ShadowRun.DnD5

These rules are not an attempt to convert everything about Shadowrun into DnD5th but to instead capture the fell of the setting.

BASIC HOUSERULES

Character Classes: all characters (not just Heroic characters) gain the following: base Proficiency Bonus, a Feat at 1st level, then another Feat every 2 levels afterwards (3, 5, 7, etc.), and Attribute Bonus of +2 to one Attribute or a +1 to two different Attributes every 4 levels, starting at 4th (4, 8, 12, etc.). There are seven Heroic Classes: Adept, Face, Fighter, Infiltrator, Magic-User, Tech and Tough. Heroic characters gain three core Talents at 1st level plus one additional talent every odd level after that (3, 5, etc.) and a Bonus Class Feat every even level (2, 4, 6, etc.). These feats must be chosen from the Class Bonus Feat list.
Heroic characters gain Karma Points which act as Hero Points from the Optional Rules in the DMG (pg. 264) but see below.

Karma Points: Heroic characters gain 5 + ½ (round down) their Heroic class levels in Karma Points. You can only spend one Karma a round. Karma points add 1d4+1 to any 1d20 roll (attack roll, saving throw, skill or ability check etc.) and are used to activate certain Talents. Unspent Karma Points are lost when you raise a level (and gain your new levels’ Karma points). Certain Talents and Feats and grant you additional Karma Points, high dice to add to your d20 and new uses.

Talents, Feats and Skills: Using the basic ideas of skills from DnD5 but renaming a couple, adding new ones and new usage. Talents tend to be of greater usefulness and abilities over Feats which are much less powerful (more common). Unless specified elsewhere the DC for Skill is found in PHB pg. 174.
Also not using Tool proficiencies. These have been replaced by new skills. See Skill Update below.
Proficiency: Armors include Light, Medium, Heavy and Shields. Weapons include Simple, Martial (as from the PHB), Light Firearms (pistols, machine pistols, etc.), Heavy Firearms (rifles, assault rifles, shotguns, etc.), Heavy Weapons (machine guns, grenade launchers, etc.) and Super Heavy Weapons (tank cannons, rocket launchers, heavy missile launchers, etc.).

Circumstance Bonuses: While still using Advantages/Disadvantages as normal also using circumstance bonuses that can come from various talents and feats. The same ‘types’ of bonus do not stack but different types can. Basic types: equipment, insight, magic, moral or rage.

Firing into Melee Combat and Ranged attacks while prone: Attacker into melee with an ally and enemies are at a Disadvantage. You are not at disadvantage when firing firearms, etc. when prone.

Wound Damage Threshold: see Reeling Condition below. Your Would Damage Threshold is equal to 15 + Proficiency Bonus + either Strength or Constitution ability modifier (whichever is better). Size also has an effect. Large sized beings gain +2, Huge +5, Gargantuan +10 and Colossal +20. Vehicles can also suffer these affects (see Vehicles).

Additional Conditions – Reeling (see Condition in the PHB): if you suffer damage equal to or greater than your Wound Damage Threshold from one attack, you gain the Reeling condition. Effects…

• You suffer Disadvantage to all Attacks, Skills and Ability checks.
• If you suffer from a second Reeling affect (i.e. you are reeling and again take damage that equal or exceeds your Wound Damage Threshold), you are Stunned for one round. After this round, you lose the Stunned condition but you are still suffering from the Reeling condition as above.
• In order to recover from Reeling, at the end of your round (after you have taken all your actions) attempt a Constitution or Wisdom save (whichever is better) vs. a DC10 or ½ the Damage you just suffered that imposed the condition (round down, whichever is greater, but maximum DC20). If you succeed with your roll, you are no longer suffering the Reeling condition. If you fail, you still are suffering from the Condition.
• Instead you can spend your Action to recover from Reeling, gaining advantage on your check. You can still take the free check at the end of your round if this check failed as above.

Slow Natural Healing: as the option rule found in DMG pg. 267. You only gain back ½ Hit Dice (round up) each long rest and can then spend as many as you wish on HP’s back. Also, once per day, you can recovery one level of Exhaustion after a short rest (in additional to another one at the end of a Long Rest).

