class features:
Chaos Weapon At 1st level, you gain control over a magical sentient weapon called a Chaos Weapon. A Chaos Weapon has the properties of any melee weapon of your choice, and you are proficient with it. You can summon or shun the blade on a plane of chaos by using your bonus action. You can use your Charisma, instead of Dexterity or Strength for attacks and damage rolls with the chaos weapon. In addition, you gain a bonus of +1 on attacks and damage rolls with this weapon. The bonus increases to +2 at 10th level and +3 at 18th level. Attacks made with this weapon ignore resistance and immunity to non-magical damage. In addition, whenever you cause additional damage with your Chaos Die on an attack with this weapon, you can choose to cause additional damage equal to the weapon's type, instead of rolling for damage. The weapon is a construct, and have the Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma scores equal 8 + your proficiency bonus. The weapon alignment is either Chaotic Neutral, Chaotic Evil or Chaotic Good (the one closer to the wielder's alignment) and it has a blindsight up to a range of 10 feet. The sword know all languages you know, but it communicate by telepathy, up to a range of 120 feet. While wielding the sword, you can communicate with creatures that share a language with you via telepathy, up to that distance. Chaos Harvester Starting at 1st level, you can channel the power of primordial chaos, using its power. You gain a pool of chaos dice equal to your proficiency bonus, that recharges whenever you finish a short or a long rest. Whenever you make an attack roll, ability check or saving throw, you can spend one die from the pool and add to the result, changing the outcome as you manipulate the forces of chaos to alter reality. You can also spend any amount of chaos dice you have when you hit a creature with an attack roll, to cause additional damage equal to the number rolled on the dice. Your chaos die is a d6, but it increases in size as you gain levels in this class: becomes a d8 at 5th level, a d10 at 11th level and a d12 at 17th level. You must roll one chaos die to determine the damage type. The damage type depends on the number rolled on the die, according to the table below: Chaos Die Damage Type
Anarchic Defense
Starting at 2nd level, you can manipulate the forces of chaos to protect you from harm. Whenever you take damage, you can use your reaction to reduce the damage taken by a roll of your Chaos Die + your Charisma modifier. Doing so don't spend the die.
Chaotic Release
Also at 2nd level, you can unleash a chaotic blast of destruction using your Action. You must spend a number of Chaos Dice up to your proficiency bonus and roll it. All creatures in a 30-foot line must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw, or take damage equal to the number rolled on the dice, or half as much on a success.
Roll another die to determine the damage type.
Reality Warp
At 3rd level, you can use your bonus action to shift between places on the material plane, being able to teleport to an unoccupied place you can see within a distance equal to your movement speed. Doing so reduces your movement speed by the distance teleported.
You can't use this feature if you have no Chaos Dice left, but using this feature doesn't cost any die.
