-Mirror's ReflectionYou reflect an illusory image of yourself into another unoccupied space within 15 feet that you can see. You are treated as being in both spaces until the start of your next turn.

Your mirror self mimics your actions exactly, but any effects you generate come from only one of your positions; you decide which each time you act.

Anything that targets or would affect your reflection affects you and uses your statistics. Something that would target or affect both of you affects you only once.

When you move, you choose which square to move from, but the mirror effect ends (see below).

Some events force you to determine which image is the real you, and then end the effect and cause your mirror self to disappear; this happens automatically at the start of your next turn. It also happens if you choose to move out of your space. Other benefits of this implement add more events that can end the reflection. The effect also ends when you fall unconscious, at which point you decide which version is truly you.

-Exploit VulnerabilitySelect a creature you can see and attempt an Esoteric Lore check against a standard DC for its level, as you retrieve the right object from your esoterica and use your implement to empower it. You gain the following effects until you Exploit Vulnerabilities again.

Critical Success You remember the creature’s weaknesses, and as you empower your esoterica, you have a flash of insight that grants even more knowledge about the creature. You learn all of the creature’s resistances, weaknesses, and immunities, including the amounts of the resistances and weaknesses and any unusual weaknesses or vulnerabilities, such as what spells will pass through a golem’s antimagic. You can exploit either the creature’s mortal weakness or personal antithesis (see below). Your unarmed and weapon Strikes against the creature also become magical if they weren’t already.

Success You recall an important fact about the creature, learning its highest weakness (or one of its highest weaknesses, if it has multiple with the same value) but not its other weaknesses, resistances, or immunities. You can exploit either the creature’s mortal weakness or personal antithesis. Your unarmed and weapon Strikes against the creature also become magical if they weren’t already.

Failure Failing to recall a salient weakness about the creature, you instead attempt to exploit a more personal vulnerability. You can exploit only the creature’s personal antithesis. Your unarmed and weapon Strikes against the creature also become magical if they weren’t already.

Critical Failure You couldn’t remember the right object to use and become distracted while you rummage through your esoterica. You become flat-footed until the beginning of your next turn.

Mortal Weakness:
Your unarmed and weapon Strikes activate the highest weakness you discovered with Exploit Vulnerability, even though the damage type your weapon deals doesn’t change. This damage affects the target of your Exploit Vulnerability, as well as any other creatures of the exact same type, but not other creatures with the same weakness.

Personal Antithesis:
-Only the target creature gains a weakness against your unarmed and weapon Strikes equal to 2 + half your level.

-Implement's EmpowermentWhen you Strike, you can trace mystic patterns with an implement you’re holding to empower the Strike, causing it to deal 2 additional damage per weapon damage die.

-Dubious KnowledgeWhen you fail (but don’t critically fail) a Recall Knowledge check using any skill, you learn a bit of true knowledge and a bit of erroneous knowledge, but you don’t have any way to differentiate which is which.

-Diverse Lore-You can take a -2 penalty to your check to Recall Knowledge with Esoteric Lore to Recall Knowledge about any topic

-When you succeed at your check to Exploit a Vulnerability, compare the result of your Esoteric Lore check to the DC to Recall Knowledge for that creature; if that number would be a success or a critical success, you gain information as if you had succeeded at the Recall Knowledge check.

-Intimidating GlareYou can Demoralize with a mere glare. When you do, Demoralize loses the auditory trait and gains the visual trait, and you don’t take a penalty if the creature doesn’t understand your language.

-Terrifying ResistanceGain +1 Circumstance bonus to saves against spells and effects for 24 hours if you succeed on intimidating someone.

-Scroll ThaumaturgyYou can activate scrolls of any magical tradition, using your thaumaturge class DC for the scroll’s DC, rather than a particular spell DC. If a spell is on the spell list for multiple traditions, you choose which tradition to use at the time you activate the scroll. You can draw and activate scrolls with the same hand holding an implement, much like you can for esoterica.

-Steeped in HistoryYou gain a +1 circumstance bonus to Recall Knowledge about the Magaambya, the tenets or history of your branch, and members of your branch.

At 11th level, this increases to a +2 circumstance bonus.

-Breached DefensesLearn enemy resistance when you Exploit, can choose to ignore resistance instead of triggering weakness.

-Esoteric Warden Gain +1 Status bonus to AC and saves against the next Attack or Spell/Ability from the target of your Exploit if your Exploit was a success.

Gain +2 if your Exploit was a critical success.

-ToughnessIncrease your maximum Hit Points by your level. The DC of recovery checks is equal to 9 + your dying condition value.
