Persona User

In this world, there are those who have a strong enough will to call forth a "Persona", those people are known as Persona Users.

Persona Users are very similar in that regard, but are vastly differently depending on their "Arcana."

## Proficiencies

**Armor:** Refer to your Arcana

**Weapons:** Simple weapon(s) or one martial weapon of your choice

**Tools:** One tool of your choice

**Saving Throws:** Refer to your Arcana

**Skills:** Choose any one + your Arcana Proficiencies

## Equipment

You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background:

* One weapon you are proficient in
* One tool you are proficient in

## Tarot Arcana

At 1st level, choose one of the 19 Arcana related to your character's personality. Your choice grants you the ability to utilize a Persona and other features when you choose it at 1st level. This would also determine which Ability score is your Spellcasting Modifier. You also gain additional features at 3rd, 5th, 9th, 11th, 13th, 17th, and 20th level. [*see Tarot Arcana*]

## Persona Abilities

As a Persona User, you are able to summon your Persona to use Abilities, of which your list of abilities is decided by your Tarot Arcana. Once per turn on your turn, you may forgo a weapon attack to use an ability.

* Your total SP is equal to (3 + Spellcasting modifier) x Persona User level

* Whenever you use an ability, you must expend SP equal to the Ability's cost as stated in the Persona Ability list. You regain all expended SP after a long rest, and you regain SP equal to your level after taking a short rest.

When you gain a level in this class, you can add new abilities from the Persona User Ability list or you may choose any of the Persona User Ability that you already know and replace them with another ability from the list, of which in both circumstances it must be an equal or lesser level of your Max Ability Level as shown on the Persona User table. The number of abilities you may possess are also shown in the Persona User table.

You use your Spellcasting Modifier to determine your Ability Save DC, Ability Attack Modifier, and for Mudo and Hama ability lines, they have a different way to calculate the Save DC. Your Spellcasting modifier is decided by which Arcana you take.

* Ability Save DC = 8 + your Proficiency Bonus + your Spellcasting Modifier.

* Mudo/Hama Ability lines Save DC modifier = your Proficiency Bonus + your Spellcasting Modifier.

* Ability Attack modifier = your Proficiency Bonus + your Spellcasting Modifier.

*(See Persona Abilites)*

## Mind over Matter

Beginning at 4th level, the awakening of your Persona has come to further unlock depths within your inner self, manifesting as power in the physical realm. You'll unlock additional features at the 4th, 7th, 10th and 14th level.

* At the 4th level, you may choose a Fighting Style.
* At the 7th level, you gain expertise in a skill you're proficient in.
* At the 10th level, you can spend time in The Other World, and still be able to use the Night timeslot for other activities without gaining a level of exhaustion.
* At the 14th level, you gain +1 to all your saving throws.

## One More

At 6th level, if you land a critical hit on a hostile creature or deal damage to a hostile creature that is vulnerable to that type of damage, you may attack or use another ability again for this turn (no action required). This feature can only trigger once per round.

## I've Got My Back

At 16th level you gain additional proficiency in a saving throw of your choice.

## Strength of Heart

When you're knocked down to 0 Hit points, roll a saving throw against your spellcasting DC. If you succeed, you come back standing at 1 HP. The DC increases a +5 every time you use this ability and is reset after a long rest.

## Victory Cry

At 18th level, when you roll for initiative, you gain SP equal to your Class level.

## Ultimate Persona Archetype

At 20th level, you gain your Ultimate Persona from your archetype. You gain an ability unique to your arcana that is not on your list of known abilities. This ability does not count against your maximum number of abilities known and its SP cost cannot be reduced. And finally, you may replace two of your Persona's abilities every time you take a long rest.
