Heritage
Damaya Lashunta
You’ve chosen the adaptive genetics to become a damaya. You might have a leaner, lither body type than other lashuntas and are likely encouraged to pursue work as a scholar or politician. In addition to what you gain from your ancestry, you gain an attribute boost to Intelligence and an attribute flaw to Constitution, but the free ancestry boost can’t also be Intelligence. You become trained in Diplomacy. If you would automatically become trained in Diplomacy (from your background or class, for example), you become trained in another skill of your choice. You gain the Additional Lore general feat.

Ancestry Feat 1
Lashunta Lore
Feat 1
Trait: Lashunta
You’ve studied the lives and achievements of other lashuntas who have improved both their psychic powers and their communities. You gain the trained proficiency rank in Occultism and Society. If you would automatically become trained in one of those skills (from your background or class, for example), you instead become trained in a skill of your choice.
You also gain the Additional Lore general feat for Lashunta Lore.

CONNECTION
All mystics have a supernatural connection with a cosmic force that grants magical powers. The exact nature of your connection can vary widely—you might worship a god or pantheon, embody a metaphysical concept, become a conduit for nature’s wrath, or something else. Even mystics who share the same connection might interpret the source of their powers differently. At 1st level, choose your connection. Your chosen connection determines the type of spells you cast and the spell tradition you choose spells from, your additional trained skill, the epiphanies you learn, and a harmony that usually grants creatures a special benefit when you heal them with your vitality network.

Your connection is a mystical force that grants you magic. It could come from a divine patron, manifestation of a primeval cosmic force, or some other mystery. Your connection determines your spellcasting tradition and grants you the trained proficiency rank in the listed connection skill. You automatically add your connection spells to your spell repertoire, as described in the spell repertoire class feature. You gain the initial epiphany at 1st level and can gain the advanced and greater epiphanies by selecting the Advanced Epiphany (page 123) and Greater Epiphany (page 124) feats. You gain your chosen connection’s harmony at 1st level, which triggers whenever you Transfer Vitality, and your connection’s perfect harmony at 19th level.

HEALING
You’re connected to the fount of vitality and void energy that flows through all living things on every planet. You weave these energies into spells that heal your allies and harm your enemies.
Tradition divine; Connection Skill Medicine
Connection Spells cantrip: stabilize; 1st: heal; 2nd: false vitality; 3rd: entropy strike; 4th: genetic regeneration; 5th: breath of life; 6th: vampiric exsanguination; 7th: execute; 8th: moment of renewal; 9th: massacre
Epiphany Spells initial: infusion; advanced: vitality nova; greater: vital rebirth
Harmony When you Transfer Vitality, attempt to counteract one affliction affecting the target, or attempt to counteract one effect of your choice imposing one of the following conditions on the target: blinded, clumsy, dazzled, deafened, enfeebled, sickened.

MYSTIC BOND
You form a bond between yourself and others, most typically your closest companions. Forming bonds is different for every mystic but always involves using a 10-minute activity related to the mystic’s connection that requires you to be adjacent to the creature with whom you wish to bond. You can maintain a bond with up to 10 other willing creatures, and the bond lasts until you or the bonded creature are no longer willing to be part of the bond. You are always considered part of your own bond and don’t count toward the 10-creature limit.

You always know the general distance and direction toward other bonded creatures, their Hit Point totals, and if they’re conscious, unconscious, dying, or dead. This ability doesn’t work across planes (including when in transit in the Drift), and some special magical or technological effects might interfere with your ability to detect your allies.

VITALITY NETWORK
Your soul supports a network of energy that connects and heals those in your bond. Your vitality network has a maximum capacity equal to 6 + 4 Hit Points per level. You gain the Transfer Vitality action that you can use to take Hit Points out of your network and into yourself or your allies as healing.
Life-and-death situations help strengthen your bonds with your allies. At the start of each turn in combat, when you regain actions, your vitality network regains 4 Hit Points; if you’re master in spell DC, it regains 6 Hit Points instead; if you’re legendary, it regains 8 Hit Points. When you Refocus, your vitality network regains all its Hit Points.

TRANSFER VITALITY [one-action]
Traits: Concentrate, Healing, Mystic
You can transfer up to 10 Hit Points (minimum 1) from your vitality network into yourself or a bonded creature you can sense within 60 feet. This works on creatures with void healing as though this action had the void trait. The amount you can transfer increases by 10 at 5th, 10th, 15th and 20th level.

MYSTIC SPELLCASTING
You are a spellcaster and can cast spells using the Cast a Spell activity (see Casting Spells on page 298). As a mystic, when you cast spells, you might intone a prayer or hum a song inspired by your epiphanies, you might gesture or dance in patterns that follow the flow of your connection’s network, and you might accompany your spellcasting with wisps of energy flowing between you and your bonded allies.
Each day, you can cast up to three 1st-rank spells. You must know spells to cast them, and you learn them via the spell repertoire class feature. The number of spells you can cast each day is called your spell slots.

