3 I. Introduction Welcome to Atlanta s John Marshall Law School (AJMLS) Externship Program. As a participating field placement, you are providing students with a valuable educational opportunity to integrate the theoretical knowledge learned in the classroom with the practical experience of on-the-job training. The following provides an overview of the program and your responsibilities as a supervising attorney. Please contact the Externship Director, Prof. Renata Turner, at (404) ext. 251 or of the Asst. Director, Bridgett Ortega at ext. 127 or with questions, concerns, or requests for additional information. II. Mission The Externship Program s mission is to provide students with field placements that develop professional and practical skills while providing the academic support needed for a successful and meaningful on-the-job performance. III. Externship Requirements and Goals 1 Attorney Supervision All placements must be supervised by a practicing attorney or judge. While students may receive assignments through non-attorney staff members, students cannot undertake projects assigned or supervised solely by non-lawyers. Educational Goals Externships must also meet the school s educational goals. Supervising attorneys are asked to sign a student s individual goal sheet 2 at the beginning of the semester. Weekly timesheets will be used to monitor whether the goals are being met. Students will also complete a placement evaluation at the end of the semester describing how the placement did or did not meet AJMLS and/or their individual educational goals. 1 Externships are governed by the American Bar Association s Standards for Approval of Law Schools, Standard Appendix A.
4 The educational goals of the Program are as follows: 1. Provide professional skills instruction in the following areas: a. problem solving; b. legal analysis and reasoning; c. legal research; d. fact investigation; e. interviewing and counseling; f. negotiation; and g. organization and management. 2. Provide students with opportunities to develop their written and oral communications skills by: a. drafting pleadings, legal memoranda and correspondence; b. drafting transactional documents; and c. representing clients in formal and/or informal judicial and administrative proceedings. 3. Instill fundamental values of the legal profession by: a. acquainting students with the rules governing attorney conduct in their jurisdictions; b. enhancing students abilities to recognize, address and resolve ethical issues in context; and c. emphasizing the lawyer's responsibility to: i. provide competent representation; ii. promote fairness and justice; and iii. engage in an on-going process of professional growth and development. 4. Develop professional practice standards by encouraging students to: a. invite critique by supervisors and peers; b. engage in thoughtful self-assessment; and c. reflect on and extrapolate from placement experiences and observations. 5. Promote students' understanding of the roles played by the various "actors" in the judicial system. 6. Promote students' understanding of the psychological and sociological factors that may affect an attorney's ability to be an effective counselor and advocate for his or her clients. Revised 3/31/14 Page 4
5 7. Provide opportunities for examining the application of legal doctrines learned in the classroom to the resolution of "real world" legal problems. 8. Expose students to the importance of public service and the need for equal access and competent legal representation for all. Non-legal assignments Neither law school policy nor the ABA regulations permit students to earn academic credit for photo-copying, typing or answering the telephone. While an extern may be asked to do one or all of these activities periodically, they cannot be a regular part of the placement experience. Students cannot earn credit for time traveling to and from their placement; however, time spent with the supervising attorney traveling to interviews, depositions, hearings or trainings can be counted toward their required credit hours. Supervisors are encouraged to take students with them to practice-related activities outside the office. Monetary Compensation Students are not allowed to receive any monetary compensation or fringe benefits from a field placement. Students are allowed to receive reimbursements for out-of-pocket expenses. Private firms and attorneys As a general rule, students may only work for a judge, governmental agency, corporate legal department or a non-profit legal agency. Students