# Mesmer
Mesmers are masters of illusion and control, subverting the enemy’s Energy for
their own use, and that of their allies. Combined with any other profession, their
skills provide excellent support, turning enemies’ powers against them and changing
the very fabric of reality to hinder foes and help allies.
Mesmers have the ability to cast spells quickly, which can make all the difference
in the heat of battle. Their powers of domination allow them to take control of
enemy skills and Energy. Their unique illusionary talents can slow or even halt
enemy movement and skill casting, or cause imaginary illnesses that drain Health
and Energy from foes while healing and energizing allies. While Mesmers are not
known for brute strength, their abilities to confuse, distract, and drain the
enemy’s resources more than compensates.

#### Quick Build

You can make a mesmer quickly by following these suggestions. First, Charisma
should be your highest ability score, followed by Dexterity. Second, choose the
entertainer background. Third, choose the *Signet of Energy Bolt* and *Signet of
Hex* signets, along with the *Empathy*, and *Fragility* incantations.

## Class Features
As a mesmer, you gain the following class features
#### Hit Points
___
- **Hit Dice:** 1d6 per mesmer level
- **Hit Points at 1st Level:** 6 + your Constitution modifier
- **Hit Points at Higher Levels:** 1d6 (or 4) + your Constitution modifier per
mesmer level after 1st

#### Proficiencies
___
- **Armor:** None
- **Weapons:** Simple Weapons
- **Tools:** Disguise Kit

___
- **Saving Throws:** Charisma, Dexterity
- **Skills:** Choose two skills from Arcana, Deception, Insight, Perception,
Performance, Persuasion, and Stealth

#### Equipment
You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by
your background:
- *(a)* a shortbow and quiver of 20 arrows or *(b)* any simple weapon
- An arcane focus, a dagger and an entertainer's pack

### Mesmer Casting

With the manipulation of the energy flowing in you and in the other creatures, you
learned a way to use the magic based on that energy.

The Mesmer casting is divided into **signets** and **incantations**, which gives
enough flexibility to the mesmers to adapt their abilities for each situation.

#### Signets
A signet is a small magic effect you have mastered in your training as a mesmer. At
1st level, you know two signets of your choice (see the signet options later in
this class description). You learn additional signets of your choice at higher
levels, as shown in the Signets Known column of the Mesmer table.

#### Incantations
Incantations are the core of the mesmers, based on their constant training on the
manipulation of the energy. The incantations are divided in two types: normal
incantations and elite incantations. Even though there is a wide list of
incantations, the mesmers master only a few of them at a time.

Each incantation has a **mesmer focus**, which is a temporary bonus you have while
focused on that incantation, and a number of **tiers**, which are different options
for using the incantation.

#### New condition: Hexed

Some of the mesmer signets and incantations impose a special condition called hex
(simmilar to being blinded, paralized or restrained). Hexing a creature is not the
same as casting the *Hex* spell. Considering this, using any spell that ends one
condition, such as *Lesser Restoration*, can remove the mesmer hex. For more
information about how hexing works, read the "Hexing Targets" in the Mesmer
Incantations section.

#### Incantations Known

At 1st level, you know two normal incantations of your choice (see the incantation
options later in this class description). You learn additional incantations of your
choice at higher levels, as shown in the Incantations Known column of the Mesmer
Table. Incantations must be chosen from among your mesmer magic tradition.

Optionally, whenever you learn an additional incantation, for every two

incantations of your mesmer magic tradition you can choose to learn one incantation
from another magic tradition instead.

In addition, whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one
incantation you know with a different one of your choice. You can replace a normal
incantation with an elite incantation.

You must be at least 5th level to learn an elite incantation, and you can only
learn elite incantations from your mesmer magic tradition.

```
```

#### Elite Incantations

Elite incantations are powerful, but they are particularly difficult to use. You
can use the first tier of an elite incantation without any further restrictions.
After using an elite incantation of second tier or higher you can't use it again
until you finish a long rest. You can still use the first tier of the elite
incantation used.

