Tier 0ActionAt-Will

Marked Opening

Point at a target within range and glimpse a weakness in its defenses. On your next turn, you gain advantage on your first attack roll against that target, provided this effect has not ended. If the attack hits, it deals additional damage equal to your proficiency bonus.

Tier 0ActionAt-Will

Omen

Read a small sign in the immediate moment. Ask the GM whether one simple action you are about to take appears favorable, dangerous, unclear, or mixed. The answer reflects the current situation and does not account for choices made afterward.

Choose a familiar location within range or a location you can clearly describe. You briefly see and hear from a fixed point in that location as if standing there. The vision is hazy beyond 30 ft. and cannot pass through magical concealment.

Tier 1ActionAt-Will
