The Mindbreaker Conclave

Rangers of the Mindbreaker Conclave perform rituals with substances such as cenomorph fluid and Mindflayer organs as part of their initiation. As a result, they develop psychic abilities with which to combat all manner of threats.

Mindbreaker Magic

You learn an additional spell of 1st level or higher when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown in the Celestial Spells table. Each spell counts as a ranger spell for you, but it doesn’t count against the number of ranger spells you know.

Psi Strike

At 3rd level, you develop psychic abilities from your exposure to the magics of Mindflayers. As a bonus action, you make a Wisdom (Insight) check against a creature you can see that isn’t incapacitated, contested by the target’s Charisma (Deception) check. If you succeed, you gain the following benefits for 1 minute as you skim the surface of the target’s mind, or until you use this feature again:

• Your attacks deal an additional 1d8 psychic damage to the target.
• You know where the target is so long as it remains within 1 mile, and you ignore the benefits of invisibility on the target.
• You have advantage on Intelligence (Investigation), Wisdom (Insight), and Charisma (Persuasion) checks against the target.

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.

Psion Psyche

Additionally at 3rd level, your psychic abilities give you an uncanny mind. As a result, whenever you make an Intelligence check, you gain a bonus to the check equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of +1).

In addition, you gain proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Investigation, Insight, or Persuasion.

Insight

You gain proficiency in the Insight skill.

Investigation

You gain proficiency in the Investigation skill.

Persuasion

You gain proficiency in the Persuasion skill.

Mindful Harvester

At 7th level, when a life ends in your presence, you’re able to harvest and preserve a fragment of its psyche in its final moments. As a reaction when a creature with an Intelligence score of 3 or greater you can see dies within 30 feet of you, you can open your free hand and cause a Tiny trinket to appear there, a mind trinket.

You can have a maximum number of mind trinkets equal to your proficiency bonus, and you can’t create one while at your maximum.

You can use mind trinkets in the following ways:

• When you make an Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma saving throw, you can consume a mind trinket on your person to grant yourself a +5 bonus to the saving throw, allowing the mind fragment within to take the brunt of the effect instead.
• As a bonus action, you can consume a mind trinket and use your Psi Strike feature as part of the same action without expending a use of your Psi Strike feature.
• As an action, you can destroy one of your mind trinkets, no matter where it’s located. When you do so, you can ask the mind associated with the trinket one question. The mind answers you psychically in a language you can understand, regardless of whether it shared a language with you in life. It’s under no obligation to be truthful, and it answers as concisely as possible, eager to be free. The mind knows only what it knew in life, as determined by the DM.

In-Psi-ghtful Fighting

At 11th level, your attacks strike with unerring accuracy, as if you know where your prey will be before they even move. While your Psi Strike feature applies to a creature, you have advantage on all attacks against that creature.

Mind over Matter

At 15th level, your mind overrides your body’s limits against all but the worst injuries. You have resistance to psychic damage. In addition, you can act normally while incapacitated, unless you are at 0 Hit Points.