<div class='descriptive'>
##### Elite incantations example
Faelnor can use the tier 1 of the *Chaos Storm* and *Power Flux* incantations as
much as he have energy points to do so.

If he uses the tier 2 or tier 3 of *Chaos Storm*, he can't use that tiers again nor
the higher tiers of the *Power Flux* incantation until he finish a long rest.
</div>
<div class='pageNumber auto'></div>
<div class='footnote'>MESMER</div>
\page

#### Energy Points

To use your mesmer incantations, you have a pool of energy points you expend each
time you want to use one of your incantations, shown in the Max. Energy Points
column in the Mesmer table. You can't reduce your energy points total to less than
0, you can't expend more energy points than your energy limit with each
incantation, and you regain all spent energy points when you finish a long rest.

Your level also determines the maximum-level incantation you can use, shown in the
Level Limit column in the Mesmer table. Even though you might have enough points to
use an incantation above this maximum, you can't do so.

#### Mesmer Casting Focus

You can use an arcane focus (found in chapter 5) as a mesmer casting focus for your
mesmer incantations. As a bonus action, you can choose one of your mesmer
incantations and gain its mesmer focus benefit, which is detailed in that
incantation description. This benefit lasts until you are incapacitated or until
you use a bonus action to choose a different mesmer focus benefit. You can have
only one mesmer focus benefit at a time.

#### Mesmer Casting Ability

Charisma is your mesmer casting ability for your incantations, since the power of
your magic relies on your ability to use the energy within yourself and others
living creatures. You use your Charisma whenever an incantation or signet refers
to your mesmer casting ability. In addition. you use your Charisma modifier when
setting the saving throw DC for a mesmer incantation or signet you use and when
making an attack roll with one.

<div style="text-align: center">

**Incantation save DC** = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

**Incantation attack modifier** = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

</div>

```
```

### Mesmer Magic Tradition

At first level, you choose a Mesmer Magic Tradition: Domination Magic, Illusion
Magic or Inspiration Magic, which are detailed at the end of the class description.
Your choice grants you features at 1st level and again at 6th, 10th, and 14th
level.

### Fast Casting

At 2nd level, you are trained to cast your incantations faster than before to
interrupt your foes and protect yourself. You have two additional reactions which
can be used in the same round or in separated rounds (allowing you to use three
reactions before your next turn or two reactions in two separated rounds). You can
use these reactions only to use one of your mesmer incantations or a mesmer
feature. You regain any expended reactions when you finish a short or long rest.

Starting at 17th level, you have four additional reactions instead of two.

### Energy Drain

At 3rd level, you can use your innate mesmer magic to take your foes energy and
recover yours. As a bonus action, a
saving throw. On a failed save, you
proficiency bonus. You can't regain
the mesmer table. Once you use this
before you can use it again.
creature you can see must make a Charisma
regain energy points equal to 1d6 + your
more points than the energy points column in
feature, you must finish a short or long rest

### Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can
increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability
scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20
using this feature.

### Elite Incantations

When you reach the 5th level, you can start using elite incantations, which are
more powerful than the normal incantations. You can use only one tier 2 or higher
for your elite incantations per long rest, and the number of uses before you finish
a long rest for tier 2 and above is improved at 10th (2 uses), 14th (3 uses) and
18th (4 uses) level.

### Web of Disruption

At 18th level, you can focus on a foe and cast a powerful hex to fully interrupt
him for a short time. As an action, you target a creature and it must make a
Charisma saving throw. On a failed save, it's paralyzed and hexed for a number of
rounds equal to your Charisma modifier. At the end of each of its turns, the target
can make another Charisma saving throw. On a success, the web of disruption effect
ends on the target. If the effect ends before the duration of the web, the target
takes 6d6 of force damage.

You can't use this feature in two or more creatures at the same time or on a
creature which has been under the effects of the Web of Disruption in the past 24
hours.

### Ether Feast

At 20th level, you regain 6 energy points whenever you finish a short rest.