are allowed to work for a private firm or attorney on a case-by-case basis. Preference will be given to firms that have pro bono cases or projects that the student can work on during their externship. Preference is also given to firms in the following practice areas: immigration law; family law; alternate dispute resolutions; estates, wills and trusts; health law; entertainment and sports law; criminal defense and intellectual property. Any for-profit private sector placement must certify 3 that the student s relationship with the office is that of a trainee and not an employee as defined by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). FLSA allows individuals to participate in private sector externships without compensation if 3 Appendix B. Revised 3/31/14 Page 5
6 1. The externship is similar to training which would be given in an educational environment; 2. The externship is for the benefit of the extern; 3. The extern does not displace regular employees, but works under close supervision of existing staff; 4. The employer derives no immediate advantage from the activities of the extern and on occasion its operations may actually be impeded; 5. The extern is not necessarily entitled to a job at the conclusion of the externship; and 6. The employer and extern understand that the extern is not entitled to wages for the time spent at the externship. If all of the above factors are met, the extern is not an employee subject to FLSA s minimum wage and overtime provisions. IV. Credit Hours and Grading Unlike internships, externships allow a student to receive academic credit. Students in the program during the regular academic year must earn a minimum of two and typically no more than six credit hours per field placement. During the summer semester, a student may earn up to six credits. Students seeking two credit hours must work a minimum of 94 working hours or 6.7 hours a week in a 14-week semester. Students seeking three credit hours must work a minimum of 140 working hours or 10 hours a week. Summer students are allowed to work beyond the seven weeks of summer classes; however, their work must be completed by the second week in August. Students track their hours on weekly timesheets 4 that must be signed by the supervising attorney. Externships are graded on a pass/no credit/fail basis. Grades are based on the supervising attorney s evaluation of the student including but not limited to the student s work habits, work quality, and professionalism. Grades are also determined by the student s participation in externship s classroom component facilitated by the Externship Director. 4 Appendix C. Revised 3/31/14 Page 6
7 V. Student Eligibility Students must have completed all required first year courses; be in good academic standing; and have at least a 2.00 GPA prior to enrolling in the Externship Program. Students accepting placements that involve litigation must be eligible to practice under Georgia s Third-Year Practice Act 5, which requires a student to be regularly enrolled and in good standing in a law school in Georgia and to have satisfactorily completed at least two-thirds of the requirements for the first professional degree in law, a J.D. or its equivalent, in not less than four semesters or six quarters of residence. A Dean s Certificate will be sent directly to the supervising attorney once the above requirements are verified. Rising third-year students working at litigation placements the summer before their third year will be certified after spring semester grades are submitted and required credit hours are verified. VI. Site Visits AJMLS requires site visits placement offices as required by the ABA standards. The Externship Director will contact supervising attorneys to arrange a site visit, when necessary, at a mutually agreed upon time. VII. Evaluations and Feedback Supervising attorneys are encouraged to give meaningful feedback to students throughout the externship. Attorneys should discuss evaluations with the student and offer suggestions for improvement. The attorney must complete two evaluations before the student can receive academic credit. The externs are responsible for getting the evaluation forms to their supervising attorneys when due. Mid-term evaluations 6 are due seven (7) weeks into the semester. Final evaluations 7 are due at the end of the semester. Supervising attorneys should contact the Externship Director immediately if there are any concerns with a student s behavior, conduct, or work product. 5 Georgia Supreme Court Rule Appendix D. 7 Appendix E.