Heroic Recovery: when a character falls below ½ their maximum hit points, they can call on some inner reserves that drives many heroes to recover some. As an Action you regain 1d of your best Hit Dice (if multi-classing) plus its Constitution modifier plus your Heroic level back in hit points, up to your maximum total HP’s. You regain an additional +1d of your best HD at your 5th Heroic level, and an additional +1d of your best HD every five additional Heroic levels after that. You must complete a long rest to regain the use of this ability and this does not cost you any of your Hit Dice for healing.

Maintaining Spells in Shadowrun no spell last longer than the spell caster concentrating on it. All spells that require concentration automatically end if the magic user stops concentrating on it.

Full Round Action and Free Actions: A full round action takes up the creatures full round, including their action, movement (Speed 0 remaining) and bonus action (you still have your reaction). A free action take none of these.

Mind-Effecting: many talents and feats are listed as mind-effecting. These talents and feats only affect living, sentient beings, nor spirits or elementals. Mind-effecting fear don’t work against sentient beings immune to fear.

Hardness: Vehicles and material reduce some damage automatically (ala Damage Reduction of older editions). Hardness reduces all damage by its level before applying it to the target. There is a special ‘Ballistic Hardness’ that works as a damage reduction but only verses ballistic weapon damage. This is common in most armor, drones and vehicles. Cybernetic implants and spells can also grant some Hardness to metahumans and stacks with ballistic hardness for overall ratings. Some paracritters and enhanced animals can also gain Hardness ratings.

SITUATIONAL AND ACTION HOUSERULES

Aim: if the attacker does not move on its turn (Speed 0), it can use a Bonus action to ‘Aim’ at a target when taking a Range Attack action. When it does so, ½ cover drops to no cover and ¾ cover drops to ½ cover. Aim has no effect on full cover.

Area of Effects -Explosives: (PHB pg. 204) When making an attack with a hand grenade, rifled grenade launcher, mortar, missiles or any other weapon AOE style attack, the attack chooses where the explosive is going to land. Explosive weapons also have two range increments, base and long. Long range grants advantage on affected target’s saving throws. If an attacker does not have Line-Of-Sight on this AOE it is can make an indirect attack, meaning that it can attack over osculates or into area that the attacker cannot see. The range remains the same. Treat targets as Invisible and affected targets have advantages on their saving throws. If the targets are also at the long range of the explosives the targets gain Resistance to the grenades damage (¼ damage at long range with a successful save against an indirect attack).

Area of Effects -Autofire: When using an Autofire weapon feature, the attacker has two choices, to concentrate on one target or to try fire into an area seeking to damage multiples targets at once. Both affects require the shooter to make a Ranged attack roll at -5. When the attacker concentrates on one target a successful hit deals +2d weapon damage to one target (i.e. an assault rifle that deals 2d8 damage deals 4d8 damage and a critical hit deals 6d8 damage). For the second option, the attacker must get at least a 10+ with its ranged attack check. If it succeeds all targets in the weapons Area of Effect (AOE; PHB pg. 204) must make a Dexterity saving throw vs. DC of 8 + the attacker’s proficiency + Dexterity ability modifier. All targets that fail suffer the base weapons damage. If they succeed they take ½ damage. If the attacker got a Critical success on its attack then all effected targets saving throw are at disadvantage (instead of dealing double damage).
Special – the attack can use a Bonus action to “Brace” as a maneuver to reduce these penalties to the attack roll to only -2, but its Speed drops to 0 until the start of its next turn. Bracing causes you to suffer advantage from all attacks directed against you until the start of your next turn.

Special - you do not include your Strength or Dexterity modifier nor do you add any range Feat or non-specific Talent (Grenade Expert) bonuses to damage to any AOE damage types listed above.

Cover: cover is very important in modern/sci-fi settings. Soft cover is provided by effects that obscure vision such as smoke, foliage, etc. These effects cannot stop an attack but rather obscure the creature making them harder to hit. Hard cover works similarly but can be destroyed by damage. Any hit that misses a target do to the cover bonus (including full cover if the attacker wishes to shot it) damages the cover instead. Otherwise cover has an AC of 10 to attack any. ½ Cover can absorb 25 HP, ¾ Cover can absorb 50 HP, Full Cover has 100 HP, and all have Resistance to damage. Full cover that is reduced to 50 HP only provides ¾ cover now, and ¾ cover reduces to 25 HP only provides ½ cover. When all the area’s HP are depleted it no longer provides cover. The material cover is made of also provides Hardness. Light materials (wood, etc.) provide 2 Hardness, Medium material (concrete, plastics, etc.) provide 4 Hardness, Heavy materials (reinforced concrete, steel, etc.) provides 8 Hardness, while Super-Heavy material (reinforced steel, etc.) provide 10 Hardness. It takes ½ movement to initially benefit from cover and when “pop-out” attacking to gain the benefiting from either Full Cover or ¾, also costs the attacker ½ movement.

