Taoist Projection

Taoist Projection

Your phantom is actually a projection of your spiritual self, cultivated from decades of following the dao

Manifestation of Balance

At 5th level your Phantom embodies the balance of yin and yang, striking with precision and channeling energies that reflect your inner harmony.

Harmonized Strikes: Your Phantom’s attacks deal an additional 1d6 force damage. This increases to 2d6 at 15th level.

Flowing Reactions: When your Phantom takes damage, you can use your reaction to have it gain temporary hit points equal to your Charisma modifier + your level (minimum of 1) before damage is applied. This can be used a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus per long rest.

Daoist Projection

At 9th level your connection to the Dao enables you to project your Phantom beyond ordinary limits, transcending physical restrictions.

Extended Projection: Your Phantom’s range of movement from you increases to 120 feet.

Phase Through Reality: As a bonus action, your Phantom can become incorporeal until the start of your next turn, allowing it to move through creatures and objects. If it ends its turn inside an object, it is shunted to the nearest unoccupied space and takes 1d10 force damage.

Cycle of Yin and Yang

At 15th level you can channel the cycle of creation and destruction, using your Phantom to manipulate the flow of energy in combat.

Yin-Yang Strike: When your Phantom makes a successful attack, you can choose to either heal you or an ally within 30 feet for half of the damage dealt or inflict a burst of additional damage equal to your Charisma modifier to the target. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus per long rest.

Restorative Meditation: As an action, you can meditate to channel restorative energy through your Phantom, causing you and allies within 30 feet to regain hit points equal to 2d8 + your Charisma modifier. Once used, this feature cannot be used again until you finish a short or long rest.

One With the Dao

At 18th level your Phantom becomes a perfected embodiment of your spiritual path, transcending ordinary limits and channeling powerful energies.

Daoist Sanctuary: As an action, your Phantom can create a 30-foot-radius zone of balance and harmony for 1 minute. Within this zone:

All allies gain resistance to all damage and recover 1d8 hit points at the start of their turns.

Hostile creatures in the area have disadvantage on all saving throws.

Once you use this feature, you cannot do so again until you finish a long rest.
