You awaken to your psionic potential, which enhances your mind or body. Increase one ability score of your choice by 1, to a maximum of 20, to represent this enhancement.
You also harbor a wellspring of psionic power within yourself, an energy that ebbs and flows as you channel it in various ways. This power is represented by your Psionic Energy die, the starting size of which is a d6. You gain a number of Psionic Energy dice equal to half your proficiency bonus (rounded up).
You can use your Psionic Energy dice in the following ways:
Psi-Guided Strike. Once on each of your turns when you hit with an attack roll that uses the ability increased by this feat, you can expend 1 Psionic Energy die to add psychic damage to that attack equal to 1 roll of the expended Psionic Energy die.
Psi-Hardened Shield. When a creature would hit you with an attack, you can use your reaction to expend 1 Psionic Energy die to add an amount to your AC equal to 1 roll of the expended Psionic Energy die against that attack, potentially turning the hit into a miss.
You regain all your expended Psionic Energy dice when you finish a long rest. In addition, as a bonus action, you can regain one expended Psionic Energy die, but you can't do so again until you finish a short or long rest.
When you reach certain levels in this class, the size of your Psionic Energy dice increases: at 5th level (d8), 11th level (d10), and 17th level (d12).
If you have Psionic Energy dice from another source, such as a class feature, you combine all of your Psionic Energy dice into a single pool, and use only the the largest starting size for the Psionic Energy die granted by any source.