8 VIII. Non-Discrimination Policy It is the policy of Atlanta s John Marshall Law School not to discriminate on the basis of sex, physical handicap, disability, race, age, color, religion, national or ethnic origin, marital status, or sexual or affectional preference in its educational programs, admissions programs, employment practices, financial aid, or other school- administered programs. AJMLS also seeks to create and maintain an academic environment in which all members of the community are free from unlawful harassment. This environment includes field placements that participate in the externship program. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, CONCERNS OR SUGGESSTIONS, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO CONTACT US. Prof. Renata D.

|Tokomo Nakamichi's Pattern Magic 2 - 'Fundamentals'
|My Tessuti Fabric-Bought them on sale, were still $100!
When it was first announced I took advantage of the fabric sale they were having online at the time, and choose all my fabric and put down the $100 bucks. Blergh. What an expensive amount of fabric! I NEVER ever spend that much.
And then guess what happened? I pretty much forgot about it all and then realised with 13 days to go! There was no way I could justify not entering, seeing as I had spent so so much on fabric!!
From the beginning I intended on using the principles from the pictured above Pattern Magic 2 book. I thought the contrast would work well and I also really loved the flared/peplum look it created. Making the pattern was fun, and it turns out when I connect my skirt and blouse block and make a fitted dress block, it fits quite well! Yippee! I haven't ever made myself a pencil dress or anything tight fitting around the underside, but I'm thinking now I will make a wearable toile and see how it goes!
|After slicing up the toile
I cut up all the pieces, made sure I adhered to the notches. I didn' put it back onto paper and add seam allowance, instead I re pinned the pieces on to the fabric and added seam allowance as I sewed.

PDAC 2018 Highlights Graphite as a key ingredient in batteries for electric vehicles
While gold copper zinc silver and base metals are the usual stars of mining conventions like PDAC 2018, the last couple of years so-called green minerals like cobalt, lithium and this year graphite have drawn considerable attention.
Why? Because those three elements are critical for the development of rechargeable electric car batteries that poor the electric car of the near future. Some are already on the road, but more quantities of these elements are needed if the electric car is to be the dominate vehicle on the streets.
This year, Gregory Bowe, President and CEO of Northern Graphite, that is working to bring into production their Bissett Creek mine off Highway 17 near Renfrew Ontario gave a presentation at one of the PDAC 2018 Investor Forums.
Northern Graphite Corporation holds 100 percent ownership in the Bissett Creek mining leases and surrounding claims which are located 17km from the Trans Canada Highway between the cities of Ottawa and North Bay, Ontario, Canada. The site can be accessed by a good quality all weather road and labor, power, rail lines and water are all readily available. The project is five hours from the port of Montreal.
"Bissett Creek not only has attractive economics at current prices but the multi phase development approach reduces upfront capital requirements and provides the ability to expand as demand from the battery and EV markets grow", commented Gregory Bowes, CEO. He added: "the Project also has very low marketing risk because it is "right- sized" for the current market and production will be almost entirely large/XL/XXL flake with no fines."
Graphite and diamonds are the only two naturally formed polymers of carbon. Graphite is essentially a two-dimensional, planar crystal structure whereas diamonds are a three-dimensional structure. Graphite is an excellent conductor of heat and electricity and has the highest natural strength and stiffness of any material. It maintains its strength and stability to temperatures more than 3,600°C and is very resistant to chemical attack. At the same time, it is one of the lightest of all reinforcing agents and has high natural lubricity.
What is graphite used for?
Traditional demand for graphite is largely tied to the steel industry where it is used as a liner for ladles and crucibles, as a component in bricks which line furnaces ("refractories"), and as an agent to increase the carbon content of steel. In the automotive industry it is used in brake linings, gaskets and clutch materials. Graphite also has a myriad of other uses in batteries, thermal management in consumer electronics, lubricants, fire retardants, and reinforcements in plastics.
The market for graphite is approximately one million tonnes per year of which 60 percent is flake and 40 percent is amorphous. Amorphous graphite is a low value, low growth product. Only flake graphite which can be economically rounded and upgraded to 99.95 percent purity is suitable for making Li ion batteries. The graphite market is far larger than the markets for magnesium, molybdenum cobalt, tungsten, lithium and rare earths combined.
Industrial demand for flake graphite was growing at about 5 per cent per annum up until 2012 due to the ongoing industrialization of China, India and other emerging economies. Demand for amorphous graphite is declining. Since then flake demand has levelled off or declined, largely due to the slowdown in China and a lack of growth elsewhere in the world. The "blue sky" for the graphite industry is the incremental demand being created by several green initiatives including Li ion batteries, fuel cells, flow batteries and nuclear energy. Many of these applications have the potential to consume more graphite that all current uses combined.
In the last five or six years for example, lithium ion batteries have gone from a small part of the graphite market to where they now account for about a third of demand. The lithium ion battery industry continues to grow at over 20% per year even with the slow adoption of EVs.

