D&D 5E Mindwalkers, The Psionic Rogues

This subclass just got out of my head, and I think I've got something nice. With WotC experimenting with the Mystic, I thought it might be fun to have a psionics flavored rogue, considering we already have the Arcane Trickster. Just so people aren't confused, I didn't use actual psionics for this for two reasons. The first, I didn't want to step on the toes of the Mystic too much, which, I know, is fairly hard to do. The second, the psionics system is still rather fluid and subject to change, that, in combination with the fact that it's a system that is possibly even more complex than magic, meant I didn't want to be rebuilding this subclass from the ground up if and when (more likely when) they finally revise the mystic. Plus I did't want to figure out how to distribute psi points for stuff, so...

I like what I have here, and I like the concept of the Mindwalker manipulating targets by literally getting inside their heads. I realize some of you are going to be confused why Unwitting Drone has a farther range than Telepathy, but this is mainly a scouting mechanic/safe exploration mechanic when combined with Little Voice. It's going to be difficult to see through someone you've infiltrated and stay within 60ft of them without getting spotted, especially considering your not aware of your own surroundings while you're using it.

Alright, here we go. The Mindwalker...
