Onmyoji

Well-versed in the art of Onmyōdō, an ancient magical art that marries arcane tradition and spiritual attunement. Onmyōji are specialists in magic and divination. They are spellcasters that give physical form to the spiritual energies exuded by the elements, spirits of the dead, and gods around them. These physical manifestations of spiritual energy are called shikigami, and their form is influenced by the energies that comprise them. These shikigami follow their Onmyōji summoners to assist them in their travels and further their goals.

Spiritual Knowledge

You gain proficiency in the Insight, Nature, and Religion skills. You also gained the ability to communicate with otherworldly creatures without any concern of language barrier.

Onmyōdō Summoning

You gain mastery over the ancient art of Onmyōdō. Starting at 2nd level, you can summon a shikigami within 60 feet of you as an action by expending a spell slot of any level. It shares your initiative and follows your orders. It attacks immediately after your turn. It's appearance is influenced heavily by your own will and by the spiritual energies you used to summon it. It understands your languages and can communicate with you and others physically and telepathically. It is physically tangible no matter what form it takes and can even interact with and carry objects. 

• Your choice of a adult white dragon, arclight phoenix, guardian wolf or skull flier.
• Your shikigami remains summoned for 1 minute until you use a bonus action to dismiss it or you are knocked unconscious. The time limit will increase at level 10.

Overtake

Your shikigami may be overwhelmed being summoned for too long. If your shikigami remains summoned after the time limit,  you must succeed on a DC 17 Charisma saving throw, minus off total by number of turns passed. Make a saving throw every end of turn. If fail, you are possessed by your shikigami. You are incapacitated and loses control of your body. The shikigami now controls the body but doesn't deprive the target of awareness. The possession lasts until you drop to 0 hit points or your shikigami is forced out by an effect like the dispel evil and good spell. You can no longer summon your shikigami after possession until dawn and gain one level of exhaustion.

Shield Sacrifice

The bond with your shikigami has strengthened to a point where it will jump into harm's way to protect you. Starting at 10th level, when you take any damage while your shikigami is summoned, you may use your reaction to sacrifice your shikigami and reduce the damage you would have taken by an amount equal to your shikigami's current hit points.

 

Next Strike

Starting at 6th level, your shikigami can attack twice, instead of once, when it takes the attack action on its turn.

Future Bond

Your bond with your shikigami increased along with the time limit and distance. Your shikigami can stay summoned for 10 minutes and is able to go as far as 140ft.

 

Shikigami Armed

The bond between you and your shikigami has reached a point where it is physically and mentally bolstered by your presence. Starting at 14th level, your shikigami can merge with you and transforms into an armour.

While in merge, you gain the following benefits:

• You have advantage on checks and saving throws.
• When you make any attack, you gain a bonus to the damage roll of +5.
• You have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.
• Your AC increases by 5.
• You can use actions of your shikigami.

Shikigami armed lasts for 1 minute. It ends early if you are knocked unconscious or if you dismissed your shikigami. You can also end shikigami armed on your turn as a bonus action.

 

Mind Control

As an onmyoji, you have enough experience dealing with otherworldly creatures. The target can only be otherworld creatures such as celestial, infernal and deities. The target must make a DC 19 Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, you take total control over the mind of your target, making it nothing more than a mindless puppet. On a success, the target resists your efforts to mind control it, and you can't attempt to do it again for 24 hours.
