⟜ Requires Breath Control
New in SW5eWakefulness is a self-buff turning exhaustion off and removing the need to eat, drink, or sleep for its duration; eight hours of light activity can count as a long rest, and if exhaustion remains, you risk another level.✨
Ignore exhaustion, skip eating and sleeping, and complete a long rest while on watch — but the power's end risks one more exhaustion level.

You use the Force to control your body's functions. For the duration, you gain the following benefits:
- You ignore the effects of any levels of exhaustion you have.
- You do not need to eat, drink, or sleep. You can't be forced to sleep by any means. To gain the benefits of a long rest, you can spend all 8 hours doing light activity, such as reading and keeping watch.
If you still have any levels of exhaustion when this power ends, you must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, you gain one additional level of exhaustion.
