When the ancient enslaved clans of Dwarves freed themselves from their Illithid captors after generations of psionic domination they were forever changed. One of these many changes came in the form of latent psionic powers do to generations being held mentally captive and their offspring being born into the hive mind. Although not as powerful as the Illithid they once called master, the Duergar have developed quite an understanding of Psionics. Among the duergar many show promise in being able to train psionics but rather train in martial prowess instead, wanting to separate themselves from their tragic past, those who dive deep into their latent abilities may earn the title of "Mind Mage" among their respective clan and is a title of great honor as their role in the clan is to prevent the mental enslavement of their clansmen from ever happening again. Psionic Defense Training is mandatory for all who seek the Title of "Mind Mage" and in the cornerstone of building ones psionic power. Once training is complete you gain the following benefits:
Basic Psionic Barrier. You are resistant to psychic damage. You gain +2 on saving throws.
Basic Psionic Bubble. As an Action, you may create a psionic sphere that helps shield yourself and any creature of your choice within range. This is a concentration ability. The Psionic Bubble has a radius of 20ft. centered around you. While in the bubble you and all creatures you choose are immune to any Scry from either psionic or magical means. You may choose to block any telepathic intrusions from outside sources. Friendly creatures within range gain +2 on saving throws versus psionic attacks. You may use this ability once a day for free and lasts 1 hour. You may use it additional times but for each time used after the first you will gain 1 point of exhaustion. Concentration checks use your Intelligence + proficiency modifiers. This ability ends if you receive the unconscious condition or die.