Falling Prone: unless you are forced Prone, you use 5ft of Movement to fall to the ground prone. Also as a Reaction, if you have at least 5ft of movement remaining this turn or have not acted yet this turn, you can fall prone (costing you 5ft of movement) and gain advantage on any Dexterity saving throws against area of affect spells or weapons that you just reacted too.

Strain has an adverse effect against your adapt abilities. Generally for every 2 full points of Strain an adept suffers -1 to all attacks, ability checks, saves and skills with all adapt Powers.

PHYSICAL ADEPT TALENT TREE
The adept gains various magical powers that enhance his body in some way.

Astral Perception: You can perceive into the Astral Plane as a bonus action (reaction to end). You gain the effect of truesight and can communicate with astral beings. However this is distracting and imposing Disadvantage on all attack rolls and skill or ability checks that require sight.

Babel: By listening to a language that you presently cannot speak or reading a text you cannot presently read, you can spend a short 5 round Ritual (no other actions) and gain the ability to speak or read it. This affect lasts for one hour after you have performed the ritual before your understanding fades. You can use this ability again after a short or long rest.

Crafty Action: As a Bonus action you can take the Dash, Disengage or Hide action on your turn.

Elemental Strike: You can enshroud your hands with elemental energy to strike your foes with greater force. As a free action at the beginning of your round you to charge your unarmed damage (including any Killing Hands dice) to one elemental type (Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, Radiant or Thunder). The attack deals a secondary elemental effect automatically (see SPELLS & SPELL CASTING – Elemental Bolt for Secondary Effect). This effect last until the start of your next turn. You can use this ability a number of rounds equal to your Wisdom modifier (they do not have to be one round after another, just a number of times). You must complete a long rest to use this ability again. You must choose the elemental to use when you take this talent and it cannot be changed later.

Enhanced Movement: When you take the Dash action, your base movement speed and Dash movement increased by +15 feet for your Action (so if you normal movement speed is 30 feet, when you take the Dash Action you can move up to 90 feet; 45 feet from your Move and 45 feet with the Dash). Also when you take the Dash action you ignore difficult terrain penalties to your movement.

Enhanced Physical Attribute: Your physical form has been enhanced. You gain +2 bonus to either you Strength, your Dexterity or your Constitution. This allows you also to exceed your characteristic maximum by 2 (or 4, see below). You can take this talent multiple times, each time it applies to a different physical attribute. Once you have taken all three attribute you can take this talent one additional time, applying it to your Strength, Dexterity or Constitution.

Enhanced Reflex: You can move unnaturally fast when you want to. You gains a +2 bonus to AC and Initiative checks, gain advantage on Dexterity saving throws, and gains an additional action on each of its turns. That action can be used only to take the Attack (one weapon attack only), Dash, Disengage, Hide, Recover from Reeling or Use an Object action. Note that this cannot be combined with any other similar boosts provided by drugs, magic, talents, or cybernetics.

Facial Sculpt: With a short 5 round Ritual, you transform your appearance. You decide what you look like, including your height, weight, facial features, sound of your voice, hair length, coloration, and distinguishing characteristics, if any. You can make yourself appear as a member of another race, though none of your statistics change. You also don't appear as a creature of a different size than you, and your basic shape stays the same. This ability also does not change your clothing. You must concentrate on this ability to maintain it but otherwise can use it as often as you wish.

Foresight: You have advantage with Dexterity (Initiative). Prerequisite: Trained with Initiative.

Improved Abilities: Pick one skill – Acrobatics, Deception, Insight, Intimidate, Medicine, Perception, Performance, Persuasion, Sleight of Hands or Stealth. You have advantage with this skill.

Improved Dodge: You can take the Dodge action as a Bonus action. You can use this ability a number of times equal to your Wisdom ability modifier. Regain these uses after a short or long rest.

Improved Weapon Master: With the weapon the adept picked for her Weapon Master talent she now gains her full level as a magical bonus to damage with these weapons and +2 magic bonus to attack rolls with this one specific type of weapon. The weapon’s attacks counts as a magical weapon. Prerequisite: Weapon Master.

