the Immortal Archetype uses psionic energy to augment and modify the physical form. Followers of this order are known as Immortals. They use psionic energy to modify their bodies, strengthening them against attacks and turning themselves into living weapons.
Their mastery of the physical form grants them their name, as Immortals are notoriously difficult to kill.
Immortal Mind 1st level
Starting at 1st level, while you aren't wearing armor or wielding a shield, your base AC equals 10 + your Constitution modifier + your Intelligence modifier.
Immortal Spells 1st level
You learn additional spells when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown on the Immortal Spells table. Each of these spells counts as a Psion spell for you, but it doesn't count against the number of Psion spells you know.
Whenever you gain a Psion level, you can replace one spell you gained from this feature with another spell of the same level. The new spell must be a necromancy or transmutation spell from the cleric, druid, paladin, or psion spell list.
You learn two Psychic Focuses and gain more as you improve them at later levels, which are specific to The Immortal as listed below. You can use your bonus action to start or change your focus to a chosen psychic focus. Whenever you complete a long rest, you can exchange your psychic focuses for different avatar focuses of your choice. Your focus ends if you become incapacitated.
Each focus has a benefit only granted while it is being focused on, as detailed below:
● Adaptive Body. While focused, you don't need to eat, breathe, or sleep. To gain the benefits of a long rest, you can spend 8 hours engaged in light activity, rather than sleeping during any of it. ● Bestial Form. While focused, you have advantage on Wisdom (Animal Handling) checks. ● Brute Force. While focused, you have advantage on Strength (Athletics) checks. ● Celerity.

When you attack with it while focused on this discipline, its damage is psychic and magical, rather than its normal damage type. Until you reach 6th level as a Psion, you don't add your Strength or Dexterity modifier to the psychic attack's damage rolls.
Improved Immortal Focus 6th level
Starting at 6th level, you gain another Psychic Focus, and you can prematurely end your psychic focus (no action required) to gain a benefit as described below. Once you end a focus in this way, you can't focus on it again until you finish a short or long rest.
● Adaptive Body. You gain resistance to acid, cold, fire, lightning, and thunder damage until the end of your next turn. ● Bestial Form. Until you focus on another psychic focus or start a short or long rest, you can see invisible creatures and objects within 10 feet of you, even if you are blinded. ● Brute Force. You gain a +5 bonus to Strength checks and saving throws until the end of your next turn. ● Celerity. Your walking speed increases by 30 feet until the end of the current turn.

One creature that you can see within 30 feet of you must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 3d6 poison damage and is poisoned until the end of your next turn. On a successful save, the target takes half as much damage and isn't poisoned. ● Diminution. You shift to an incredibly small size and then suddenly return to normal, sending an opponent flying backward. Choose one creature you can see within 5 feet of you. It must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. ● Giant Growth. You gain 10 temporary hit points. In addition, until the end of your next turn, your melee weapon attacks deal an extra 1d4 bludgeoning damage on a hit, and your reach increases by 5 feet. If you're smaller than Large, you also become Large until the end of your next turn. ● Iron Durability. You gain resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage until the end of your next turn. ● Psionic Restoration. You regain 3d8 hit points. ● Psionic Weapon. The next time you hit with a weapon attack before the end of your next turn, the weapon deals an additional 3d10 psychic damage.

Starting at 14th level, you gain another Psychic Focus as normal, and your psychic focuses improve. Whenever you start focusing on a psychic focus, you can expend 5 psi points to gain a benefit as described below:
● Adaptive Body. While you retain focus, you have resistance to your choice of acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage. You can use your action to change the damage type. ● Bestial Form. While you retain focus, wings sprout from your back, and you gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed. ● Brute Force. The first attack that you make that hits while you retain focus deals an additional 5d6 damage of the same type. This extra damage is magical, even if the modified damage isn't. ● Celerity.

The Soul Knife
