Heavenly Restriction (Jujutsu Kaisen Supplement)
Heavenly Restriction
Restrictions
The Heavenly Restriction only happens to living beings with physical bodies, although even if someone meets those standards it's still extremely rare. When making a character for this class, make sure it's not one of the following creature types: Undead, construct or elemental.
Pure Bodies
Creatures born with the 'perfect' Heavenly Restriction have been denied access to cursed energy or spellcasting, possessing no affinity for either. However, in exchange for that, they have been blessed with an extreme physique. Due to having no jujutsu talent, they are generally shamed by most of jujutsu society and suffer during childhood. Perfect Heavenly Restrictions tend to develop unique personalities due to the ostracism and hardships they've encountered in life.
Creating a Heavenly Restriction

Restrained Body
Starting at 1st level, your body is simply built differently than others. You have supernatural strength, speed, and durability. You gain the following traits:
Supernatural Body. You gain a +2 in your Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, or Wisdom scores. You can pick another score to increase by +2 at 5th, 9th, 13th, and 17th.
In addition, your Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, and Wisdom maximums increase to 22. These maximums increase to 24 at 5th level, to 26 at 11th level, and to 30 at 17th level.
Invisible. You cannot be tracked by magical means. Abilities that sense ki, cursed energy, magic, or anything of the sort don't work for you.
Pure Body. Your body has no traces of any kind of mystical energy, meaning you can't multiclass or learn magic or cursed energy, and if you already had abilities that use magic or cursed energy somehow, you lose them (Ex: You can not multiclass into the Jujutsu Sorcerer class).
Unarmored Mastery
Also at 1st level, due to your enhanced body and senses, you have mastered the art of fighting wearing next to nothing. You gain the listed benefits as long as you are unarmored:
Unarmored Defense. As long as you are not wearing armor or wielding a shield, your AC becomes 10 + your Dexterity modifier + your Constitution modifier.
Unarmored Movement. Your speed increases by 20 feet while you are not wearing armor or wielding a shield. This bonus increases when you reach certain Heavenly Restriction levels, as shown in the Heavenly Restriction table.
In addition, you gain the ability to move and run along vertical surfaces and across liquids on your turn without falling during the move.
Martial Arts
Also at 1st level, your practice of martial arts gives you mastery of combat styles that use unarmed strikes, melee martial, and simple weapons.
- You can use Dexterity instead of Strength for the attack and damage rolls of your unarmed strikes, melee martial, and simple weapons.
- You can roll a 2d4 in place of the normal damage of your unarmed strikes, melee martial, and simple weapons. This die changes as you gain Heavenly Restriction levels, as shown in the Martial Arts column of the Heavenly Restriction table.
- When you use the Attack action with an unarmed strike, melee martial, or simple weapon on your turn, you can make one unarmed strike as a bonus action (For example, if you take the Attack action and attack with a quarterstaff, you can also make an unarmed strike as a bonus action, assuming you haven't already taken a bonus action this turn.).
- You gain access to Sorcerer Weapons. You may use your martial arts damage die instead of the sorcerer weapon damage die if you choose so.
Fighting Style
At 2nd level, you have acquired your very own fighting style. You gain one of the following fighting styles of your choice:
Blind Warrior. You have blindsight with a range in feet equal to 5 times your proficiency bonus. In that range, you can see invisible targets and anything that isn't behind total cover or hidden from you.
Classical Swordplay. While wielding a finesse weapon and no other weapons, you gain a +1 bonus to your attack rolls and AC so long as you are not wearing Armor or wielding a Shield.
Deadeye. You gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls you make with ranged weapons.
Dual Wielding. When you take the Attack action while two-weapon fighting, you can make the single bonus attack with your off-hand weapon as part of your Attack action, instead of your bonus action, adding your ability modifier to the damage of this attack.
Great Weapon Fighting. You add your proficiency bonus to damage rolls with Heavy Weapons.
Heavyweight Fighting. While you are wielding a heavy melee weapon, you gain a +1 bonus to damage rolls and you have advantage on Strength (Athletics) checks to Shove.