Kinesics Voice: You can alter your voice patters in such a way as the make others friendly to you. This talent works exactly like Winning Smile under the Face’s Diplomatic Talent Tree ability. Targets save DC vs. this ability is 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom bonus.

Killing Hands: Your hands can deal deadly damage. When you first take this talent, add +1d4 bludgeoning damage to your unarmed attack (for a medium size creature the base is 1 bludgeoning damage, so it becomes 1d4+1 bludgeoning damage). Your unarmed strike gains the weapon properties of finesse and light (meaning you can also make off-hand attacks with the Two Weapon attack ability). At 5th level adept this damage becomes +1d6 bludgeoning, at 10th level adept it is +1d8, at 15th level adept is it +1d10 and finally at 20th level adept it becomes +1d12. If you have any other feat the increase your base unarmed damage remember these dice are separate (i.e. with the Martial Arts feat a 1st level Troll Adept with the Killing Hands talent would dead 1d6 +1d4 +Strength modifier in bludgeoning damage).

Mental Cloaking: With an Action your body becomes blurred, shifting and wavering to all who can see you. For the duration, creatures have Disadvantage on attack rolls against you. It also means you can make a Stealth check without cover or with cover you can make the check with advantage. Creatures are immune to these effects if it doesn't rely on sight, as with blindsight, or can see through illusions, as with truesight. This effect last as long as you concentrate up to 1 minute (10 turns). You must complete a short or long rest to use this ability again.

Mystical Armor: Your understanding of the magic of your body grows you learn to better deal with external threats to it. When you are not wearing armor or carrying a shield, you add your Dexterity and Wisdom together to get your base Armor Class. This improves by +1 for every 5 levels in Adept that they gain (+1 at 5th level adept, +2 at 10th level adept, etc.). You also reduce all damage including those caused by magical spells and weapons by 2 points.

THREE CORE TALENTS
All Magic Users, regardless of type, are require to take the 3 core talents listed below at 1st level – Astral Perception and Projection, Spell-Casting and Summoning. If multi-classing after 1st level your first talent pick must come from the Core magic-user talents.
Magic Points and Magnitude: All magic users gain Magic Points that are used to fuel their casting of spells and summoning abilities along with a Magnitude rating which determines how powerful a spell they can cast or creature they can summon safely.
Magic Points are equal to the tradition’s defining attribute. This increases by a number of additional points equal to your tradition’s defining attribute's modifier every level in Magic User they achieves after first. A caster recovers 1d4 magic points +1 per magic-user level (i.e. a 3rd level magic user recovers 1d4 +3 magic points) after a short rest or 2d4 points +2 per mageic-user level after a long rest, unless otherwise noted. During either rest a caster can spend Hit Dice to recover the above amounts instead of hit points (i.e. a 3rd level magic-user who spends one Hit Dice for magic point recover regains another 1d4+3 during the short rest or 2d4+6 with a long rest). A caster can spend a Karma Point to regain the short rest amount any time as an Action (i.e. a 3rd level magic-user spends a karma point to regain 1d4+3 magic points as an Action). Finally, as an Action, the magic-user choices to suffers one level of Exhaustion and regain the short rest amount (i.e. a 3rd level magic user can take an action and one level of Exhaustion to regain 1d4+3 magic points).
Magnitude Level or Rating of all beginning magic-users starts at 3. This is the “safe” level that a magic-user can cast her spells up to and the force level of a spirit she can summon. The higher the magnitude the greater the spell or spirit! A magic-user can cast a spell or summon a spirit up to 3 levels over his magnitude level (i.e. a 3rd level magic-user can cast up to a 6 magnitude spell) but when he does so in addition to the Magic Point cost it also costs he 1d4 magical hit points of damage per Magnitude Level (not just the level over the caster’s safe level; i.e. a 3rd level magic user casting a magnitude 6 spell suffers 6d4 hit points of damage). This damage ignores all Resistance or any Damage Reductions/Hardness that the caster or summoner currently has, regardless of the source. There are talents that increases a magic-user’s Magnitude Rating.

Hermetic Mages use their Intelligence score while Shamanic character use their Wisdom score as their Tradition’s Defining Attribute.
A caster's Magical Save is DC8 + your proficiency modifier + your defining ability modifies. Your Magical Attack modifier is equal to your Proficiency + your defining attribute modifier.
Magic-users suffer from the Strain of Cybernetic implants. Each every 2 points Strain is a -1 to all attack rolls, skill and ability checks and saving while Astral Projecting, a -1 to Magical attack modifier and a reduction of your Magical saves DC by one.

