Is there anything more delicious than a secret? Select investigators and blackmailers blessed with the
powers of the feywild would contend that nothing
is more desirable than emotion, which can be consumed to fuel magic, or simply leveraged against the
original owner to bend them to your will.
Voiceless Cries
Starting at 3rd level, you passively siphon the background thoughts of the creatures you meet throughout the day, learning what is most on their mind in
that moment. This is considered a form of telepathy,
but gives you no ability to probe for specific information. Questions verbally directed at the target
creature naturally shape the course of its thoughts.
Additionally, you can consume particiularly strong
emotions you detect with this ability. As a bonus action, you can end the Frightened or Charmed condition on a creature within 30 feet of you.
Wingless Flutters
At 9th level, you can the ability to harvest the
thoughts of others, directing them at your whim.
When you sense a thought or emotion (up to 25
words in length) with your Voiceless Cries ability, you
may harvest it with this ability, and it begins to float
around you on the ethereal plane, manifesting in an
abstract, spectral form of your choosing. You can
harvest a number of thoughts each day equal to your
proficiency bonus. Unused thoughts fade away at
dusk each day.
You use an action to cast a version of the sending
spell which expends a harvested thought and delivers it to a target of your choice. This is considered a
form of telepathy.
Toothless bites
Starting at 13th level, you can use your magic to
augment your attacks. You can expend a thought
harvested by your Wingless Flutters ability to deal
an extra 4d6 psychic damage on a successful melee
weapon attack.
Mouthless mutters
At 17th level, you can extrude an aura of fey magic
that causes all creatures within 30 feet of you to
emit audible surface thoughts as per your Voiceless
Cries ability for as long as they remain inside the
area of effect, which remains centered on you until
you choose to end it as a bonus action.
