Spellcasting
Cantrips
At 1st level, you know three cantrips of your choice from the Plane Controller spell list. You learn additional cleric cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Plane Controller table.
Preparing and Casting Spells
The Plane Controller table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your Plane Controller spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. You prepare the list of Plane Controller spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the Plane Controller spell list. When you do so, choose a number of Plane Controller spells equal to your Wisdom modifier + your Plane Controller level (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest.
Spellcasting Ability
Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your Plane Controller spells. You use your Wisdom whenever a cleric spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when Setting the saving throw DC for a Plane Controller spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
Spell Attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier
Ritual Casting
You can cast a Plane Controller spell as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag and you have the spell prepared.
Energy Points

Slot Restoration
Starting from 2nd level, when you finish a short rest, you can use a maximum of a third (rounded down) of your hit points to restore your spell slots. When added, the spell slots levels must equal to or less than what you rolled on the dice.
Signature Spells
At 3rd level, every time you get a spell from a new spell level (e.g. at 5th and 7th level), choose a spell from that spell level. Instead of spending a spell slot, you can expend a number of energy points equal to the spell's level
Plane Shifting
At 18th level, you can cast Banishment and Plane Shift three times without expending a spell slot.
Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.
Change Fate
