Paradigm[edit]

Each Paradigm personified a universal virtue, standing as living archetypes that transcended the boundaries of reality.Each Paradigm, a constellation of virtues unto itself, transcended dimensional limitations, their influence a beacon that illuminated the very fabric of the multiverse. Together, the Paradigms were the epitome of excellence, a perennial reminder that, even in the vastness of the cosmos, certain principles were immutable and eternal.
Prestige Class: The Paradigm[edit]
The paradigms are mortals who have committed feats that not even the gods have been able to commit, authentic paragons of the best values that their world can offer. Its existence transcends reality and time, a state outside of any logical explanation.

All of your passive and active abilities now have a range equal to your Radiant Terrain. Also, once per round free action (while you are out of combat) you can appear anywhere your light reaches. Within your radiant terrain you will obtain a bonus to all your rolls equal to the number of people to whom your light has reached, in addition to the fact that these creatures will also obtain a bonus to all your rolls that are equal to your charisma or wisdom modifier (your choice)

You can gift class abilities that you possess to creatures allied to you and that have the same alignment as you. The creature must meet the necessary requirements to use it, such as the level or statistics necessary to obtain this ability. Alternatively, you can also choose to offer some different type of benefit that your DM feels you are capable of imparting. You can only give it one characteristic per creature and you can give a benefit to a number of creatures equal to your level.