The Effect of a Listening Skills Program on the Reading Comprehension of Fourth Grade Students.
Hoffman, Sybil M.
A study was conducted to determine the effect of a program of listening skills on the reading comprehension of fourth grade students. After a pretest, an experimental group of 12 boys and 12 girls was selected randomly from four classrooms and a control group was selected with matched pretest scores. The experimental group was taught using "Listening Comprehension Skills: Level B," published by the Alameda County Schools, California, while the control group was involved in language arts activities. Both groups participated in class twice a week in one half hour sessions over a period of eight weeks. The reading comprehension subtest of the California Achievement Test was used as a posttest. Results of the study showed that the reading comprehension of both boys and girls in the experimental group improved significantly through instruction in the "Listening Comprehension Skills" program.

History Continuous growth for more than 25 years
Today's Blumenbecker Technik GmbH grew out of a business that had once been part of the former East Germany's Agrodienst organisation and which, after German reunification, found itself without orders and looking for a new owner.
Detlef Schulz, former CEO of Blumenbecker Technik and at that time head of the Crane Service and Lifting Work Platforms Department in Beckum, quickly recognised the potential that offered itself for Blumenbecker. Through the design and production of special lifting platforms, the people in Schafstädt demonstrated their capabilities, with the result that the firm was officially taken over by Blumenbecker in June 1991. Almost at the same time, it was joined by the Rüdersdorf facility, followed a good year later by the operation in Zeitz. The last branch establishment to be set up to date was that in Chemnitz.
Through specialising in niche markets while also offering a wide range of capabilities, Blumenbecker Technik GmbH has grown rapidly since its foundation. This is also reflected in the recent addition of land to the company's site and the enlargement of an office building at the headquarters in Schafstädt.

Gas Composition Testing
ISO/IEC 17025:Chemical Testing
The Fast and Slow desorption methods both involve the determination of Q1 (lost gas),
Q2 (desorbed gas) and Q3 (residual gas, i.e. gas released on crushing). The sum of these three components is the "Measured Gas Content," also known as "Qm" as defined in AS 3980-1999.
Q1 (lost gas) cannot be measured but is estimated based on field gas desorption measurements,
i.e. on-site gas measurements are taken in the field as soon as the core sample has been drilled and placed inside of a canister.
The term 'Q1 readings' is commonly used to distinguish between gas desorption measurements taken in the field and those taken in the laboratory. Though technically speaking, Q1 readings form part of the Q2 measurements.
Q2 readings are taken in our laboratory. GeoGAS customers can choose between the Fast or Slow desorption method and we can advise you on which method best suits your testing needs.
Q3 readings are taken in our laboratory. During this process, two 150g representative sub-samples are taken from the core and crushed for Q3 determination. GeoGAS uses high quality Rocklab Ring Mills that have been specially modified for our gas testing needs.

Pictures From Inside
Here are some pictures I shot inside the KSBY
The KSBY Control Room
You can see the cameraman in the studio through the door in the upper left, the news producer is in the lower left controlling the teleprompter, and Jeff is directing from the main control board in the center. Note the clock indicates they were about 25 minutes in to the six o'clock news when this photo was taken.
News Anchor Adrienne Moore
The grey box facing her is the teleprompter, which is attached to the camera and displays the script she reads from. Note the red light on top of the teleprompter, which lights up if that camera is on the air. The sheet hanging on the back of the camera shows the cameraman the schedule of stories and commercial breaks.
The Weather Man, Rob Carlmark
To the viewers it looks like he is standing in front of a weather map, but he really just works with a green screen and the effect is created electronically. Note the TV monitors in front and to the right of him so he can see the weather graphics that the viewers are seeing. The cameraman is standing in the shadows in the left of the picture, ready to give the weatherman hand signals to let him know when he is running out of time.
Jeff in the control room operating the video switcher
With his right hand he can switch between the various cameras and other video sources, and with his left hand he can adjust the various electronic effects.
The headset allows him to talk to the cameraman, video tape operator, and audio mixer. The microphone on the gooseneck is in case he needs to talk to the news anchor or weather man.
Another look at the control room
This gives you a pretty good look at the full range of equipment that Jeff operates during a newscast.

