Body and Soul Hit Points
All creatures have two sets of hit points, their soul hit points and body hit points. Both body and soul hit points have the exact same amount. Whenever a creature takes damage only their body hit points are affected, unless the damage is considered Soul Harming, which then also reduces the Soul Hit Points.
If a creature has lost soul hit points, they can only regain body hit points up to the current amount of soul hit points they have. Body hit points cannot be higher than soul hit points at any time, with body hit points being lowered if soul hit points are affected.
Soul Harming
Those who can harm the soul are extremely dangerous people, being able to even invade the afterlife of someone. Whenever a creature deals damage considered Soul Harming, it also damages the soul of the target. There are 2 types of Soul Harming damage.
Damage that affects the soul of a target will reduce their soul hit points.
Minor Soul Harming
:/
Major Soul Harming
For damage to be considered Major Soul Harming it needs to drastically change or alter the shape of the target’s soul. For instance, the
Idle Transfiguration technique and the
Split Soul Katana.
Damage that is considered Major Soul Harming reduces a creature’s soul hit points directly, ignoring Temporary hit points, resistance or immunity, and or reductions. Hit points lost by damage that is considered Major Soul Harming are not regained when body hit points would be regained. At the end of a long rest, instead of regaining all of their soul hit points they regain an amount of soul hit points equal to their Charisma score. If a creature lost soul hit points of a limb, they are not regained in the long rest if the limb has 0 soul hit points.
Soul Knowledge
To understand the soul is a very daunting and extremely difficult task. Gaining knowledge about such a thing is something that is mostly practical, however through certain methods you may learn about it even in theory.
Soul Knowledge
| Soul Knowledge | Benefit |
|---|
| Soul Intuition (10+ Soul Knowledge) | You have become knowledgeable about the working of the soul, whether you can perceive it or not, you are able to deduce if an ability or feature relating to the soul has been used after seeing it. You can deduce whether a feature, once it has been successfully used, was related to the soul, such as the Resonance of the Straw Doll Technique |
| Teachings of the Soul (30+ Soul Knowledge) | You have learned enough about the soul now to be able to teach others the basics. Over the course of a long rest you may create a book or other learning device which functions as the Book Of Souls does. You cannot benefit from your own book. |
| Soul Outline Perception (40+ Soul Knowledge) | You finally learned how to see the outline of your own soul, You now have the opportunity to learn how to heal from Soul Harming attacks. |
| Soul Separation (80+ Soul Knowledge) | [idk if im going to add this] |
| Resonance of the Soul (100+ Soul Knowledge) | You have ascended on your understanding of the soul, now being able to resonate with a soul from someone you have defeated. Whenever you defeat someone in a one on one or the main contributor of a group fight, if the enemy at least did your Constitution Stat in damage (minimum of 10) then at the end of the fight, you connect to that person one last time at the border between life and death. Here you are able to talk with them for a minute (or less if you want to end it sooner) and using this time you can try your best to learn any information you may be lacking, refer to them with respect or spite or answer their questions. Once the time is up, you lose that connection but no time passes in the real world. |

Soul Outline Awareness
Soul Outline Awareness is the hardest aspect of the soul to master. Only those who have incredible senses, are a vessel, or were naturally blessed are able to achieve this. If you go through this form of awakening, you are able to possess more than 39(40 or higher) Soul Knowledge.