The Eternal Perseverance[edit]
Source: FredFraiche on X |
Difficult things take a long time, impossible things take a little longer, so demonstrated the first paradigm of Eternal Perseverance, the mortal who refused to die and bled the gods who had taken everything from him. Many labeled it as something impossible, something that would never happen, but that mortal taught us this: "Permanence, perseverance, and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragements, and impossibilities: that is what distinguishes the strong souls from the weak ones." Since that feat, other possessors of Eternal Perseverance were born, warriors who remain faithful to their ideals and no matter how much they were destroyed they never abandoned their values, living under the motto "The only fight that is lost is the one that is abandoned."
You reached that spark; your long path has forged you with unmatched courage and perseverance. Despite everything you lost along the way, there were surely times when you simply wanted to throw in the towel, give up, say that there is no point in continuing to try and that it is impossible. But despite all those doubts, you decided to get up one more day to fight, then one more hour, one more minute, and then another second. Despite carrying your mistakes and the things you lost, you continued to move forward because staying on the floor wasn't going to change that. You got up and hit the wall again and again until your hands bled, and you used that pain as fuel. In the end, you managed to break it. That was your Eternal Perseverance... the one that shines like gold in your darkest moments.
Martyr of Perseverance[edit]
At level 22th, you are the proof that perseverance overcomes any adversity, adapting to any damage received, since you must persevere in the face of any circumstance. When you receive 2 or more times a type of damage from any attack, you gain resistance to that type of damage, if you already have resistance, you gain immunity to that damage. If you have immunity to that type of damage, you can choose to heal yourself hit points equal to the damage dealt, or return the same damage to the person who hurt you. All of these benefits last until the end of the fight or you are killed.
Immortal Perseverance[edit]
It's ok if you can't lift the heaviest metal, lifting your own weight once you fall to get up is more than enough, death waits for that moment where you don't get up to take you, but your Perseverance makes no matter how much death puts its claws on you, your courage will lift you once again. At 22th level, if you fail 3 death saving throws, your body will ignite from the glow of your soul roaring that this is not over and you will rise again as if you had just finished a long rest in your next turn and for each time you die and come back, you gain a +5 bonus to everything (stats, AC, saving and attack rolls, etc). . If you die outside of battle, your body will take a full day to recover. You can do this a number of times equal to your paradigm level.
Consistency Can Move Mountains[edit]
Your relentless path has made your mere presence alter reality itself, making you capable of resisting the impossible no matter what happens, because your perseverance is capable of moving mountains. At 25th level, each time you fail an attack roll against an enemy or a spell, you gain +5 attack and damage against that creature. In case the creature has immunity to the damage you inflict, after you hit 4 attacks this immunity will be reduced to resistance. If the target has resistance to your damage, it will be reduced and will receive normal damage. If the target has no resistance, it will become vulnerable to your damage. If it is vulnerable, your damage is quadrupled. These benefits only apply to you.
Undeniable and Unbreakable[edit]
You have become the paragon of the enduring example that if you want you can achieve anything, making even the gods useless before your great demonstration of what true resistance is. At 28th level, you become immune to all status effects, and for each failed saving throw, you gain a +3 bonus to all saving throws. In addition, your legendary resistance is incredibly improved, making it possible for you to use it an indefinite number of times a day and these no longer cost you legendary actions, although they are still under the same requirements.
True Pereverance[edit]
You have reached the highest point of perseverance, one that eclipses the gods themselves, because you are the true embodiment of what perseverance is. At 30th level, you become immortal, making it impossible for you to age even by magical means. You also become immune to any reduction in maximum hit points, stats, AC, or CR. you gain the ability to negate immortals, completely negating any effects that would cause them to avoid their end. Finally, all benefits of this class can be applied to all your allies within a 100-foot range centered on you, resurrection and legendary resistances do not apply.
The Unbreakable Will[edit]
from the deepest sufferings, from the worst known ailments, even the worst destinies were not enough to break the paradigm of unbreakable will, it is the one who remained standing from the worst wounds, the one who crawled, was destroyed, humiliated and hated that being who made the gods themselves tremble after maintaining his will in every defeat, every fall and, above all, every loss.
Few are those that can be a feat done by those worldly mortals from whom nothing was expected, demonstrating that destiny is not written and that it cannot hold you back, nor your purpose, much less your will.
The requirement to be a paradigm of will is to have broken your chains so that you are not tied to destiny because you do not want to be anyone else but you, and no one will decide your path, thanks to that your will is respected by everyone who listens. his name for the vast seas of the multiverse.
Will Stronger Than Steel[edit]
Your will went from being the fuel that moves you to being a universal law, an immutable fact, making you overcome the most impossible situations, and the most abominable monstrosities that seek to break you. At level 22, you gain the following benefits:
- You become completely immune to Frightened, Charmed, and any effects that affect your psyche. Any creatures that attempt to use these effects on you will be affected by the ability, as if they had targeted themselves. This immunity cannot be reduced by any means, being one of the only things that will always be impossible to change for the paradigms of absolute ingenuity.
- No adversity will hold you back, making you immune to any environmental effect no matter how extreme. This reaches the point where you can be existing in absolute void, able to bend the elements of the elemental planes, or not be affected by the shadowfell miasma. You will obtain all these resistances when you are in extreme environments, and they will stay with you forever.
- choose a statistic. Whenever you make a roll with this statistic, you will count on having obtained a natural 20. this does not apply to attack rolls. You can take an additional stat at 28th level.
Transcendental Determination[edit]
Making your will unbreakable is not achieved only by enduring the worst that the world has to destroy you, it is a path that begins from the heart, since in it you protect the dreams that drive you to transcend in order to fulfill them, making it impossible you can fall in combat. At level 22, you have access to the state of determination. You can activate this state as an additional action, obtaining the following benefits:
- you get a +2 for each attack hit, or a +4 if this attack is magical, this bonus will apply to all your rolls, including damage rolls. This accumulates indefinitely.
- as a free action on each of your turns, you can completely nullify a creature's action.
- all your damage rolls take 25d12 additional damage
You can use the state of determination a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus.

- As a free action, you can make yourself or another creature succeed on a roll that makes

At 25th level, you gain the ability to create objects or even life by shaping the creation with your will. You can create anything, but your limit is to create any creature with a CR less than 20, a wonderful legendary level item. Alternatively, you can create more knowledge to help you through your hardships, which allows you to take another subclass of any class you have other than the Paradigm, but you can only have one subclass using this benefit. The duration of the creation of what you want may vary at the discretion of your DM.
Dominant will[edit]
Your will has come to dominate everything that tries to subdue you, making you almost unstoppable. At 28th level, you become immune to all status effects, gain resistance to all damage, and can take a single characteristic from another paradigm subclass other than Absolute Wits if you are not a full caster. In addition, your ac increases equal to your will bonus, you get an additional multiattack/multicasting.