Australian professional snowboarder, Jye Kearney, gets thrown into an adventure that bucks him from the norm of his usual routine. From Christchurch Airport, the crew make their way to Mount Hutt, Canterbury's largest resort for some mind boggling spring park wizardry. The atmosphere changes rapidly, however, when the biggest storm of the year hits and blankets the whole Canterbury region with a foot of fresh snow. This leads the crew to Mount Olympus, where Jye recounts his tale of riding a 'nutcracker' rope tow.
Needless to say, Jye is once again smiling from ear to ear as the crew build some interesting features and get creative in arguably one of the most beautiful places to snowboard Downunder. Spring in the Southern Hemi rules!

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is asking for new input on what kind of information would be useful to consumers as they choose their broadband service.
"Our biggest goal here is to establish a general framework that consumers can use to really understand what they are looking at when they go to buy Internet service," Joel Gurin, the FCC consumer bureau chief, said in an interview.
"We want people to understand megabits per second as easily as miles per gallon," he said.
Consumers can benefit from information about their service beyond knowing exactly how fast their connection is, said Gurin.
Latency, for instance, measures the time it takes for an action to get through the network, which can matter to gamers, according to Gurin. Jitter, which is exactly it sounds like, can matter when it comes to online video, he said.
Consumers sometimes wind up buying Internet service that is faster than they need, and overpaying for it, Gurin said; other times, they buy service that isn't fast enough for their needs.
Gurin said a range of industry participants is helping the FCC on its initiative. The agency is hoping for input from consumers, application developers and service providers, he said.

Besides Western style hotels and pensions, a variety of uniquely Japanese style accommodations can be found in Japan, such as ryokan and minshuku.
Most of Japan's major cities offer efficient public transportation networks, and are connected with each other by the shinkansen, the Japanese bullet train.
The Japanese cuisine is one of Japan's greatest attractions. A great variety of Japanese cuisine and food from around the world can be enjoyed in Japan.
Japan offers an abundance of gastronomical delights with a boundless variety of regional and seasonal dishes as well as international cuisine. Restaurants range from mobile food stands to centuries old ryotei, atmospheric drinking places, seasonally erected terraces over rivers, cheap chain shops and unique theme restaurants about ninja and robots. Many restaurants are specialized in a single type of dish, while others offer a variety of dishes.
Religion in Japan
Shinto is as old as the Japanese culture, while Buddhism was imported from the mainland in the 6th century. Since then, the two religions have been co-existing relatively harmoniously and have even complemented each other to a certain degree. Most Japanese consider themselves Buddhist, Shintoist or both. Religion does not play a big role in the everyday life of most Japanese people today. The average person typically follows the religious rituals at ceremonies like birth, weddings and funerals, may visit a shrine or temple on New Year and participates at local festivals (matsuri), most of which have a religious background.
Legend attributes the creation of Japan to the sun goddess, from whom the emperors were descended. The first of them was Jimmu, supposed to have ascended the throne in 660 B.C. , a tradition that constituted official doctrine until 1945.
Recorded Japanese history begins in approximately A.D. 400, when the Yamato clan, eventually based in Kyoto, managed to gain control of other family groups in central and western Japan. Contact with Korea introduced Buddhism to Japan at about this time. Through the 700s Japan was much influenced by China, and the Yamato clan set up an imperial court similar to that of China. In the ensuing centuries, the authority of the imperial court was undermined as powerful gentry families vied for control.
At the same time, warrior clans were rising to prominence as a distinct class known as samurai. In 1192, the Minamoto clan set up a military government under their leader, Yoritomo. He was designated shogun (military dictator). For the following 700 years, shoguns from a succession of clans ruled in Japan, while the imperial court existed in relative obscurity.
First contact with the West came in about 1542, when a Portuguese ship off course arrived in Japanese waters. Portuguese traders, Jesuit missionaries, and Spanish, Dutch, and English traders followed. Suspicious of Christianity and of Portuguese support of a local Japanese revolt, the shoguns of the Tokugawa period (1603–1867) prohibited all trade with foreign countries; only a Dutch trading post at Nagasaki was permitted. Western attempts to renew trading relations failed until 1853, when Commodore Matthew Perry sailed an American fleet into Tokyo Bay. Trade with the West was forced upon Japan under terms less than favorable to the Japanese. Strife caused by these actions brought down the feudal world of the shoguns. In 1868, the emperor Meiji came to the throne, and the shogun system was abolished.

