Through rigorous study and innate intuition, you have attained mastery over the art of counterspelling, transcending the boundaries of conventional magic. Upon acquiring this feat, you gain the ability to cast the spell counterspell once at 3rd level without expending a spell slot.
When your casting of counterspell successfully negates an enemy's spell, you possess the uncanny ability to not only deflect the magic but also seize control of it. The countered spell is reflected back at its caster, with the caster becoming the sole target of the spell instead, utilizing their own Save DC or spell attack bonus. Furthermore, you gain insight into the workings of the reflected spell, learning it and adding it to your spell list. You must use your own spell slots to cast the stolen spell, but if you already knew the spell, you can cast it once without expending a spell slot until you complete a long rest.
However, your mastery over stolen magic is not without limits. You can only learn one spell at a time in this manner, and acquiring a new spell causes you to forget any previously stolen spells, losing any free castings of those spells until you complete a long rest.