As you increase in level as a mystic, your number of spells per day increases, as does the highest rank of spells you can cast, as shown on the Mystic Spells per Day table on page 119.

Some of your spells require you to attempt a spell attack to see how effective they are or have your enemies roll against your spell DC (typically by attempting a saving throw). Since your key attribute is Wisdom, your spell attack modifiers and spell DCs use your Wisdom modifier. Details on calculating these statistics appear on pages 394–395.

Heightening Spells
When you get spell slots of 2nd rank and higher, you can fill those slots with stronger versions of lower-rank spells. This increases the spell’s rank to match the spell slot. You must have a spell in your spell repertoire at the rank you want to cast in order to heighten it to that rank. Many spells have specific improvements when they’re heightened to certain ranks. The signature spells class feature lets you heighten certain spells freely.

Cantrips
Some of your spells are cantrips. A cantrip is a special type of spell that doesn’t use spell slots. You can cast a cantrip at will, any number of times per day. A cantrip is automatically heightened to half your level rounded up—this is usually equal to the highest rank of mystic spell slot you have. For example, as a 1st-level mystic, your cantrips are 1st-rank spells, and as a 5th-level mystic, your cantrips are 3rd-rank spells.

SPELL REPERTOIRE
The collection of spells you can cast is called your spell repertoire. At 1st level, you learn two 1st-rank spells of your choice and four cantrips of your choice as well as an additional spell and cantrip from your chosen connection. You choose these from the common spells from the tradition corresponding to your chosen connection or from other spells from that tradition to which you have access. You can cast any spell in your spell repertoire by using a spell slot of an appropriate spell rank.
You add to this spell repertoire as you increase in level. Each time you get a spell slot (see Mystic Spells per Day on page 119), you add a spell of the same rank to your spell repertoire.

When you gain access to a new rank of spells, your first new spell is always the spell granted by your chosen connection, but you can choose the other spells. At 2nd level, you select another 1st-rank spell; at 3rd level, you gain a new spell from your chosen connection and two other 2nd-rank spells, and so on. When you add spells, you might select a higher-rank version of a spell you already know so that you can cast a heightened version of that spell.

Though you gain them at the same rate, your spell slots and the spells in your spell repertoire are separate. If a feat or other ability adds a spell to your spell repertoire, it wouldn’t give you another spell slot, and vice versa.

Swapping Spells in Your Repertoire
As you gain new spells in your spell repertoire, you might want to replace some of the spells you previously learned. Each time you gain a level and learn new spells, you can swap out one of your old spells for a different spell of the same rank. This spell can be a cantrip, but you can’t swap out epiphany spells or connection spells. You can also swap out spells by retraining during downtime.

Background Skill Feat
Religious Talisman
Traits General, Skill
Feat 7 Feat 1 per background description.
Prerequisites master in Religion (waived by background), follower of a specific religion
You can construct and bless a religious symbol of your deity in 10 minutes. While such talismans are traditionally scraps of paper with a religious symbol drawn on them, they can take many forms, including body art, a sticker, or even a virtual emoji. You can create a talisman only for yourself and for the deity you worship. As long as you continue to engage in activities that match your deity’s edicts you gain a +1 status bonus to initiative rolls. If you violate your deity’s anathema, the talisman is destroyed, and you take a –1 status penalty to initiative rolls and Perception checks until you complete an atone ritual (page 382).

Item 1
Source Player Core pg. 269
Price 200 credits Bulk L
Bulk —
Force fields absorb damage. A force field's Hit Points are based on its version. While your force field is active, any physical or energy damage you would take is applied to the force field's Hit Points first before being applied to your Hit Points (including temporary Hit Points). If you have a shield raised, your force field and shield both take damage. If damage from an attack or effect reduces the force field to 0 Hit Points, you take any excess damage, the force field deactivates, and it can't be activated again for 10 minutes. Force fields replenish the indicated number of Hit Points each round at the beginning of your turn while they're active.
The Commercial force field has 6 Hit Points and replenishes 2 Hit Points on your turn.
SFS Note If a PC takes damage with both a force field up and a shield raised, the force field takes damage first. Shield Block only triggers if there is damage remaining afterwards, at which point the shield would potentially be damaged.

A personal comm unit also includes a calculator, a flashlight (emits bright light in a 5-foot radius around you and dim light in the next 5 feet), a browser that accesses any local infospheres, and several entertainment options (including games).

Personal comm units integrated into armor have some voice-activated capabilities; you can communicate with other comm units in audio-based formats and receive responses without needing a free hand, but typing a message, browsing the infosphere, or using an app requires the use of at least one hand.

Comm units that function at longer ranges aren't as portable; they include built-in generators that provide the necessary amount of power and rely on active Drift beacons to communicate. Short-term use of these units can be purchased in most major settlements.