I entered a poetry contest.
I submitted three poems; Bittersweet Sacrifices, Oh How You've Grown, and Rain. I wasn't sure which of these would get the best response, if any response at all. I went into this contest excitedly, putting my work into the world. I didn't expect to hear anything back from it. It was simply a first time experience and I was elated to participate.
One month later, I received an email.
"Congratulations! You are a winner in the poetry contest!"
My heart dropped. Me? I won? My work, my writing, one of my poems won a contest? I reread this email who knows how many times. It was confirmed. I had won 3rd place in the 9th-10th grade category.
Fast forward to about a week later.
The award ceremony.
Front row with my dad and little sister Elise. Wearing my 70s denim button up skirt and royal blue tank with a white sweater and ankle boots. Surrounded by other award winning poets. Food.
The judges and librarians went through the judging process and I realized just how bizarre and amazing it was that I had been selected as a winner.
There had been hundreds of entries and they had been gone through and through and through and mine made it past each and every time. My poem made it past hundreds of others and made people feel something that provoked them to keep it.
After they announced the winners and everyone was given their awards, we went up and read our poems. After that, I had several people come up to me and tell me how touching my poem was and that it brought them to tears. I was so in shock that I didn't know what to do, so I simply said "I don't know whether to say 'thank you' or 'I'm sorry'" with a slight laugh. The whole room was filled with loving, talented, and caring people and I was so honored to be there.
I am so happy that I entered the poetry contest and that I have had this marvelous experience.
Hey guys.
Guess what.
I am an award winning poet.

A Little About Belly dance...
A beautiful and distinct ancient dance form, belly dance or raks (raqs) sharki (also called danse orientale), has a deep history dating back thousands of years in the Middle East. It is a dance of celebration and is done by women of all shapes and sizes. It is a dance of beauty and feminitity and embraces and celebrates the true beauty of the woman.
Although most often characterized by sharp, sensual and isolated movements of the torso and hips, belly dance is performed using every body muscle- including those in the arms and hands.
Not only is belly dance fun to watch and to learn, but it has many health benefits as well. It has a healing quality (physical and emotional), improves muscle tone and flexibility, promotes healthy weight loss, improves balance and coordination, builds stamina and strength, helps to maintain a healthy metabolism and can help to condition the body for childbirth.
One of the biggest myths is that belly dance is a dance of seduction performed to and for male audiences. In fact, bellydance tradition handed down through generations of women states that belly dance originated as a dance to celebrate and promote fertility and healthy childbirths. It was a dance to celebrate mother earth to many. It is thought that belly dance aides women in preparing their abdominal muscles for labor and even today, in places accross the Middle East and in North Africa, many of these movements are used in birthing rituals. In countries across the globe, many couples hire belly dancers to perform at their weddings as it is thought to bless the couple with a future of fertility and healthy babies/children.
Moreover, in the harem sub-culture, it is noted that women would enetertain each other by belly dancing for one another. Contrary to what many believe, the women in the harems would rarerly even see the king or sultan.

