rd, 6th, and 14th level.

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.
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.

Even the simplest force technique requires a deep understanding of how the force can augment the mind and body. This understanding allows you to alter your defenses to better deal with threats. Starting at 4th level, you can replace your proficiency in intelligence 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 intelligence. This change lasts until you finish your next short or long rest.

In addition, you add your wisdom modifier to any damage roll you make for a force talent.
Consumptive Power
At 10th level, you gain the ability to sacrifice your physical durability in exchange for force power. When activating a force discipline, you can pay its force point cost with your hit points, instead of using any force 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.
Mastery of the force
Beginning at 11th level, your mastery of the force allows you to push your mind beyond its normal limits.

You can’t also spend your normal force points on these disciplines; you can spend only the special points gained from this feature. When you finish a long rest, you lose any of these special points that you haven’t spent. If more than one of the disciplines you activate with these 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 special points, the disciplines end that you’re concentrating on. At 15th level, the pool of force points you gain from this feature increases to 6. 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.