CORE MAGIC USER TALENT TREE
All beginning magic-users must take all three of the following talents. Characters that multi-class in a magic-user must take one of these talants when they first take this class.

Astral Perception and Projection: this is the ability of the magic-user to perceive and project into the astral plane. In order to switch over to astral perception is a bonus action (it is a reaction to end it automatically). You gain the effect of truesight and can communicate with astral beings. However this is distracting and imposing Disadvantage on all attack rolls and skill or ability checks that require sight. In order to astral project ones spirit into the astral plane or from the astral plane back into their body requires a full round ritual (Speed 0, no bonus or reactions). Each hour spent in Astral Space deals one level of Exhaustion to the caster. While projecting he can ignore this fatigue but it can kill him if he remain too long. After returning to your meat body you recover all exhaustion gained this after a short or long rest. See ASTRAL SPACE in MAGIC.

Spell-Casting: this is the ability of the magic-user to cast spells. Spells cost 1 Magic Point per Magnitude Level. Any spell that allows a saving throw uses your save DC while those that are attack rolls use your Magic Attack bonus. A magic-user can concentrate to maintain two spells that require concentration at one time but doing so require two separate concentration checks to maintain, each at -2, if he suffers damage. Failure results in that particular spell ending immediately. When you take this talent you gain three Spell choices. See SPELLS AND SPELL CASTING in MAGIC.

Summoning: the ability of the magic-user to summon Elementals (if a Hermitic Mage) or Natural Spirits (if Shamanic). Summoning is an ability check using the summoner’s Charisma ability modifier plus their proficiency bonus plus any other miscellaneous (from a magic item, etc.) as the Conjuring Check. Conjuring an element or spirit has a base cost of 2 Magic Points per Magnitude Level. Failure costs 1 Magic Point but if the summoner overcasting it also costs a minimum damage in HP (i.e. a 3rd level magic user who attempted and failed to summon a Magnitude 4 fire elemental still loses 1 MP and 4 HP of damage). When you first take this talent you can chose two type of spirits from you available list. See SUMMONING ELEMENTALS & NATURAL SPIRITS in MAGIC

EMPOWERED TALENT TREE
These Talent enhance and enpower the magic-users core Talents.

Astral Warrior: When you are astral projecting you gain Advantage on any melee attacks verses another astral being and your unarmed astral damage increases to 1d10 plus your traditional ability modifier. You gain Resistance to all damage you take in your astral form when projecting.

Elemental Mastery: You add a +2 insight bonus to summoning one type of elemental or spirit and at one level higher in magnitude at no additional magic point cost (i.e. a 4th magnitude spirit counts as a 3rd magnitude). This allows the summoner to over-summon safely by +1 magnitude but you still cannot exceed the maximum +3 for over-casting. You can take this talent multiple times, each time it must apply to a different specific elemental or spirit type that you can summon.

Mentor Spirit: You gain a spirit guide that aids you with magic. This guide grants you two of the following benefits. Work with the GM to determine which effects best suit your guide: (a) Astral Bonus – you gain a +2 bonus to all skills rolls, saving throws, ability checks while astral projecting or (b) Casting Bonus - pick one spell category (Combat, Detect, Health, Illusion or Transformation). Casting any spells from your chosen group cost 1 less Magic point (no minimum). This can be combine with any other talent or focus that reduces Magic point cost, down to zero points or (c) Gain a +2 bonus to Conjuring Checks and reduce the Magic Point cost by 1 with one elemental or spirit type of choice or (d) Gain a +2 bonus to one appropriate skill of choice. You can chose this talent additional times, each time choosing two new but different abilities (they do not stack; i.e. you can’t gain +4 while in astral space, or with a skill, etc.).

Spell Mastery: Gain additional insight with one specific spell that you must chose when you take this talent. When you take this talent gains one of the following: (a) add +1 magnitude to the spell for free (at no magic points cost) and safely (can exceed safe casting by +1 but this still cannot exceed the +3 overcasting) or (b) increase the saving throw DC by +3 or (c) gain advantage on any listed skills in the spell for the duration or (d) spells that are resisted by a skill roll you impose Disadvantage when used against this spell for the duration. You can take this talent multiple times, each time it must be applied to a different spell.