## Mesmer Magic Traditions

The mesmers are masters of illusions and create confusion among their foes, taking
the arcane energy in their surroundings, transforming and using it as they need.

### Domination Magic

The mesmers dedicated to the Domination Magic use skills and spells that disrupt
their foes while dealing damage. These mesmers also are focused on punishing their
foes for undertaking actions.

Mesmers using Domination Magic focus on shutting down their enemies as much as they
can.

#### Visions of Regret

At 1st level, when a creature within 60 feet of you that you can see hits you with
an attack, you can use a reaction to cause the creature to make a Charisma saving
throw. The creature takes 2d8 psychic damage on a failed saving throw, and half as
much damage to a successful one.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (a
minimum of once) before you finish a short or long rest.

#### Cry of Frustration

Beginning at 6th level, when a creature within 60 feet of you that you can see
makes a saving throw, you can use a reaction and expend 3 energy points to give it
disadvantage on its first saving throw. If the creature fails the save, it also
takes force damage equal to 1d10 + your Charisma modifier.

#### Power Lock

At 10th level, as a reaction, when a creature you can see within 60 feet of you
makes an attack or uses a spell, it must make a Charisma saving throw. On a failed
save, its attack fails and it can't use the same attack or spell until the end of
his next turn.

After using this feature you must finish a short or long rest.

#### Overload
Starting at 14th level, when you attack a single creature with a mesmer signet or
incantation, you can cause the attack to deal an extra 1d10 force damage to the
target.

### Illusion Magic

The mesmers who focus on the Illusion Magic focus on hinder enemies, reducing their
efficiency and movement with hexes and deceiving their foes.

The Illusion Magic also helps the mesmer with illusions that trick your foes for
your own benefit or provides defenses and temporary features for the mesmer.

```
```

#### Imagined Burden

At 1st level, as a bonus action you can target a creature within 60 feet of you
that you can see. The creature speed is reduced by half and it can't take reactions
for a number of rounds equal to half of your Charisma modifier (rounded up).

After you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest.

#### Distortion
At 6th level, you can distort your physical form to avoid some damage. As a
reaction when you take damage, you can halve that damage against you. You can use
this feature twice before you finish a short or long rest.

#### Illusionary Condition

At 10th level, when you use a mesmer incantation on a creature within 60 feet of
you which you can see, it must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the
target is blinded or deafened (your choice) and it can only use either a bonus
action or an action on each of its turns for a number of rounds equal to half of
your Charisma modifier (rounded up).

You can use this feature twice before you finish a short or long rest.

#### Phantom Pain

Starting at 14th level, as a bonus action, a creature within 60 feet of you which
you can see must make a Charisma saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes
1d6 force damage at the beginning of each of its turns and any healing effect it
receives is reduced to half for 1 minute. At the end of each of its turns, the
target can make another Charisma saving throw. On a success, the Phantom Pain
effect ends on the target.

### Inspiration Magic

Mesmers who use Inspiration Magic focus on a more defensive style, giving
resistances, reducing damage and using arcane energies to heal and protect himself
and others.

The Inspiration Magic uses special mantras, which are a series of stances that
provide protection and defenses to the mesmer.

#### Mantra of Protection

At 1st level, you are proficient with another saving throw of your choice and you
have advantage on your Charisma saving throws.

#### Channeling
At 6th level, you can recover a small amount of energy when using your
incantations. Whenever you use a mesmer incantation tier, you recover 1 energy
point.

#### Mantra of Life

At 10th level, when you use a mesmer incantation to heal, the target of the
incantation (an ally or yourself) regain hit points equal to your Charisma
modifier.

#### Mantra of Expel

Starting at 14th level, you can expend 3 energy points to gain advantage on a
saving throw against a spell. In addition, if the spell deals damage, you take only
half damage if you fail the check, and no damage on a success.

## Mesmer Incantations
The mesmer incantations are the result of all of the training and mastery for
mesmers in the use of arcane energy. They are the way to take the energy from
themselves and others and cast and use their illusions and abilities.

