They focus on the melding of primal and psionic abilites to form greater connections between living creatures. Seeing themselves as messengers, translators and peacekeepers, these druids prefer to solve their problems with words when possible.  \nBeginning at 2nd level, you tap into a wellspring of psionic energy within yourself. This energy is represented by your Psionic Energy dice, which are each a d6. You have a number of these dice equal to twice your proficiency bonus, and they fuel various psionic powers you have, which are detailed below.  \nSome of your powers expend the Psionic Energy die they use, as specified in a power’s description, and you can’t use a power if it requires you to use a die when your dice are all expended. You regain all your expended Psionic Energy dice when you finish a long rest. In addition, as a bonus action, you can regain one expended Psionic Energy die, but you can’t do so again until you finish a short or long rest.  \nWhen you reach certain levels in this class, the size of your Psionic Energy dice increases: at 5th level (d8), 11th level (d10), and 17th level (d12). The powers below use your Psionic Energy dice.  \nWild Thoughts-You can draw on your well of psychic energy to make your thoughts audible to others. As a bonus action you can expend a psionic energy die, making your thoughts audible to creatures of your choice within a distance equal to 5 feet multiplied by a roll of the die. This effect lasts a number of hours equal to your wisdom modifier.  \nPrimal Imagery-You can channel your psychic energy through the lense of your primal power. As an action, you can expend a number of psionic energy dice up to your proficiency bonus to conjure the image of one of your wildshapes into the mind of a creature you can see within 60 feet of you. The target must succeed on a wisdom saving throw or take psychic damage equal to the total rolled on the expended dice and be Frightened of you until the beginning of your next turn.  \nStarting when you choose this circle at 2nd level, your psionic abilities manifest in enhanced spellcasting abilities. You gain knowledge of spells that allow you to communicate and command.  \nOnce you gain access to one of these spells, you always have it prepared, and it doesn’t count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. If you gain access to a spell that doesn’t appear on the druid spell list, the spell is nonetheless a druid spell for you.  \n2nd Command, Speak with Animals, Message  \n3rd Detect Thoughts, Suggestion  \n5th Sending, Speak with Plants  \n7th Charm Monster, Dominate Beast  \n9th Commune with Nature, Telepathic Bond  \nAt 6th level, you achieve harmony between your primal and psionic powers. While in wild shape, you can cast your Circle Spells and do not require components. If a spell requires you to deliver a command, message or other communication, you do so telepathically as part of the spell.  \nBy 10th level, your familiarity with the thoughts and fears of the world provide you protection against them. You are resistant to psychic damage and immune to the frightened condition.  \nFrom 14th level, when you rest you are able to reach out into the world and draw on the primal fears of the world. Immediately after you complete a long rest, you can expend and roll a psionic energy die.  \nUntil the end of your next long rest, you can expend two uses of your wild shape to transform into a beast with CR equal to or less than the amount rolled. When you transform in this way, each hostile creature that sees you transform must succeed on a wisdom saving throw or be Frightened of you for the duration of your transformation. Affected creatures may repeat this save at the end of their turns, ending the condition on a success.","cbCaievRoydUe3tK","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaievRoydUe3tK","pdf",867293,"English","# Circle of Connection\n## Psionic Energy Dice and Resting\n## Wild Thoughts\n## Primal Imagery\n## Enhanced Spellcasting\n## Circle Spells in Wild Shape\n## Psychic Protection and Fear-Based Transformation","[{\"question\":\"How do Psionic Energy dice work and how do druids regain them?\",\"answer\":\"Each power uses Psionic Energy dice as specified, and a power can’t be used once all dice are expended.
