Save DC 14Background:Feature: City SecretsYou know the secret patterns and flow to cities and can find passages through the urban sprawl that others would miss.  When not in combat you (and companions you lead) can travel between any two locations in the city twice as fast as your normal speed would allow.Class:[sblock]PsionicsPsi Points: 17 (Limit: 3)Mystical Recovery:Starting at 2nd level, you draw vigor from the psi energy you use to power psionic disciplines associated with your Mystic Order.Whenever you spend psi points on a psionic discipline of your order, you regain hit points equal to your Intelligence modifier if your current hit point total equals half your hit point maximum or less.Strength of Mind:Even the simplest psionic techniques require a deep understanding of how psionic energy can augment mind and body. This understanding allows you to alter your defenses to better deal with threats.Starting  at  4th  level,  you  can  replace  your proficiency in Wisdom saving throws whenever you finish a short or long rest. To do so, choose Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, or Charisma. You gain proficiency in saves using that ability, instead of Wisdom. This change lasts until you finish your next short or long rest.Mystic Order (Order of the Awakened)Mind Mastery:At 1st level, you gain the mind meld and thought spear psionic talents (these are in addition to the talents you gain in the Mystic table).  If you already have either one, you can pick any other talent to replace it.Awakened Expertise:Starting at 1st level, your focused mental training grants you extended knowledge.  You gain proficiency in two skills of your choice.  In addition, choose one skill you are proficient in.  Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses that skill.Psionic Investigation:At 3rd level, you can focus your mind to read the psionic imprint left on an object. If you hold an object and concentrate on it for 10 minutes (as if concentrating on a psionic discipline), you learn a few basic facts about it. You gain a mental image from the object’s point of view, showing the last creature to hold the object, regardless of how long ago it was last handled. You also learn of any events that have occurred within 20 feet of the object within the past 24 hours. The events you perceive unfold from the object’s perspective. You see and hear such events as if you were there, but can’t use other senses. Additionally, you can embed an intangible psionic sensor within the object. For the next 24 hours, you can use an action to learn the object’s location relative to you (its distance and direction) and to look at the object’s surroundings from its point of view as if you were there. This perception lasts until the start of your next turn.[/sblock]EQUIPMENT[sblock]Small KnifeMap of the city I grew up inPet spiderSet of common clothesA belt pouchSpear +1MaceExplorer’s PackStudded LeatherDagger x 5Thieves’ toolsDisguise KitForgery KitAcid (vial) x4Alchemist’s fire (flask) x2Poison, basic (vial) x3Clothes, fineClothes, Traveler’sPotion of Healing x4Potion of Greater Healing x3Caltrops (bag of 20)Belt of the Giant Strength (Hill Giant)Chest w/ Lock23 pp 16 gp[/sblock]DESCRIPTIONAge: 35Height: 5’ 9Weight:  153 lbsEyes: PurpleSkin: BlackHair: SilverDescription: Jareth is tall and lithe.  His parentage is apparent by his dark skin, silver hair and deep purple eyes.  This is why he wears a deep hooded cloak to hide his features.  The most notable feature is a nasty scar which encircles the front of his neck.  His voice is raspy and raw and it seems to hurt when he speaks much above a whisper.Talents: (Save DC: 15)[sblock]Mind Meld:As a bonus action, you can communicate telepathically with one creature you can see within 120 feet of you. You don’t need to share a language with a creature for it to understand your telepathic utterances, and the creature understands you even if it lacks a language. You can allow a creature to respond to you telepathically, but it must understand at least one language in order to communicate this way. This ability to communicate lasts until the start of your next turn. You can’t communicate with an unwilling creature.Thought Spear:As an action, you psychically strike one creature that you can see within 120 feet of you.

This process is harmless to you and the weapon. Until the weapon reappears, it is inaccessible, as are any of its properties. You can have only one weapon at a time affected in this way. You can summon the weapon to your hand as a bonus action. It reappears in your space if you are unconscious or dead.Mind Thrust:As an action, you blast psychic energy at one creature that you can see within 5 feet of you. The target must succeed on an Intelligence saving throw or take 1d6 psychic damage. If the target takes any of this damage, you can push it up to 10 feet away from you. The talent’s damage increases by 1d6 when you reach 5th level (2d6), 11th level (3d6), and 17th level (4d6).[/sblock]Disciplines: (Save DC: 15)[sblock]Conquering MindLesser discipline (awakened)By channeling psionic power, you gain the ability to control other creatures by substituting your will for their own.Psychic Focus:While focused on this discipline, you gain proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Deception, Intimidation, Performance, or Persuasion. You can change the chosen skill each time you apply your focus to this discipline.Exacting Query (2):As an action, you target a creature that you can see within 120 feet of you.

On a successful save, the target is unaffected, and you can’t use this ability on it again until you finish a long rest.Occluded Mind (2):As an action, you target a creature that you can see within 120 feet of you.

On a successful save, the target is unaffected, and you can’t use this ability on it again until you finish a long rest.Broken Will (5):As an action, you target a creature that you can see within 120 feet of you. The target must make an Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save, the target is charmed until the end of its next turn, during which you choose its movement and action. On a successful save, the target is unaffected, and you can’t use this ability on that creature again until you finish a long rest.Psychic Grip (7, C):As an action, you target a creature you can see. The target must make an Intelligence saving throw. On a failed save, you overload the creature with psychic energy. The target is paralyzed for 1 minute, but at the end of each of its turns it can make another Intelligence saving throw. On a success, this effect ends. On a failure, you can use your reaction to force the target to move up to half its speed, despite being paralyzed.Third EyeLesser discipline (awakened)This discipline can open a third eye within your mind, opening your doors of perception.Psychic Focus:While focused on this discipline, you have blindsight with a radius of 30 feet.Tremorsense (1, C):As a bonus action, you gain tremorsense with a radius of 30 feet for up to 1 minute.Unwavering Eye (1, C):As a bonus action, you gain advantage on Wisdom checks for up to 1 minute.Truesight (5, C):As a bonus action, you gain truesight with a radius of 30 feet for up to 1 minute.Iron Durability:Lesser discipline (immortal)This discipline grants you unmatched toughness and resilience on the battlefield.

The rich need to be shown what life and death are like in the gutters. (Evil)Bonds: I escaped my life of poverty by robbing an important person, and I’m wanted for it.Flaws: I will never fully trust anyone other than myself.BACKGROUND Abandoned by his mother and left for dead Jareth only survived because an old woman took pity on the infant despite his heritage.  The woman kept him sheltered to protect him.  That didn’t protect her.  The city watch came for her.  She was charged with treason and they were both hung from the city walls.  He was only 7.  He cursed those who killed his only constant and swore vengeance on his dying breath.  As the world turned black he felt falling and something speaking to him.  The Whispered One spared his life in return for service.  He grew up in the gutters of the city hidden in the shadows.  He looked inward meditating as the Dying King commanded.  The secrets he found there gave him the power to take his vengeance.  Take vengeance he did.  One by one those that took him and tried him were found eyes staring blankly screaming in fear clawing at their own faces.  But it wasn’t enough they would all pay for what they had done.  And his master would show him how it would be done.</blockquote>