The Absolute Ingenuity[edit]
Source: Angle on Pinterest |
In the darkest times or in the most confusing times, those are born who have the ability to see beyond, to have the means and the tricks to reveal the means, to seek the impossible paths and over time break our understanding with the greatest feats. Incredible visions of man and gods, surpassing the limits of mind, time and space to become one with energy, based on understanding and extension, proclaim their place as a paradigm of absolute ingenuity.
Stories tell that the first paradigm of ingenuity managed to see beyond the veil of immortality, overcoming death, leaving the gods behind, escaping time and surprising the unmatched weight of reality.
To be a paradigm of absolute ingenuity, you must have impossible achievements where even the greatest minds would have difficulty understanding your being; you must aim for infinite growth because excellence is not enough.
Special requirements[edit]
- Being A Full Caster.Knowledge beyond mortality can only be achieved by those who dedicated their lives to the search for this.
More Expert than Immortals[edit]
To transcend mortal knowledge you must first master it in its absoluteness. When you start at level 22, you gain the following benefits:
- You gain proficiency with all skills, tools and games. If you already have proficiency with a skill, you gain expertise with that skill. In case you already have expertise with a skill, whenever you need to make a check with that skill, you have an automatic success without needing to roll the dice. all
- All of your spells are cast with advantage, and enemies have disadvantage on all saving throws against spells you cast. Additionally, your spells cannot be dispelled by any means
- Choose a list of spells from a class other than yours. you can use their spells as if they were your class. you gain another additional spell list at level 25, and at level 30 you have access to all spell lists.
The Book of the All Connoisseur[edit]
As you fused yourself with mana, your spellbook transformed in the process. Full of magical power and arcane knowledge, it now harbors all the secrets of the Weave.
Your spellbook becomes a magical object of strange powers that only you know how to unravel. At level 22, your spellbook is permanently under the effects of the following spells: alarm, arcane lock, illusory script and magic mouth. The alarm only triggers if someone that you do not allow touches or reads your spellbook. The arcane lock is not suppressed with the use of the knock spell. The illusory script makes it to where if someone were to read your spellbook it would just be utter nonsense. The magic mouth states a message, within the limits of the spell, of your choice when the book is opened.
But at level 30, your spellbook has been bathed in your essence and arcane energy for so long that it has slowly been transformed into something more than just a book. It's you, or at least part of you. Your spellbook can be absorbed inside your body without any harm when you wish, and it becomes indetectable when in that state. Furthermore, your spellbook becomes an Artifact level object with 2 minor beneficial properties and 2 major beneficial properties. In addition, you can use it as an Arcane Focus and can cast any spell without material components worth of 400 gold or less.
While using this book as your spell focus, you can have a number of spellcasting spells with concentration equal to your spellcasting modifier at the same time without having to make a constitution (concentration) saving throw even if you are forced to. At level 30th, you can concentrate on an unlimited number of spells.
You can also cast only one spell at a time infinitely. The infinite spell will last indefinitely and will not consume any more spell slots while you are focused on this spell. The infinite spell will not consume your actions on your next turns either.
Infinite Intellect[edit]
On your path through absolute knowledge, you have managed to break the barrier of mortality both in body and mind, since the limited mortal consciousness is limited in comparison to yours, which can rival the divine. At 25th level, your intelligence, wisdom, and charisma statistics rise to 30 if they are no longer 30, and if you already have a statistic at 30, you add a +5 to all rolls made with that statistic. From now on you have no limit on any of the three aforementioned statistics and as long as you have the ability to increase ability points, these three statistics will increase by 2.
In addition to this poison, choose 6 lvl1, 5 lvl2, 4 lvl3, 2 lvl4 and 1 lvl5 spells from your spell list. Now you can use these three spells at will. In case one of the chosen spells is a casting time of an action, additional action or reaction, you can use it as a free action, but only one per turn

The Indomitable Force[edit]
To become a Paradigm of Unyielding Strength, one must possess more than an imposing physique; it requires a will that defies the fiercest storms and a spirit that stands unbroken in the face of adversity. The path to such mastery involves confronting challenges that tear at the very fabric of resilience, forging a character that refuses to yield to the most relentless trials.
Those who seek to reach such a pinnacle must embrace the philosophy that each challenge is an opportunity to grow stronger, each failure is a lesson propelling forward, and each limit is an illusion worthy of defiance. Unyielding Strength resides not only in musculature but in the unwavering conviction that resonates in every fiber of being.
The aspirant to Paradigm of Unyielding Strength boldly declares: "I am the one who rises as the strongest being in existence, a force that defies the very essence of time. I am the storm that breaks the chains of weakness, the flame that burns with the intensity of a thousand suns. In my being, unyielding will rises as an eternal roar, announcing that I am more than muscles and bones; I am the very essence of unbreakable fortitude."
