Smith of the Eastern Blades

The Bladesmith has a preternatural ability to sense and harness the spirits imbued in inanimate objects.  Metals of the material plane whisper to the Soul Smith, guiding their hands to facilitate peerless craftsmanship as well as allowing them to unleash powerful effects in battle at the risk of potentially shattering the equipment.  

The Smith is proficient in the use of Smith's Tools.

When a creature is targeted by a Smith of the Eastern Blades action that calls for a saving throw, the DC is equal to 8 + proficiency + the Smith's WIS modifier.

Bonding of Blades

Bonding of Blades

The Bladesmith has proficiency with Smith's Tools.

At 3rd level, the Bladesmith may use an action to commune with one mundane weapon and bond with its inner spirit. They may do this once per short rest, and may bond with as many weapons at a time as his or her WIS modifier, a minimum of 1.

Bonding with a weapon identifies its true nature. For items crafted by a smith of an unknown alignment, roll on the alignment table to determine its alignment. For those whose alignment are known, simply refer to the table to determine the effects.

At 3rd level, as a Bonus Action, the Bladesmith may channel a bonded weapon's latent energies to buff the weapon for 1 minute. While a weapon is channeled, it is susceptible to damage and will break on an attack roll critical failure. While channeling is active, the bonded weapon will deal additional damage equal to half their WIS modifier rounded up. This damage's type depends on the alignment of the weapon.

Release Energy

Release Energy

At 7th level, once per turn, the Bladesmith may release energy from a currently held bonded weapon.  The effect manifested by the energy is dependent upon the alignment of the weapon.  At the end of their turn after using this feature, they must roll a d100.  If less than a 6 percentile is rolled, the bonded weapon breaks. They may use this feature a number of times equal to their WIS modifier per short rest.

LG = They imbue one of their attacks with a Divine Smite, adding 2d8 radiant damage to the attack, with an additional 1d8 damage added against fiends or undead.
LN = They replace one of their attacks with a shockwave that is 5 feet wide and 30 feet long. Any creature in its path must hake a DEX save. On a failure, the creature(s) will fall prone and take an additional 2d8 force damage. On a success, the creature(s) will not fall prone and will take half damage. 
LE = Their attacks during this turn have a range of 30/60, as shadow versions of them materialize to strike each target. 
NG = They use a reaction to cast the shield spell.
TN = They imbue an attack with thunder energy, adding 2d8 Thunder damage. The thunder damage from this attack cannot be healed until the target has had a long rest.
NE = They imbue an attack with a Vampiric effect. The creature takes an additional 2d8 psychic damage, and the Bladesmith is healed by this amount.
CG = They replace an attack with a stun effect. Lightning strikes the blade and arcs outward. All creatures within 5 feet of the Soul Smith must make a CON save or be stunned until the end of the Bladesmith's next turn.
CN = They imbue an attack with a Poison effect. The target takes an additional 2d8 poison damage and must pass a CON save or be poisoned for 1 minute.
