Relentless Endurance. A psionicist with this power has the ability to focus his willpower to extraordinary levels, persevering through conditions that would overcome lesser characters. When activating this power, the psionicist can temporarily ignore accumulated wounds that would reduce him to 0 hit points or less. Due solely to his mental strength, he can force himself to remain conscious and fully active.   He will continue to make his death saving throws, but will stay conscious. If he cumulates 3 failures, he will die instantly. If he rolls a natural 20, he will stabilize and stop making death saving throw, nad his hit points will go to 1 hp if he didn’t heal himself in-between. If, on the other hand, he rolls a natural 1, he collapse on the ground unconscious and is at whatever number of death saving throws he accumulated.   Up until that point, though, he can fight and use his powers normally with absolutely no interruption at all. Smart psionicists will bind their wounds before losing consciousness, or they may never wake up afterward.   Unbending mind. The psionicist can also use his iron will to resist losing consciousness or control of himself through other means. If the effect the psionicist is struggling against normally allows a saving throw, the psionicist gains advantage on his saving throw while iron will is in effect. If the effect does not usually allow the victim a saving throw, the psionicist gains the chance to attempt a saving throw versus the creature’s DC.   Iron will acts as a reflexive power. It does not have to be maintained at all times in order to be effective. If a situation arises in which the psionicist needs the iron will power. he can drop what he is doing to initiate it as a reaction. If he has already been charmed, he can activate it to gain advantage or a saving throw.
