Soul Strike

There is nothing more frustrating to a knight than an enemy out of reach, when you are just unable to close the distance. As indignation burns through your soul you reach deep and lash our with the weapons stored within, releasing your anger your chosen weapon bursts forth hurtling through the air at your enemy.

Make a ranged attack with a weapon stored in your soul armory, range 30 feet, weapon returns to your soul space at the end of your turn.

Any ability of the weapon that requires a action or bonus action to activate cannot be activated before use but any passive abilities the weapon possesses can be used.

Soul Shift

Being able to hit your enemies from afar isn't nearly as satisfying as closing the distance and striking them down. your weapons are apart of your soul and if they can return to you why wouldn't to be able to return to them instead.

after using a weapon for soul strike, as a bonus action reach out to the intangible connection you have with your weapon and pull yourself to it, teleporting yourself up to 30 feet to where your soul bound weapon now resides.

Re-configuring soul

Attuned items become one with your being in order to grant you power and abilities you wouldn’t normally have access to, these items are one with you as the weapons and armor in your soul space are one with.

As an action you may switch out the attuned set (consisting of 3 items that require attunment) you have equipped with another, stored in your soul space.

Sets must be pre-determined before any switches can occur and only complete sets can be switched.
