• (a) Dungeoneer's pack or (b) Explorer pack
• Your god arc
• One trinket

Starting at the 1st level you have your god arc, and it is yours and yours alone. Your long blade type does 1d12 slashing damage with each attack.

Whenever someone besides you attempts to wield it, the God Arc goes into a berserk rage, since only you are allowed to wield it now. The creature attempting to wield it must make a Constitution saving throw (DC=11). On a failed to save, the creature takes 10d8 necrotic damage and half on a successful. Any creature smaller than medium automatically fails this save. This damage cannot be reduced, regardless of resistances

Starting at the 1st level You have as many Oracle Points as shown in the table and after a long or short rest, your points will return to that amount. It is also the max amount of Oracle points you can have at that time, and any Oracle points you gain that exceed this amount is wasted.

Oracle points are used for many things as a God eater, mainly so you can use abilities and shoot your gun.

Starting at 2nd level change your melee form into its gun form you can do this as a bonus action. Your gun type is the Shotgun type. When you shoot a blast you can shoot 3 bullets at once each bullet does 1d4 and each uses an Oracle point. The amount of bullets you can shoot at once increases by to 4 at the 5th level, to 5 at the 10th level, 6 at the 15th level, and 8 at the 20th level. The range of your gun is 20ft to 60ft.

Starting at the 3rd level your weapon you can Devour living things. As an action, you can devour as an attack that does 1d8 piercing damage. If this attack would kill an opponent you also gain oracle points equal to double the damage dealt. You can also devour recently defeated opponents to gain oracle points equal to the damage that would normally be dealt. When it Devours, it reverts to it's Devouring form for the attack and returns to its previous form when the attack has ended.

Starting at the 5th level you have learned how to swing your sword fast enough that the attack hits twice. As an action, Before you make an attack roll you choose to use this. after you make your attack roll, on a successful hit you roll base damage dice for that weapon after your original attack, this second hit doesn't get any added damage from other abilities. You may use this once per short or long rest. The number of times you may use this increases to 2 at the 15th level.

Starting at the 6th level, as an action, you collect energy at the tip of your blade. This allows you to swing your sword and create a shock wave straightforward and it will cut anything in a 20ft line. Opponents getting hit must make a dexterity check DC: 10 + Strength modifier. On a successful saving throw, the opponent takes Damage, on a failed saving throw the opponent takes your weapons normal damage and are knocked prone. This attack uses 2 Oracle points to use it.

Starting at the 7th level, As a bonus action, You can now hone your blade with your energy. By spending one oracle point you focus energy at the edge of your blade and gives you an extra d6 to your attack. You may stack this up to 3 times at once, and has a cooldown of 1 minute. The number of times you may stack this increases to 4 at level 10, 5 at level 14, and 6 at level 17.

Starting at the 9th level as an action you may open a bullet cartridge at the base of your weapon (between the hilt and the blade) and shoot out tiny bullets that will embed into someone or something and blow up after 30 seconds. This does 1d12 damage to the thing it is in, and anyone or anything in a 10ft radius makes a Dexterity saving throw, DC:13.

Starting at the 13th level, You take the action from this turn and your next turn and on your next turn, you swing your blade down with extream force doing 4d12 slashing damage. This attack uses up 10 oracle points. This attack does 6d12 at the 18th level.

Starting at the 20th level, as an action you stab your sword into the ground and it creates a 20ft radius dome (has a blue tint to it) around it and anything (except you) that steps in this dome will slow down, and takes 1 turn in 2 rounds of combat (as long as they are in the dome).
