received in return disappears the next time you summon

Reality Shift
Beginning at 11th level, you are capable of summoning
isolated sections of alternate timelines into your own.
As an action on your turn, you may create a sphere of
alternate reality with a diameter of 10ft, Centered on a
point within 30 ft that you can see. This zone lasts for 1
minute, or until you lose concentration. Effects caused
by the zone are contained to the zone, and creatures
or objects that originate from the zone do not leave the
zone unless forced to do so.

When you create this zone, you spend a Time Shard to

roll on the Alternate Reality Table to determine it’s effect.
You may choose to spend additional Time Shards equal
to your intelligence modifier to roll additional times and
choose any of the results.

Temporal Multiplicity
At 17th level, you are no longer limited by the
constraints of a single time line, and can choose
multiple courses of action at once.

Once per long rest, you may spend time shards to create
a number of additional timelines equal to one-half the
number of Time Shards spent, up to a maximum of
three. All timelines originate in your current space
and move on your turn. They can each move and take
actions separately, and start with your current hit points.
Any resources such as Time Shards or spell slots are
shared between all timelines.

Each timeline last for 1 minute. a timeline ends early if it

takes damage from a single source equal to 1/4 of it’s hit
points, or if it is restrained or immobilized. When a ends,
any damage or conditions it suffered are applied to the
remaining timelines.
