Self-discovery
you are learning new things about yourself every day. when you show a talent for a new tool or weapon you quickly pick up on it
when using new tools you have a chance of gaining proficiency with it. When you make a skill check with a new weapon or tool if you roll a natural 19 or 20 you gain proficiency with the item. this does not apply to wisdom, constitution, or intelligence based skill checks. This feat only applies to tools and weapons previously unused by your character. if your character has made a check with the same weapon type or tool type before this feat does not apply. Proficency does not apply to weapon archtypes, just the specific type of weapon. (you do not gain martial weapons proficency for talent with a great sword, you only gain greatsword proficency.) (cannot be used for languages.)
the final say of implementation of this feat is up to the precaution of your dm.
self-discovery variant rules (optional):
- you now have a new modifier called talent it is equal to half your proficiency bonus and is added to your character instead of proficiency. talent stacks with proficiency. talent is a demonstration of natural fluency with a weapon tool. with talent alone, your motions are fluent but, unpracticed.
- The bonus only applies to the tool/weapon it was found on, and you can spend a long rest to apply it on a new, diffrent weapon/tool of the same type.
the final say on the use of these variants are left entirely to the dm. as the first one can be overpowered at later levels.
