At 1st Level, you tend to always be planning your next move. After finishing a Short or Long Rest, you may use this Ability to roll a d20. Record the value rolled. At any point until you finish another Rest, you may replace one of your own d20 rolls with the recorded value, and then add any relevant modifiers. You must choose to use the recorded roll prior to attempting the roll you plan on replacing. Once you have used the recorded roll or once you have finished another Rest, the recorded roll can no longer be used. Finally, you may use 1 Spell Point to use this Ability again after you use the saved roll, immediately gaining a new roll to potentially use at another time.