The incantations are trained in each mesmer college and they are the vivid image of
the type of magic taught on each mesmer college. However, a mesmer may learn any
incantation regardless of its mesmer magic of preference.

### Using an Incantation

Each incantation have a number of ways you can use it, all contained in its
description. The incantation specifies the type of action and number of energy
points needed to use its effect options. It also details whether you must
concentrate on its effects, how many targets it affects, what saving throws it
requires, and so on.

The following sections go into more detail on using an incantation.

#### Effect Options and Energy Points

An incantation provides different options for how to use it with your energy
points. Each effect option has a name, and the energy point cost of that option
appears in parentheses after its name. You must spend that number of energy points
to use that option, while abiding by your energy limit. If you don’t have enough
energy points left, or the cost is above your energy limit, you can’t use the
option.

Some options show a range of energy points, rather than a specific cost. To use
that option, you must spend a number of points within that point range, still
abiding by your energy limit.

Each option notes specific information about its effect, including the action
required to use it (if any), its range, and whether it requires concentration. If
an option doesn’t state that it is used as an action, a bonus action, or a
reaction, using it requires no action.

#### Components
Incantations requires verbal and somatic components. You need an arcane focus for
using an incantation effect that reproduces a spell which requires materials.

#### Duration
An option in an incantation specifies how long its effect lasts.

**Instantaneous.** If no duration is specified, the effect of an option is

instantaneous.

**Concentration.** Some effect options require concentration. This requirement is

noted with a “C” after the option’s energy point cost.

Concentrating on an incantation follows the same rules as concentrating on a spell.

This rule means you can’t concentrate on a spell and an incantation at the same
time, nor can you concentrate on two incantations at the same time.

#### Targets and Areas of Effect

Mesmer incantations use the same rules as spells for determining targets and areas
of effect. See chapter 10, "Spellcasting,” of the Player’s Handbook.

```
```

#### Saving Throws and Attack Rolls

If an incantation requires a saving throw, it specifies the type of save and the
results of a successful or failed saving throw. The DC is determined by your mesmer
casting ability.

Some incantations require you to make an attack roll to determine whether the
incantation’s effect hits its target. The attack roll uses your mesmer casting
ability.

#### Hexing targets

Some incantations cause the enemies to be under a hex, which allows the mesmer to
use special effects on that target. If you hex a creature, you cannot hex it again
until the previous hex is ended.

Your proficiency bonus determines the number of creatures you can hex at the same
time. Each hex last for a number of rounds equal to your Charisma modifier (the hex
ends at the end of your last turn).

#### Combining Incantation Effects

The effects of different mesmer incantations add together while the durations of
those incantations overlap. The effects of the same incantation used multiple times
don't combine, however. Instead, the most potent effect—such as the highest bonus—
from those incantations applies while their durations overlap.
For example, if two mesmers uses the *Illusion of Haste* on the same target, that
character gains the incantation's benefit only once.

Incantation and magic are separate effects, and therefore their benefits and
drawbacks overlap. An incantation effect that reproduces a spell is an exception to
this rule. For this incantations use the mesmer casting ability instead the
spellcasting ability and the spell save DC.

Use the "Spell to Point Cost" table to see how many energy points cost to cast the
spell (and use the incantation) or to improve an incantation using a higher tier.
For example, if you use the *Power Flux* incantation at tier 2, which reproduces
the *Disintegrate* spell, you must spend 9 energy points to do so, and if you want
to use it as a higher level for the extra damage, you must spend 10 to 13 energy
points depending on the spell level you want to replicate (A *Disintegrate* spell
casted as a 9th level would cost you 13 energy points).

##### Spell to Point Cost

## Mesmer Signets
A mesmer signet is a use of the energy that is stored in glyphs used by the
mesmers. Signets are similar to Incantations and use the same rules, but with three
important exceptions:
- You can never use your mesmer focus on a signet.
- Signets don’t require you to spend energy points to use them.
- Signets aren’t linked to a mesmer magic tradition.

