Touching the Wheel of Heaven (1st level). Different planes are in ascendance or decline each day, entering or leaving conjunction with various constellations and other celestial phenomena.
After a long rest , if you were able to spend an hour watching the night sky in the past day, roll two times on the following table to determine which planes you are able to connect to. Reroll duplicates. This connection determines the effects of some of your powers. The connection lasts until you finish a long rest, but no more than 24 hours.
Table: Planar Connections
1d8: Roll two times each day.
1 – Jiese, plane of fire.
2 – Caeloon, plane of air.
3 – Av, plane of dreams.
4 – Ostea, plane of water.
5 – Urim, plane of earth.
6 – Mavisha, plane of journeys.

Heavenly Flare (1st level). As an action, you can choose one plane you are attuned to and one creature you can see within 60 feet. You manifest a flare of starlight which deals 2d6 radiant damage to that creature and inflicts an additional effect based on the plane you chose. The damage increases to 3d6 if your character level is 11 or higher, and 4d6 at level 17 or higher. A saving throw against your spell DC negates the damage and extra effect. The type of saving throw depends on which plane you choose.

Cataclysmic Conjunction (3rd level). As an action you can cause a portion of another plane to temporarily merge with reality. Choose a plane you’re attuned to today. A 15-foot-radius burst within 60 feet of you becomes suffused with the essence of that plane.
When you use this ability, creatures in the burst must make a save against your spell DC. The chosen plane determines the type of save, as with heavenly flare. On a failed save, a creature takes 4d6 force damage and 4d6 radiant damage and suffers the same effect as a heavenly flare of that plane. A creature that succeeds its save takes half as much damage and suffers no extra effect.
For the next five minutes, that area is altered, depending on what plane you chose. You cannot use this power again until you take a long rest .
