Every adventurer, hero or villain character can be described by themes. Themes are both descriptive, but also mechanically a major part of what makes a character. They create both the general outline of what the character begins as, but also limits the ways in which they progress when they gain experience out in the world.
Themes are the major outlines of the types of adventurers that exist, describing both rogues and swashbucklers for the martial and cunning expertise, but also wizards, clerics and druids for the arcane, divine or primal powers.
The table to the right describes the general structure of each theme and is divided into the Half Theme and the Full Theme parts. Each character is defined by two themes, where the choice of the same theme results in a Full Theme character.
Features
As you gain levels you gain certain features, described in the chosen themes. If the feature is a specific feat, that feat is gained, meaning that it can't be taken again if you have that choice, unless otherwise noted that it can be. If listed multiple times in the theme table, that is an exception. An example of this is the Extra Attack feat. Which a Full Martial character can gain three times, each time increasing their amount of attacks.
Feats
Feats are features which provide a path for specialization. These may be picked from a wide array of features with the only restrictions being that you need to fulfill the listed prerequisites of the chosen feat.
Theme
Themes are features specially assigned to the chosen theme. These are usually in the form of a specific feat or category of feats, they may however also be a specific feature only gained through the theme. An example of this is the Extra Attack feature for the Martial Theme. The second and third time you gain this feature, it's exclusive to the Martial Theme.
Theme Feats
Theme Feats are Feats chosen exclusively from the specified Theme. The listed prerequisites still apply.
You can access certain Themes' Feats if you fulfill certain requirements, even if your character does not have said themes:
| Theme | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Arcane | Arcana feat: Arcane Initiate. |
| Divine | Religion feat: Acolyte or Divine Purpose. |
| Martial | At least 6 feats from Armor Feat, Weapon Feat, or Warfare Feat (Each Warfare proficiency tier count as 1 feat). |
| Occult | At least Master(+8) with Occultism proficieny. |
| Primal | At least Master(+8) with Druidism proficieny. |
Theme Proficiencies
Theme Proficiencies is proficiencies chosen from a list determined by the specified Theme.
Class Features
Class Features are the features gained by the chosen class. These features are powerful and exclusive and are what define the class the most compared to those with similar themes and theme combinations. Features like Action Surge and Rage are Class Features, which provide a significant identity to the character.
Themes
The Arcane Theme is the focus of arcane power and learning to weave its strings into magic in the world. Their time is spent either by practice or by study. An arcane character is powerful and usually insanely dangerous when prepared. However, they are limited by their physique and agility.
An unprepared arcane character can be an easy target, and should be dealt with quickly and without doubt. If the upper-hand lies in their hands, no one knows what they might have in store.
Arcane Cantrip Mastery
You gain Arcane Cantrip Mastery from the Arcane Feat list.
All you require is mastery of the basics, the rest is just for show.
- You learn two cantrips of your choice from the Arcane spell list.
Arcane Initiate
You gain Arcane Initiate from the Arcana Feat list.
Prerequisite: Intelligence 13 or highter
You uncover magical abilities, and gain the following benefits:

You gain Arcane Ritual Book from the Arcane Feats list.
Prerequisite: Intelligence 13 or higher, Arcane Ritual Casting
- When you choose this feat, you acquire a ritual book holding two arcane 1st-level spells of your choice. The spells you choose must have the ritual tag.
You don't need to have the spell prepared if you cast it as a ritual and you have the spell in your ritual book.
When you find an arcane spell in written form, such as a magical spell scroll or a wizard's spellbook, you might be able to add it to your ritual book. The spell must be a ritual spell, on the arcane spell list, of a spell point cost you can cast and you need the time and skills to decipher and copy it.
- The process of copying a spell takes 2 hours and costs 50 gp per level of the spell. The cost represents material components you expend as you experiment with the spell to master it, as well as the fine inks you need to record it.
- When you copy a spell from a spell scroll, you must succeed on an Intelligence (Arcana) check with a DC equal to 10 + the spell's level. If the check succeeds, the spell is successfully copied. Whether the check succeeds or fails, the spell scroll is destroyed.
- If you copy a spell from your own ritual book you only need to spend 1 hour and 10 gp for each level of the copied spell.
If you lose your ritual book, you can transcribe the spells that you have learned or prepared into a new ritual book. If done by memory, this requires an Intelligence (Arcana) check against a DC of 10 + the transcribed spell level. On a failure, the transcribed spell is not completed correctly, which is known to you, and can't be attempted again until you have had a look at the spell in written form.

The Martial Theme represents the mastery of physical and martial prowess. Those with this theme put hours upon hours of time on honing their reflexes, weapon proficiencies, maneuvers and martial cunning.
A martial character is a foe to be reckoned with, especially in long drawn battles. Their resources rarely drain as fast as a caster, and usually end in death before they're completely out of stamina. Their biggest drawback however lies in the ordinary, which is what they mostly are.
They are extraordinarily ordinary, which means they won't resurrect anyone, fly through the skies by will or call upon spirits, gods or eldritch powers to strike down their enemies.