#### Signet of Distraction

*Mesmer Signet*
___
As an action, you cause a creature's thoughts to wander. One creature of your
choice within 30 feet of you has disadvantage on his next Wisdom (Insight) or
Wisdom (Perception) check it makes before the start of your next turn.

#### Signet of Energy Bolt

*Mesmer Signet*
___
As an action, you create a small energy bolt to strike one creature or object that
you can see within 120 feet of you. Make a ranged spell attack against the target.
On a hit, the target takes 1d10 force damage.

The signet's damage increases by 1d10 when you reach 5th level (2d10), 11th level
(3d10), and 17th level (4d10).

#### Signet of Charming

*Mesmer Signet, requires concentration*
___
As an action, you have advantage on all Charisma checks directed at one creature of
your choice that isn't hostile toward you for 1 minute. When the signet ends, the
creature realizes that you used magic to influence its mood and becomes hostile
toward you. A creature prone to violence might attack you. Another creature might
seek retribution in other ways (at the DM's discretion), depending on the nature of
your interaction with it.

#### Signet of Hex

*Mesmer Signet*
___
As a bonus action, choose a creature within 30 feet of you which you can see. The
creature must make a Charisma saving throw. On a failed save, the creature it’s
considered hexed.

#### Signet of Illusions

*Mesmer Signet*
___
As an action, you create a sound or an image of an object within range that lasts
for 1 minute. The illusion also ends if you dismiss it as an action or use this
signet again.

If you create a sound, its volume can range from a whisper to a scream. It can be
your voice, someone else's voice, a lion's roar, a beating of drums, or any other
sound you choose. The sound continues unabated throughout the duration, or you can
make discrete sounds at different times before the spell ends.

If you create an image of an object - such as a chair, muddy footprints, or a small

chest—it must be no larger than a 5-foot cube. The image can't create sound, light,
smell, or any other sensory effect. Physical interaction with the image reveals it
to be an illusion, because things can pass through it.

If a creature uses its action to examine the sound or image, the creature can
determine that it is an illusion with a successful Intelligence (Investigation)
check against your mesmer magic save DC. If a creature discerns the illusion for
what it is, the illusion becomes faint to the creature.

#### Signet of Light

*Mesmer Signet*
___
As a bonus action, you cause bright light to radiate from your body in a 20-foot
radius and dim light for an additional 20 feet. The light can be colored as you
like. The light lasts for 1 hour, and you can extinguish it as a bonus action.

#### Signet of Prestidigitation

*Mesmer Signet*
___
As an action, you can create a minor trick within 10 feet of you from the following
list:

- You create an instantaneous and harmless sensory effect, such as a shower of

sparks, a puff of wind, faint musical notes, or an odd odor.
- You instantaneously light or snuff out a candle, a torch, or a small campfire.
- You instantaneously clean or soil an object no larger than 1 cubic foot.
- You chill, warm, or flavor up to 1 cubic foot of nonliving material for 1 hour.
- You make a color, a small mark, or a symbol appear on an object or a surface for
1 hour.
- You create a nonmagical trinket or an illusory image that can fit in your hand
and that lasts until the end of your next turn.

The effect lasts for 1 hour. You can have up to three of its non-instantaneous
effects active at a time, and you can dismiss such an effect as an action.

#### Signet of the Illusory Hand

*Mesmer Signet*
___
As an action, you create an illusory hand at a point you choose within 30 feet. The
hand lasts for 1 minute or until you dismiss it as an action. The hand vanishes if
it is ever more than 30 feet away from you or if you use this signet again.

You can use your action to control the hand and use the following actions: You can
use it to manipulate an object, open an unlocked door or container, stow or
retrieve an item from an open container, or pour the contents out of a vial. You
can move the hand up to 30 feet each time you use it.
The hand can't attack, activate magic items, or carry more than 10 pounds.

## Class Archetypes
Here you can find a new mesmer-themed fighter archetype, the Illusionary Blade.

## Martial Archetypes
Different fighters choose different approaches to perfecting their fighting
prowess. The martial archetype you choose to emulate reflects your approach.

