Impenetrable Ego.

While it is conscious and wearing no armor and wielding no shield it adds its Cha modifier to its AC (included above) and saves. Advantage on saves vs. being charmed or frightened.

Bonus Actions

Bend the Spoon.

Chooses one nonmagical weapon it can see within 30' of it and magically warps it. If weapon is being worn or carried creature doing so can prevent warping via DC 16 Wis save. Warped weapon deals only half its normal damage on a hit and creature wielding warped weapon has disadvantage on attack rolls with it. A creature can repair a warped weapon with mending spell or by spending a short rest repairing it with the appropriate tools.

Reactions

Appeal to the Fervent.

When a creature psychophant can see targets it with attack psychophant calls for aid from its followers switching places with friendly creature within 5 ft. of it. Friendly creature becomes target of the attack instead.