Lightfoot Fighter. While wielding a light melee weapon, you gain a +10 to your walking speed and do not take opportunity attacks from the last creature you attacked on your turn as long as it was made with a light weapon.
Point-Blank Shooter. When you make a ranged attack against a target within 5 feet of you, you do not have disadvantage in the attack roll. When you make an opportunity attack, you can replace its one melee attack with one ranged attack.
Protector. When a creature you can see hits you, or a target within 5 feet, with a melee attack, you can use a reaction to add your proficiency bonus to the target's Armor Class against that attack. You must be wielding a shield or a melee weapon.
Sharpened Shot. You gain a bonus to damage rolls you make using ranged weapons equal to your proficiency bonus.
Improvised Fighting. You are considered proficient with improvised weapons, and can treat them as Sorcerer Weapons.
Whenever you finish a long rest, you may change your fighting style for another one of your choice.
Body Improvements
At 2nd level, your body is constantly growing and improving, becoming better by the day.
Body Points. You gain a number of body points equal to your Heavenly Restriction level. They are used to obtain body improvements, and are spent whenever you pick a body improvement with them.
Obtaining Body Points. You gain another body point whenever you gain a level in the heavenly restriction class.
Spending Body Points. These points can be used to obtain body improvements, all listed down at the Body Improvements List section. They are spent whenever you pick a body improvement.
You cannot switch a body improvement once chosen.
Improved Body. Whenever you reach 3 body improvements, you gain an Ability Score Improvement. However, you can only use it to raise scores and not for picking feats. This bonus may only be applied once for each Body Improvement category.
Battle Master
At 2nd level, due to the immense training you have done with your body, you have learned how to use battle maneuvers.
Battle Maneuvers. You have a number of battle maneuvers equal to half your Heavenly Restriction level. At the end of a long rest, you may change out one of your battle maneuvers for another you meet the requirements of.
Stamina. Some maneuvers utilize stamina points. You have a number of stamina points equal to your level + your Constitution modifier.
Effort Dice. Some maneuvers utilize effort dice. Your effort dice starts out as a d6.
Your effort dice is increased to a d8 at 5th level, to a d10 at 11th level and to a d12 at 17th level.
Some of your battle maneuvers will force a creature to make a saving throw. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:
Battle maneuver save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Strength or Dexterity modifier (your choice)
Uncanny Mindset
At 3rd level, with the constant increase of your own body, your mind has evolved too. You developed a lot of uncanny mindsets, which aid you through battle in many different ways.
You gain two Uncanny Mindsets of your choice that you meet the requirements of.
You gain two more uncanny mindsets at 5th level, 7th, 10th, 13th and 18th level.
Versatile Mind. Whenever you gain a level in this class, you may change one of your mindsets for another mindset you qualify for.
Body Training. Whenever you pick two mindsets of different types (such as picking one Strength mindset and one Speed Mindset), you gain a number of body points equal to half your proficiency bonus (rounded down). If you choose two mindsets of the same type, you gain a number of body points equal to your proficiency bonus, but these Body Points may only be spent on Body Improvements that match the type of Mindset you chose. This only works when you gain mindsets, not when you switch them.
Enhanced Senses
At 3rd level, your Heavenly Restriction has made your senses way more powerful than a regular person's.
- Smell. Your sense of smell is far beyond human, being more comparable to that of trained dogs and other animals. You can easily tell different sources of smells from each other, such as foliage, people, water and other substances, in a range equal to 20 times your Wisdom modifier feet.
- Sight. Your sense of sight is much more attentive to detail, like those of birds of prey. You can see twice as far as a normal person with fine detail, making so that even the smallest things don't go past over you.
- Hearing. Your hearing is, contrary to most humans, just as reliable if not even more than your other senses. Even when you can't rely on sight, your hearing is enough to maintain you aware of your surroundings. While you are not deafened, you gain blindsight equal to 30 ft.
Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th level, and again at 6th, 8th, 12th, 14th, 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. You can't increase an ability score above your ability score limit using this feature.
You may also ignore this increase to instead gain a Cursed Feat.
Semi-Awakened Body
At 5th level, your body has grown stronger, its phisique now absorving more of the restriction. You gain a +2 in your Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, or Wisdom scores, up to your maximum.
Additionally, you receive proficiency in Strength or Dexterity saving throws, you cannot choose a saving throw you're already proficient with. If you were aready proficient in both saving throws, you gain proficiency with one other saving throw you weren't proficient with before.
Extra Attack
At 5th level, you can now attack twice instead of once when you take the Attack action. This increases to three times instead of twice at 11th level, and to four at 17th level.
Resistant
At 7th level, your newfound abilities and body has allowed you to resist certain area effects, such as a blue dragon’s lightning breath or a fireball spell. Choose one of the following ability scores:
- Brawn - Strength
- Evasion - Dexterity
- Endurance - Constitution
- Discernment - Intelligence
- Intuition - Wisdom
- Repulsion - Charisma
When you are subjected to an effect that allows you to make a saving throw of the chosen ability to only take half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail.
At 11th and 17th levels, you can choose one additional saving throw.
Faster Recovery
At 9th level, your stamina recovers much faster than it used to. While in combat, you regain 1 stamina point at the beginning of your turn, up to your maximum.
The combat must be one where your life is at risk.
Heavenly Undetection
At 11th level, your body is like a divine object none shall harm, not even the gods themselves. You cannot be targeted by the sure hit effect of a Domain Expansion, and cannot be detected by one while inside one (Ex: If you are trapped inside a domain that forces you to make a Constitution saving throw as its sure hit, you won't have to make the saving throw). You may also freely pass through barriers made of cursed energy of any kind, suffering no ill effects for doing so.
This, however, doesn’t work on sure-hit effects which target objects, or creatures without cursed energy, such as Malevolent Shrine.
Additionally, you gain 1 Object Awareness and whenever you gain Object Awareness, the amount you gain is doubled. If you gain Object Outline Awareness then you also gain Soul Outline Perception as well.
Perfected Fighting Style
At 15th level, you have mastered your fighting style, creating a new personal improved version.

This attack is made with advantage.
Perfected Great Weapon Fighting. You add your proficiency bonus twice to damage rolls with Heavy Weapons.
Perfected Heavyweight Fighting. While you are wielding a heavy melee weapon, you gain a +2 bonus to damage rolls and you have advantage on Strength (Athletics) checks to Shove.