Resolving Disputes - A New Approach
Recently two clients, one a tenant, another a landlord, asked me to prepare an appraisal of the rent that was applicable on their office building. Of course, I had to decline both.
BUT, I suggested that I could do an appraisal that could determine the rate for them. Both sides wanted:
- To have a say;
- To be comfortable with the conclusion.
I developed the following process:
- Each party made a presentation to the arbitrator;
- Arbitrator asked questions and undertook his own research;
- DRAFT report was prepared by the arbitrator/appraiser;
- Hearing to comment on the report and issues they disagreed with was held;
- Final report completed;
- Decision binding.
The concept was significantly cheaper and both sides had an opportunity to comment on the possible outcome.
Why is that important? I recently was involved in an arbitration where the arbitrator was completely off track, showing a total misunderstanding of the issues. We had no opportunity to redirect him.
If this approach does not suit you, even though it is more cost effective, I can act as the Arbitrator under the usual process with appraisers providing reports. The arbitration can be written submission or by way of oral hearing.

The dour destroyers, champions of entropy, are rightfully feared bringers of decay and entropy—but they are blunt hammers that crush resistance, tools that dare not ask. There are some dvergr that have delved deeper into the nihilist philosophy of the dour destroyers, that have truly experienced the ramifications of the endtimes, entropy, the final landscape of endless, bleak desolation.
These philosopher-warlocks are often called "Executioners of the Grand Void," for that is how they see themselves. There is no response, no communion with the Grand Void; it has no agenda, it does not reply; instead, the very absence of a response, the sheer manifestation of bleak, cosmic indifference, seems to grant powers to the fanatic, magical killers that seek to hasten its arrival.
Code of Conduct: An executioner of the grand void has to follow one set of tenets chosen from those of the dour destroyer.
Expanded Spell List
The Grand Void does not grant you an expanded spell list in the traditional sense; by pondering its inevitability, you may still choose from an expanded list of spells when you learn a new warlock spell. The following spells are added to the warlock spell list for you.
|Spell Level
|detect dwarves, false life
|calm emotions, ray of enfeeblement
|bestow curse, slow
|black tentacles, confusion
|cloudkill, planar binding
Witness of the Void
Starting at 1st level, you have witnessed the Grand Void. You have had a vision of the ultimate, bleak desolation and its dusty, lifeless vistas. This may shake other to their core, but it fortifies your resolve. You gain advantage on saving throws to resist the charmed and frightened conditions.
Death: Glorious, Inevitable
At 6th level, you can channel the bleak powers of the Grand Void to hamper attempts to prolong the inevitable. Whenever a creature that you can see within 60 feet of you is healed, you may use your reaction to make a ranged spell attack against the target. If you hit, you negate the attempt to heal the target. You may use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier. You regain all expended uses upon finishing a long rest.
Witness the End
Beginning at 10th level, you may attempt to entrap their victims in a vision of utter annihilation, sharing a glimpse of the splendor the Grand Void.
As an action, make a melee spell attack. If the attack hits, the target must succeed a Wisdom saving throw against your spell save DC or fall unconscious for a number of rounds equal to your Charisma modifier, as you send its mind to wander the Grand Void. Each round the target spends thus feels like a century. Upon being sent to the Grand Void, the target takes 2d8 psychic damage. Each additional round spent wandering the Grand Void doubles this damage: 4d8 on the second round, 8d8 on the third, 16d8 on the fourth, etc. The target may attempt a new saving throw at the end of each of her turns to wake up. Upon awakening, the target also suffers from a number of levels of exhaustion equal to the rounds spent walking the Grand Void, up to a maximum of 3. As this exhaustion is purely mental, the level of exhaustion of the target cannot be increased beyond 3 by this feature. Once you have used this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.
To Walk the Bleak Wasteland
Starting at 14th level, you have walked an infinite number of lifetimes through the endless desolation of the Grand Void. Its utter hopelessness has suffused every fiber of your being and grants you strength. You become immune to the frightened and charmed conditions. Furthermore, you have transcended the need to eat or drink and ignore the effects of the first two levels of exhaustion.