Spell Shielding: As a Bonus action you reduce all magical damage caused by spells and weapons by 2 and gain +2 magical bonus to all saving throws verse spells that allow them until the end of your next round. You can expend a Magic Point to extend these benefits to a number of allies equal to your traditions defining ability modifier. You can take this talent a second time but you must have 5 levels in Magic-User to do so. You now reduce all magical damage by 5 points and you’re saving throw bonus verses spells increase to +5 for the duration of the effect.

INITIATE TALENT TREE
These Talents requires higher levels of Magic-Users (minimum 5+) to take any.

Channeling: This quick ritual uses all the coster's Move (Speed 0). The caster can cast any one spell at one higher level of magnitude safely (no hit point damage, but still costs magic points) and with Advantage on any magical attack roll or she can impose Disadvantage on any save or skill check to overcome the spell. The caster must take a long rest to use this ritual again. The caster could take this talent multiple times, each time she can perform this ritual an additional time before she must complete a long rest. Prerequisite: Magic-User 5+

Increased Magnitude Rating: This talent can be first talent at 5th level and increases the caster’s safe Magnitude Level by +1 (to 4). This does not increase the over-casting limit of +3 over (but it is now 7). The caster can take this talent a second time at 9th level magic-user granting another +1 to her Magnitude (increasing it to 5). The caster can take this talent a third time at 13th level magic-user granting another +1 to her Magnitude (increasing it to 6). The caster can take this talent a final time at 17th level magic-user for an additional +1 to her Magnitude rating (for a final 7 and max Overcasting of 10). Prerequisite: Magic-User 5+.

Invoking: This summoning ability allows the conjurer to have two spirits or elementals in his service at one time. The two must be summoned seperately but they both serve at the same time. Prerequisite: Magic-User 9+, Magnitude 4+, Summoning core talent.

Masking: This ability allows the magic-user to mask his magical aura when viewed from astral space. To those looking the magic-user she appears to be a mundane individual (non-awakened) even if viewed with truesight. In order to pierce this mask requires an action with an Intelligence (Investigation) check against a DC8 + the magic users proficiency bonus + the traditions defining ability modifier + ½ (round up) his level’s in magic-user. Prerequisite: Magic-User 5+.

Quickening: This talent allows a magic-user to maintain one additional concentration spells at the same time, but her concentration checks are at -2 (-5 if maintaining 3 spells at one time). Again if the magic-user suffers damage while doing this it requires a separate concentration check for each spell she is maintaining. Each failure results in that particular spell ending. Prerequisite: Magic-User 5+, Spell-Casting core talent.

Summon Spirit Ally: This ability allows a magic-user to summon a permanent spirit companion. The Magnitude of the spirit can be no greater than the magic user’s base Magnitude Level and requires a one day ritual per Magnitude of spirit to be summoned, where the magic user can perform no other actions but eating and sleeping. After summoned the spirits will grow in power if the magic-user raises his magnitude rating. This spirit ally does not count as a summoned spirit for the magic-user and are not banished if the magic-user is incapacitated or knocked to 0 hit points. Attempt to banish this spirit are at Disadvantage and a banished ally spirit returns to the magic-user’s service at the next sunrise or sunset. If the spirit is ever destroyed the magic-user suffer a reduction of her Magnitude level of ½ the spirits rating. These Levels return a 1 per 1d6 days. When her magnitude has returned to normal she can again perform the ritual to re-summon a new spirit ally. Prerequisite: Magic User 5+, Conjuring core talent.

Treading: This ritual allows the magic-user to safely summon a spirit that is one Magnitude level higher then normal without suffering the damage of doing so and costing no extra magic points. It also grants the summon Advantage on his Summoning check roll when gaining this greater spirit. The magic-user must complete a long rest to use this ability again. Prerequisite: Magic-User 5+, Conjuring core talent.

MAGICAL FOCUS TALENT TREE
These Talents allow the magic-user to own and benefit from a magical item (called a focus). After character creation they also cost money (¥) unless they acquired one through thief, etc. A character cannot take the same focus twice, nor can she take more than four total times. A weapon focus must be based on a primitive (melee) only weapon from PHB, simple or martial, or Katana and does not stack with any equipment bonuses. All focus require the magic user to spend a Karma point and tp perform a one hour ritual to bond with the item. Afterwards the focus is bond to you and works for you alone. A focus must be "activated" to grant its bonuses. This takes a bonus action but no additional concentration and can be deactivate as a free action.
