Class:Duelist

Honor-bound and honest to the core, Duelists are often judges and referees for duels as well as devoted warriors. Duelists prize the honor of their family above any sort of personal gain and thus strive for excellence in everything that they do. A true Duelist wins the battle before it has begun. Strategy and personal perfection are the Samurai's way. If you are a Duelist be calm, focused, well spoken and confident in yourself.

Tea Ceremony is done in collaboration with up to 1 other creature (although they do not need to have Tea Ceremony). It requires willing and active participation from all targets. As part of Tea Ceremony, you must ask three questions about the alignment, motives, or intentions of the group. Each participant (including yourself) must individually answer these questions. The questions are asked one at a time, and each participant must answer before the next question is asked. If anyone refuses to answer truthfully, the Tea Ceremony fails and all participants are vulnerable to mana drain and mana drain is boosted against them for 24 hours. This occurs once everyone has answered the latest question or immediately if someone refuses to answer whatsoever. If the Tea Ceremony is successful, all participants are resistant to mana drain for 24 hours and suffer no negative effects of mana loss other than death and unconsciousness. Tea Ceremony can only be performed once per long rest.

Note: Tea Ceremony detects only whether the participants believe their answers to be true, not whether or not they are.

Note: If an effect such as Lie is used to deceive the Tea Ceremony, it continues as if the lie were true.
