Holder-Item Link:
Persona Mask
Description:
Through great trauma, stress, or an emotional epiphany of some sort, one awakens to the hidden truth of their being. Their true self. By facing and acknowledging it, their soul suddenly manifests into a new form. A mask used to face hardships and challenges, known as a "Persona". A persona can take on many forms-- famous historical figures, to gods or demons, depending on the personality of the user. Due to this, it is not a physical summoning as most summons use, as they are projections of a user's will.
The physical manifestation of this magic comes in a mask worn by the user, which appears and disappears at whim. However, by removing the mask, the mask transforms into the summon. While a user may summon multiple Personas at a time, they become more physical, depends on the focus or goal of the user. However to use Multiple Personas, one requires a flexible and the ability to forge bonds with other souls, for good or ill. In short, the mask becomes the medium for one to channel the power of the Personas that reside within.
Magic Benefits:
+Character can have up to 3 Summon spells active at once.
+Associated Holder Item receives 1 additional equipment ability that is equal to the character's rank (Up to S).
Unique Abilities:
- Wildcard: Among Persona-Users, there exists a coveted and rare trait called the "Wildcard". It gives the Persona-User the ability to manifest, use, and switch between multiple Personas. This ability grows stronger with the bonds the user makes as well. For one to use this ability, the caster must have a strong soul to maintain their own individuality. The Wildcard allows the Persona-User to switch out and summon Multiple-Personas. To do so, one must have a strong soul to handle the multiple personas it resides-- allowing the caster to have a User-Rank Cap at S passive boost to their total MP.
- "I am Thou, thou art I...":Personas are strength born from one's heart and the will of rebellion, when faced against great oppression. As the Persona User grows as a person, so too does their Persona. This, in turn, causes the line to blur between summon and summoner. As one grows, their power to strengthen their Personas become realized. This gives the user a User-Rank Cap at S passive boost to their Spell Damage used by their Personas. Their inner resolve and will power enhance their magic damage.
- Aria of the Soul:The power of Persona is tied to a space normally inaccessible to people.This place exists between dream and reality, mind and matter. While the mask is the manifestation of the different personas formed in the soul, it is the mysterious place called "The Velvet Room", that connects the caster to the realm of the 'sea of souls'. The music playing there energizes the soul to levels beyond fathom... Time and space mingles as Temperance can travel to an in-between space called the "Velvet Room". Out of combat, she can learn to travel to this space where she can learn more about this realm and seek council with the beings in there. It is also due to the power of the Velvet Room, she can fuse Personas-- allowing summons to use other summons spells via paying the same cost for them. Their appearance might change on the fly.
