Esoteric Scholarship

3rd, 5th, 9th, 11th, and 13th Level Feature

You gain access to a personal holocron. Over the course of a long rest, you can focus on your connection to the force and store force powers within your holocron. You must have your holocron and Artificer’s implements in order to perform this action.

You may choose 2 powers to record in the holocron, even if you do not have its prerequisite powers. You cannot store force powers higher than your max power level. While the holocron is on your person, you can cast powers stored in your holocron as if you had learned them and they do not count against your force powers known. You use your forcecasting ability modifier for these forcepowers.

You can record one additional power at 5th level, increasing again at 9th, 11th, and 13th level.

Your holocron requires attunement, can only be used by you, and counts as a forcecasting focus for your force powers while you are attuned to it.

When you finish a long rest, you may change which powers are recorded in the holocron.

There is Knowledge

6th Level Feature

Whenever you see a creature cast a force power, you may use your reaction to attempt to store that force power in your holocron for later use if it is of a level you can cast. Additionally, you can choose to replace or remove one or more force powers learned by this feature each time you use it.

Make an ability check using your forcecasting ability with proficiency. The DC equals 10 + two times the power’s level. On a success you store the power for later use. On a failure, the power is not stored.

Once you have used this feature on a creature, you cannot do so again on the same creature until you complete a short or long rest.

You can store an amount of levels worth of force powers equal to your Consular level at a time.

Additionally, when you make a ranged or melee hit, you can use your reaction to make an Intelligence (Lore) check contested by a target's AC to add your Consular level + your proficiency bonus to the damage rolled.

Force Flow

10th Level Feature

Your holocron is a vast repository of knowledge. As a bonus action, you can cast a force power from your holocron without expending your force points. You cannot cast a force power at a higher level than the force power in this way. You have a number of uses equal to your proficiency bonus + half your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1). You regain all uses on a long rest.

Additionally, your knowledge of the force lends a boon to your abilities. Choose two skills that you are proficient in from Investigation, Lore, Nature, Piloting, or Technology. You gain expertise in those skills.
