Bridget Bishop [Patricia McDowell's Articial Persona]

Persona Name: Bridget Bishop

Persona Type: Artificial Persona

Persona's Arcana: The Devil

Owner: Patricia McDowell


Bridgette Bishop appears as an innocent young magus with long blonde hair, a low-cut shirt and a short skirt much like the legends behind her made her out to be a temptress. Her attire is in pastel shades of blue and pink, happy colors for her arcane wardrobe complete with a cape, steepled cap, and a cloak clasp bearing a pentagram. Her demeanor is emotive and bubbly with a flirtatious vibe and she is seen wielding a short wizard's staff.

Persona Background: Bridget Bishop was the first person to be executed during the Salem witchcraft trials. In Salem folklore, she is portrayed as a feisty, fun-loving, lusty, innkeeper who can't seem to keep herself out of trouble. Recently, historians have painted a somewhat different picture, owing to the confusion with Sarah Bishop who also appears in the court records of the witch trials. Indisputably, the Bridget Bishop who was tried and hanged possessed a quick wit and independent spirit that could not be crushed by the court of Oyer and Terminer.

Strengths: Fire, Ice

Weaknesses: Dark, Electricity

Special Ability

Ability Name: Persona Overdose
Persona Name: Bridget Bishop
Description: Rogues get an ability called “Persona Overdose” that can be used once per battle. In this mode, for three turns, the Rogues get access to a completely new skillset, swapping it for their previous one for that time limit. The new skills are unlocked as the Rogue gains skills normally, and they can be anything, so long as the skill has the same tier as the tier of the skill in their normal skillset. For example, your first skill is Tier 1 in your normal skillset. That means your first skill in your “Persona Overdose” skillset can be any skill as long as it is Tier 1. You can also change your strengths and weaknesses in this mode as long as you have the same amount of strengths and weaknesses as your original skillset does. Your available skills in “Persona Overdose” also are unlocked at the same time you unlock your normal skills. So if a Rogue only has five skills unlocked in their regular skillset, they can only have access to the first five skills in their Overdose mode. Once the three turns are up, their skillset reverts to normal, and for the next three turns, your active Persona skills will be randomized each post, as well as the target for said skill, meaning you will not have any control over what your Persona does for the duration of the three turns.

During Persona Overdose Bridget's appearance warps into the other legends that were told of her. Her hair grows, her body changes, and her clothes morph into more revealing and sinful forms of their former shape. Bridget now takes the appearance of what she was feared as: a powerful witch and a mistress of the Satan. Her outfit leaves little to the imagination and she is adorned with pagan artifacts and sigils such as beaded horse-tail tassels, crumpled peacock feathers, and a necklace of wampum beads along with arcane runes of goat's blood that adorn her body. Her demeanor in this form is cruel, violent, and destructive as she casts spells and abilities through various magic circles.

Strengths: Wind, Electricity

Weaknesses: Light, Fire

Passive Boosts: +15% to Buff/Debuff skills

Persona Overdose Skillset:

Skill 5: (Unlocked once unlocking your fifth skill in your original skillset; Must be a Tier 3 Skill or Lower)
Skill 6: (Unlocked once unlocking your sixth skill in your original skillset; Must be a Tier 3 Skill or Lower)
Skill 7: (Unlocked once unlocking your seventh skill in your original skillset; Must be a Tier 3 Skill or Lower)

Soul Skill Name: Wabbajack
Persona Name: Bridget Bishop
Tier: Tier 1
Cost: 8 SP
Type of Damage: Random (See description)
Description: Patricia casts a spell of pure, raw and uncontained magic originating from her Soulbound Weapon, appearing as an explosive waves of pure mana before manifesting as one of the main five elements upon striking a single opponent dealing light elemental damage. The type of damage dealt is rolled for on the below table:

1 - Fire
2 - Ice
3 - Lighting
4 - Earth
5 - Wind

So it's basically randomized. I would say slapping with the ailment needs to go. It's still a bit much for Tier 1 to have both together. Especially with randomizing gives you a chance of not hitting any of the enemy resistances.

The Ailment chance on the Soul Skill has been removed and the main skills have been updated, everything else remains as-is.

Make the Soul Skill 8 SP.

Approved.
