Void Disciple

Void Disciples are pilgrims to absence. They listen to the silence between stars and learn to shape the space that holds things apart. Their powers are not about raw creation but about removing, bending, or erasing: gravity reversed, spells unspoken, doorways folded closed. To be a Void Disciple is to treat nothingness as a tool and a teacher.

Class Features

Void Points (Level 1)

You gain a resource called Void Points that fuel many Disciple abilities. At 1st level, you have a number of Void Points equal to 1 + your Wisdom modifier (minimum 1). This increases at levels 5, 11, and 17 by +1 each. Void Points are regained after a long rest. Some features let you spend points to power effects; the cost is listed with each ability.

Touch of Nothing (Level 1)

At 1st level you learn to tap 'the space between.' Once per turn when you hit a creature with a weapon attack or a spell attack, you can spend 1 Void Point to deal an extra 1d6 necrotic damage and reduce the creature's speed by 5 feet until the end of your next turn. This extra damage increases to 2d6 at 6th level, 3d6 at 11th, and 4d6 at 17th.

Resource Cost: 1 Void Point

Void Sight (Level 2)

At 2nd level you perceive the seams of reality. You gain darkvision 60 feet (or increase existing darkvision by 30 feet). You automatically succeed on Wisdom (Perception) checks to notice unnatural gaps, illusions that rely on filling gaps, or spatially shifted objects. Once per short rest you can cast detect thoughts as a ritual that reads not words but existential anchors (no concentration).

Spatial Anchor (Spellcasting) (Level 3)

At 3rd level you can cast a small suite of void rites (see Spellcasting). You are a half-caster for spell slot progression and learn cantrips and a spell list tied to the Void Disciple tradition. Your spellcasting ability is Wisdom.

Umbral Step (Level 3)

At 3rd level you gain the Umbral Step martial ability (see Martial Abilities). You can use it a number of times per long rest equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum 1), or spend 2 Void Points to use it immediately.

Prerequisite: Spatial Anchor

Void Affinity (Level 6)

At 6th level your connection to nothingness strengthens. When you would be reduced to 0 hit points, you can instead drop to 1 hit point and become insubstantial until the end of your next turn, gaining resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing from nonmagical attacks. Once you use this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest, or you may spend 4 Void Points to use it again.

Hollow Grasp (Level 10)

At 10th level your void manipulations can imprison enemies in non-space. When you reduce a creature to half its hit points or lower (or when a creature within 30 feet fails a saving throw against a void ability you cast), you can spend 3 Void Points to pull it into a tethered hollow for 1 round — the creature is restrained until it succeeds on a Strength or Dexterity saving throw (its choice) at the end of each of its turns. The hollow exists out of phase and creatures inside take psychic damage equal to your Wisdom modifier at the start of their turns.

Prerequisite: Void Affinity

Entropy Releasement (Level 14)

At 14th level you can use catastrophic void energy. Once per long rest, or by spending 6 Void Points, you can create a 30-foot-radius zone of distorted being centered on a point you can see within 120 feet. For 1 minute (concentration), the zone reduces healing by half, halves regeneration effects, and deals 2d8 necrotic damage to creatures that begin their turn in the zone (Con save DC = 8 + proficiency + Wisdom modifier for half). Allies you designate treat the area as difficult terrain but are immune to the damage. Creatures reduced to 0 while inside are banished to a temporary void for 1 round and reappear at 1 hit point at the end of that round.

Prerequisite: Hollow Grasp

Master of Absence (Level 18)

At 18th level you can warp small regions of reality. Twice per long rest you can cast a longer-duration form of Fold Space (see spells) that creates a permanent-looking fold between two visible locations up to 1 mile apart; the fold lasts until dispelled but requires attunement of your presence to remain stable (if you move more than 1 mile from either end contact severs after 24 hours unless reanchored).

Prerequisite: Entropy Releasement

Avatar of the Void (Level 20)

At 20th level you may spend 10 Void Points (or once per long rest without paying points) to assume the Avatar of the Void for 1 minute. In this form you gain immunity to psychic and necrotic damage, resistance to all other damage except force, your melee weapon attacks deal an additional 4d8 psychic damage, and you ignore difficult terrain and can move through creatures and objects as if they were difficult terrain (you cannot end your movement inside an object or creature). You also emanate a 15-foot aura that reduces enemy attack rolls by -2 while active. After the effect ends you are Exhausted (as the condition) and cannot gain Void Points until you finish a long rest.

Resource Cost: 10 Void Points

Prerequisite: Master of Absence
