Psychic Bond
When you choose this domain at 1st level, you can tie yourself and your companions with a Psychic Bond. As an action you can select a creature within 30 feet who are able to understand a language and add that creature to your psychic bond. You and all who you have a psychic bond with can communicate telepathically even without a shared language. The effect ends for an ally if they end their turn more than 100 feet times your Proficency Bonus away from you.
You can simultaneously bond a number of creatures up to your cleric level. If you exceed this number, you lose the bond with the creatures furthest away from you until you have a bond with a legal number of creatures. An ally can take an action to end the psychic bond for themselves and you can take an action to end the bond with any targets of your choice.
Channel Divinity: Psionic Spell
At 2nd level you can Channel Divinity inwards to make your spells psionic.
- Use this when you cast a spell. That spell and all spells you cast in the next minute become psionic spells. A psionic spell requires no verbal or somatic components, and it only requires a material components if that component is consumed by the spell.
Channel Divinity: Bond Magic

Psychic Shield Wall
Starting at 17th level, you and allies in your Psychic Bond gain resistance to psychic damage and advantage on saving throws against effects that would inflict psychic damage or give the charmed or frightened condition.
Designer's Notes
Psychic power always had mutual support as one of its aspects. This is my attempt to add that to the game.
