You may select one of the following when you activate this power. With Concentration, you may adopt two, changing them each round as a bonus action. [LIST] [*]You may grow your limbs to allow you to strike further, gaining a reach of 5x proficiency bonus. [*]Your legs extend, increasing your base speed by 5x your proficiency bonus [*]You may compress yourself into a flattened version approximately 1 inch thick, allowing you to slide under doors, through restraints, and take no damage from falling. [/LIST] By expending your Psionic Focus you gain additional options [LIST] [*]Grow to large size, gaining advantage on Strength ability checks and saving throws. Your weapon attacks deal an additional d4 damage. You gain resistance to bludgeoning damage and vulnerability to slashing. [*]You may Grapple a target even if you do not have a free hand.
