Blade Soul

Someone with immense power and knowledge has experimented on you. Whether or not this was the goal.... your soul has been unnaturally changed. This experimentation has made your soul more malleable. So malleable, you can channel your soul into the weapons you wield.

Level 3: Soul Bond

While wielding any weapon you are proficient in, you gain a +1 to your AC. If you wield two weapons or if you wield a weapon with two hands, you gain a +2 to your AC. 

You can manipulate your soul to bind it with any melee weapon of your choice. You can bind to a magic weapon only if it has the common rarity. As long as you're alive, it cannot break and you gain proficiency with weapons that are the same as your bonded weapon. You also use your charisma modifier for all attack and damage rolls instead of strength or dexterity. The damage type of the weapon counts as magical and the weapon counts as your arcane focus.

If you bind your soul to two weapons, you subtract 2 hit points from your hit point maximum. You may get them back if you unbind from either weapon. The binding and unbinding process works the same as the attuning rules, though you do not need to actually attune to your weapons to soul bond. You cannot bind your soul to three weapons at once.

Level 3: Blade Soul Spells

Level 3: Loyal Blade

You can recall the bonded weapon as a free action anytime the weapon is within 60 feet of you. In doing so, it flies in a straight line into your hand. If there is a medium or larger sized object blocking the path, the weapon hits the object then clatters to the ground. If a creature of any size is blocking the path, the creature must succeed a dexterity saving throw (DC=your spell save DC). On a failed save, the creature takes the normal damage of the weapon. On a success, the weapon glides into your hand without dealing damage. You can use this feature as a normal action to add a cantrip only if the cantrip has the weapon you are recalling as a material component.
