Antaris Roqirelle/Cogent

Antaris RoqirelleCogent Sheet

 If behind cover or a shield, give up your movement and action to be invulnerable to frontal ranged attacks for that turn.

#### Charge

 If you are within medium range of a target and no closer, you expend your action and a considerable amount of energy to rush over the distance separating you, building up momentum to strike. There must be open ground between you. They cannot evade you so long as they are on the ground. You spend your turn closing the distance, and on your next turn you can attack them if you so wish. Your momentum gives you a +2 to your next attack roll. This ability allows the character to overcome the effects of suppression, though the -2 malnus from it still applies.

#### Shove

 Force the target back 5 feet. Interrupts spellcasting. Requires a weapon the same length or longer than that of your opponent, or a shield.

#### Brace

 You expend your movement, your action, and a considerable amount of energy to brace yourself for an oncoming charge. You subtract 2 from their charge bonus. If you have a weapon which is the same length or longer than your charging opponent, you attack first when they close with you, regardless of your Reflex.

#### Flurry

 As your action, make your normal number of attacks plus one. These do not have to be the same target. Make all of these rolls with -2 to your attack dice.

#### Cleave

 As your action, you cleave with your melee weapon through two enemies, making a regular melee attack against both. You may spend energy to increase the number of enemies which you attack, spending 1 Energy per additional enemy.

### Psionic Training

#### Psionic Sense

 To the psion, the world has an effervescent quality, linked together by a force, a purpose, an intelligence, which few can see with their own eyes. Living things and inanimate objects leave behind traces, imprints, which can be faintly felt in the world which one can touch with one's spirit. These imprints are not neutral, and take the form of feelings rather than objective observations: they carry with them information about intent; intent to harm, intent to help, distress, as if inanimate objects themselves carry with them either an imprint of the person who was using them or they themselves develop a personality which can be felt. The psion learns through training to incorporate this "sixth" sense into their perceptions, sometimes acquiring supernatural levels of awareness and intuition after many decades of practice.
Channeling this ability allows you to use your  Psionic Training proficiency in the place of another perception-oriented roll, such as Perception or Investigation, out to medium range, with the accuracy and detail of the read decreasing dramatically with distance.

#### Empathy

 Living creatures give off psionic auras which can be felt by ordinary people and psions alike. This is why emotions are often infectious, and those with strong emotions often give off strong auras. Psions are particularly susceptible to these auras, to broadcasting them and feeling them. A psion's empathy allows them to feel for another living creature's aura out to medium range, rolling their  Psionic Training against the creature's **Will**. If the roll succeeds, the psion will be able to glean information about the creature's emotional state, but not their thoughts. Psions and non-psions can roll Psionic Training with advantage in place of Will to defend against this.

#### Telepathy

 By closing their eyes and focusing their thoughts on another psion's aura, psions are able to communicate using only their thoughts. Based on your Psionic Training level, you can do this out to 80 m. This is done by extending your consciousness up against another psion's, and they have the choice to allow you past their mental barriers or not. A properly trained psion will be able to compartmentalize their mind and allow you to see what they want you to see.An untrained mind does not know how to lower its defenses, nor to compartmentalize once the other psion is inside. This means that telepathy between untrained or improperly trained minds can lead to serious damage. This is why telepathically communicating with a non-psion is frequently seen as a grievous sin in many cultures.

#### Push

 Hurl a wall of force at the target out to medium range to attempt to push them back. Roll 13 against their defense.
If the attempt succeeds, they are pushed back 5 meters and are staggered. If there is a solid obstacle behind them like a wall, you hurl them into it and may either inflict a minor injury on them or stagger them for the following turn. An object smaller than a basketball can be hurled back as far as you want, within reason.

#### Pull

 Reach out towards the target out to medium range with phantom hands and yank them towards you. Roll 13 against their defense.
If the attempt succeeds, they are pulled towards you 5 meters and are staggered. If there is a solid object in front of them, like a wall, you hurl them into it and may either inflict a minor injury on them or stagger them for the following turn.

#### Retrieve Object

 Reach out towards a small object like a weapon or item you can hold in one hand. Grasp it with phantom fingers and yank it towards you. If nobody challenges you for the object, you pull it into your hand. If the object is being held by someone, or someone challenges you for it telekinetically, you must wrestle over the object. Roll your  Psionic Training proficiency against their  Psionic Training or **Grapple**. You must win twice, or they must win twice, to gain control of the object. You expend 1 Energy for every roll made wrestling over the object. If the object is another character's weapon, this ability consumes a full action rather than a half-action.

#### Lift Object

 Reach out towards a small object like a weapon or item you can hold in one hand. Grasp it with phantom fingers and lift it upwards towards another location you can see within short or medium range. If the object is being held by someone, or someone challenges you for it telekinetically, you must wrestle over the object. Roll your  Psionic Training proficiency against their  Psionic Training or **Grapple**. You must win twice, or they must win twice, to gain control of the object. You expend 1 Energy for every roll made wrestling over the object.

#### Slow Fall

 You push up against the ground to control your momentum as you are falling, canceling any risk involved in a fall. You spend 1 Energy per turn you spend falling. When you land, you will need to recover and will be able to move and take actions on the following turn.

#### Throw Weapon

 You hurl a melee or thrown weapon at a target out to medium range. First, make a telekinetic attack against the target using 10 dice. The target defends with their **Athletics**. If this roll succeeds, make a melee attack with that weapon. The weapon must be picked up again or recalled using Retrieve Object if you intend to continue using it. Small melee weapons thrown in this way roll with 8 dice.

#### Heroic Push

 You surge forward with both hands to push everything in front of you to the ground. All creatures in melee, reach, and short range front of you in a cone must resist a 13 dice attack. If they lose to you by 1, they are staggered. If they lose to you by 3 or more, they are thrown back 5 feet and fall prone. If they were immediately in front of a wall or some other immovable object, they suffer a minor injury.

### Telekinetic Technique

#### Leap

 You push up against the ground telekinetically as you jump, allowing you to leap an impossible distance. This can allow you to cross 2 ranges in a single movement, although it will incur an attack of opportunity from characters with a ranged weapon who can see you. Conversely, this can allow you to leap over a character with a melee weapon without their being able to strike at you. This technique counts as a movement.

#### Levitate

 One creature or loose object of your choice that you can see within range rises vertically during your turn. If you are not interrupted until your next turn, the target is raised up to 20 feet and remains suspended there for as long as you are able to concentrate on the technique, or until you release them. The spell can levitate a target that weighs up to 125 pounds. If you use this ability once in both hands, you can lift a target that weighs up to 250 pounds. You expend 1 Energy for every turn the target is levitated after the first turn. The target can move only by pushing or pulling against a fixed object or surface within reach (such as a wall or a ceiling), which allows it to move as if it were climbing. You can change the target's altitude by up to 20 feet in either direction on your turn. If you are the target, you can move up or down as part of your move. Otherwise, you can use your action to move the target, which must remain within the spell's range. Levitating yourself does not require the use of your hands.

### Athletics Skills

#### Recuperate

 Pass on your turn to recover 2 energy.

#### Jump

 Jump over or scale an obstacle without need for an **Athletics** roll.
