Power Links
Booming Blade
Make one melee weapon attack. On a hit, the target takes normal weapon damage and is sheathed in unstable energy until the start of your next turn. If it willingly moves before then, it takes 4 (1d8) thunder damage.
Charge Object
Touch one Tiny unattended object. For the duration, it sheds dim light in a 5-ft. radius, hums faintly, and the first creature that touches it takes force damage equal to your INT modifier. The charge then ends.
Charged Strike
The next weapon attack or unarmed strike you hit with before the start of your next turn deals an extra 1d8 force, lightning, or thunder damage, chosen when you use this power.
Static Imbuement
Touch one weapon, tool, or handheld object. For the duration, the first time each turn it hits a creature or is used to deliver an attack, it deals additional lightning damage equal to your INT modifier.
Kinetic Primer
When a creature you can see within range hits with an attack, add your INT modifier to the damage roll. If the attack pushes, pulls, or knocks the target prone, add your proficiency bonus instead.
Volatile Charge
Touch one unattended object no larger than 5 ft. in any dimension. The next time a creature hits, throws, breaks, or steps on the object, it detonates. Creatures within 5 ft. must make a DEX save, taking 7 (2d6) force damage on a failed save, or half as much on a success.
Stored Impact
When you or an object you are touching takes bludgeoning, piercing, slashing, force, lightning, or thunder damage, reduce the damage by 2d8 + your INT modifier. The next Charged Strike you use before the end of your next turn deals extra damage equal to your INT modifier.
Charged Ammunition
Touch up to three pieces of ammunition, thrown weapons, or Tiny objects. The first time each charged item hits a creature before the effect ends, it deals an extra 2d6 force, lightning, or thunder damage.
Reactive Detonation
When a charged object or charged weapon you can see within range hits a creature or is broken, detonate the charge. Creatures within 10 ft. of the target must make a DEX save, taking 10 (3d6) force damage on a failed save, or half as much on a success.
Energy Capacitor
Gain temporary hit points equal to 2d8 + your INT modifier. While you have these temporary hit points, the first Charged Strike you hit with each turn deals extra damage equal to your proficiency bonus.
Overcharged Weapon

Conductive Transfer
When a creature you can see within range takes force, lightning, or thunder damage from you or a charged object, move half the damage to a second creature within 30 ft. of the first. The first creature takes the remaining damage.

Stored Detonation
Detonate up to three charged objects or creatures you can see within range. Each detonation affects creatures within 10 ft. of the target. A creature caught in multiple detonations makes one DEX save, taking 36 (8d8) force damage on a failed save, or half as much on a success.