### Illusionary Blade

The Illusionary Blade combines the martial mastery common to all fighters with a
study in the mesmer incantations and hexes.

#### Mesmer Magic

When you reach 3rd level, you augment your martial prowess with the ability to use
mesmer incantations. See the *Mesmer Incantations* section for the general rules of
incantations.

**Signets.** You learn two signets of your choice from the mesmer signet list. You
learn an additional signet of your choice at 10th level.

**Energy Points.** The Illusionary Blade table shows how many energy points you
have to use your incantations. The table also shows your energy limit. You regain
all expended energy points when you finish a long rest.

**Incantations Known.** The Illusionary Blade table shows how many incantations you
know. To use one of these incantations, you must expend a number of energy points
depending on the incantation and the tier you use.

**Mesmer Casting Ability.** Charisma is your mesmer casting ability for your
incantations. You use your Charisma whenever an incantation or signet refers to
your mesmer casting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when
setting the saving throw DC for a mesmer incantation or signet you use and when
making an attack roll with one.

<div style="text-align: center">

**Incantation save DC** = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

**Incantation attack modifier** = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

</div>

#### Weapon of Illusions

At 3rd level, you learn a ritual to infuse your weapon with mesmer magic. You
perform the ritual over the course of 1 hour, which can be done during a short
rest. The weapon must be within your reach throughout the ritual, at the conclusion
of which you touch the weapon and infuse it with the mesmer magic.

Once you have infused the weapon, your weapon physical form is distorted. You can
use it as an arcane focus for your mesmer incantations and signets. In addition, as
a bonus action you can transform it in pure energy, and then you can reform it in
your hand as a bonus action.

You can have up to two bonded weapons, but you can only reform only one at a time
with your bonus action. If you attempt to infuse a third weapon, you must break the
ritual with one of the other two.

#### Illusions of War

Beginning at 7th level, you have two additional reactions which can be used in the
same round or in separated rounds (allowing you to use three reactions before your
next turn or two reactions in two separated rounds). You can use these reactions
only to use one of your mesmer incantations. You regain any expended reactions when
you finish a short or long rest.

#### Mesmer Strike

At 10th level, you learn how to make your weapon strikes undercut a creature's
resistance to your incantations. When you hit a creature with a weapon attack, that
creature has disadvantage on the next saving throw it makes against an incantation
or signet you use before the end of your next turn.

#### Phantasmal Charge

At 15th level, you gain the ability to teleport up to 30 feet to an unoccupied
space you can see when you use your Action Surge. You can move before or after the

# Customization Options

## Multiclassing
To multiclass into a mesmer, you must have a Charisma score of 13 or higher. When
you gain your first level in the mesmer class, you gain proficiency with light
armor and simple weapons.

### Incantations and Multiclassing

Your capacity for incantations depends partly on your combined level all your
mesmer classes and partly on your individual levels in those classes. Once you have
the Mesmer Casting feature from more than one class, use the rules below. If you
multiclass but have the Mesmer Casting feature from only one class, you follow the
rules as described in that class.

**Incantations and Signets Known.** You determine what Incantations and Signets you
know for each class individually, as if you were single-classed member of that
class. If you are a mesmer 4/fighter (Illusionary Blade) 3, for example, you know 4
incantations and 4 signets.

Each incantation you know is associated with one of your classes, and you use the
mesmer casting ability of that class when you use the discipline.

**Energy Points and Energy Limit.** You determine your available energy points by
adding together all your levels in the mesmer class, and a third of your fighter
(rounded down) if you have the Mesmer Magic feature.

### Shatterer of Illusions

You have practiced techniques useful in melee combat against mesmers, gaining the
following benefits:
- When a creature within 5 feet of you uses an incantation, you can use your
reaction to make a melee weapon attack against that creature.
- When you damage a creature that is concentrating on an incantation, that creature
has disadvantage on the saving throw it makes to maintain concentration.
- You have advantage on saving throws against incantations used by creatures within
5 feet of you.
