The Ego

Your patron is a powerful entity—your future self, a version of you who has achieved unparalleled mastery over time and magic. Through a profound connection across the temporal fabric, your future self imparts fragments of their immense knowledge and abilities to guide and empower you.

Foresight Bond

1st level Ego feature

You establish a unique bond with your future self, gaining glimpses of their wisdom and foresight. You can tap into brief moments of future knowledge to aid you in making decisions and avoiding dangers.

When you make an attack roll, ability check or saving throw you can treat a roll of 9 or lower on the d20 as a 10.

You can use this ability a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain any expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Echoing Presence

6th level Ego feature

Your connection with your future self strengthens, granting you a haunting presence that reverberates through time. You can temporarily project echoes of your future self to disorient foes and manipulate the flow of combat.

As a bonus action, you create a perfect illusion of yourself that lasts until the start of your next turn. The illusion appears in an unoccupied space that you can see within 30 feet of you.

For the duration, you can cast spells as though you were in the illusion’s space, but you must use your own senses. Additionally, when your illusion is within 5 feet of a creature that can see the illusion, you have advantage on attack rolls against that creature, given how distracting the illusion is to the target.

You can use this ability a number of times equal to your Charisma Modifier (minimum of once), and you regain any expended uses when you finish a short rest.

Parallel Reality

10th level Ego feature

Your understanding of the flow of time begins to expand as you learn to manipulate parallel timelines to your advantage.

While your Echoing Presence is in effect, the next time you fail a Saving Throw the illusion becomes real as a parallel version of yourself suffers the effects in your place before immediately fading from reality.

Severed Future

14th level Ego feature

At the pinnacle of your power, you gain the ability to sever a creature from the flow of time.

As an action, choose a creature that you can see within 60 feet of you. It must make a Charisma saving throw against your warlock spell save DC. On a failed save, it is incapacitated by you. The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. This effect ends early if the creature takes any damage.

Until the effect ends, the creature is frozen in time, it cannot be moved by any means short of a wish spell and does not age.

You must finish a short or long rest before you can use this feature again.
