Artificer/Inventor

Cunning Inventors

Every Inventor is defined by a specific craft. Inventors see mastering the basic methods of a craft as the first step to true progress, the invention of new methods and approaches. Inventors are arcane engineers, students of invention and warfare who craft deadly firearms, ingenious gadgets, magical armor, and mechanical beings that they can augment with magic. All Inventors are united by their curious and inventive nature. To an Inventor, magic is an evolving art with a leading edge of discovery and mastery that pushes further ahead with each passing year. Inventors value novelty and discovery. This penchant pushes them to seek a life of adventure. A hidden ruin might hold a forgotten magic item or a beautifully crafted mirror perfect for magical enhancement. Inventors win respect and renown among their kind by uncovering new lore or inventing new methods of creation.

Intense Rivalries

The Inventors’ drive to invent and expand their knowledge creates an intense drive to uncover new magic discoveries. An Inventor who hears news of a newly discovered magic item must act fast to get it before any rivals do. Good-aligned Inventors recover items on adventures or offer gold or wondrous items to those who possess items they are keen to own. Evil ones have no problem committing crimes to claim what they want. Almost every Inventor has at least one rival, someone whom they seek to outdo at every turn. By the same token, Inventors with similar philosophies and theories band together into loose guilds. They share their discoveries and work together to verify their theories and keep ahead of their rivals.

spellcasting:
As part of your study of magic, you gain the ability to cast spells at 2nd level. The spells you learn are limited in scope, primarily concerned with modifying creatures and objects or creating items.

Spell Slots

The Inventor table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your Inventor spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of your Inventor spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher

You know three 1st-level spells of your choice from the Inventor spell list. The Spells Known column of the Inventor table shows when you learn more Inventor spells of your choice. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 5th level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level. Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the Inventor spells you know and replace it with another spell from the Inventor spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots. Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier. Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier.

Ritual Casting

You can cast any artificer spell you know as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag.

Spellcasting Focus

You can use an arcane focus as a spellcasting focus for your Inventor spells. See chapter 5, "Equipment" in the Player’s Handbook for various arcane focus options.

class features:

Inventor Specialization

At 1st level, you focus your craft on a particular specialization: Cursesmith, Gadgetsmith, Golemsmith, Infusionsmith, Mastersmith, Potionsmith, Runesmith, Relicsmith, Thundersmith, Warsmith or Fleshsmith, each of which are detailed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at 1st level and again at 3rd, 5th, and 14th level.

Portable Forge

Part of the reason that you have become an artificer is because you are a prodigy with craft; you've learned how to construct items on-the-go. At 1st level, you can craft non-magical items twice as quickly, and can use rests during adventuring time to make progress in crafting an item. During an adventure, two short rests spent using this feature count as one day of downtime. Therefore, a nonmagical item that costs 100 gp can be completed in one workweek, or ten short rests, rather than 2 workweeks of downtime. Other individuals can't help you if you attempt to craft an item using this feature. This feature assumes the adoption of the rules specified in the section Crafting an Item in XGtE (p.128), which is also found in Appendix B: Crafting Rules. However, your DM may have different rules for crafting non-magical items in your campaign. Discuss crafting for your game with your DM to amend this feature as appropriate to your campaign.

Magical Analysis

Starting at 1st level, you know the cantrip mending, and can cast it as a bonus action. Also starting at 1st level, your understanding of magic items allows you to analyze and understand their secrets. You know the artificer spells detect magic and identify, but you can only cast them as rituals. You don’t need to provide a material component when casting identify with this feature. In addition, when you perform an identify ritual with a magical item equal to or less than your level of crafting, you may also attempt to glean the formula included in the making of the item. Upon finishing the identify ritual, make an Arcana check; the DC for a common magical item is 15, and the DC increases by 2 for every increase in rarity. On a success, you learn the formula (including components and spells) required for crafting that sort of item. If the check fails, you may make another attempt at understanding the item after a long rest.

Magical Tinkering

At 1st level, you've learned how to invest a spark of magic into mundane objects. To use this ability, you must have thieves' tools or artisan's tools in hand. You then touch a Tiny nonmagical object as an action and give it one of the following magical properties of your choice:

The object sheds bright light in a 5-foot radius and dim light for an additional 5 feet.

Whenever tapped by a creature, the object emits a recorded message that can be heard up to 10 feet away. You utter the message when you bestow this property on the object, and the recording can be no more than 6 seconds long.

The object continuously emits your choice of an odor or a nonverbal sound (wind, waves, chirping, or the like). The chosen phenomenon is perceivable up to 10 feet away.

A static visual effect appears on one of the object's surfaces. This effect can be a picture, up to 25 words of text, lines and shapes, or a mixture of these elements, as you like.

The chosen property lasts indefinitely. As an action, you can touch the object and end the property early. You can bestow magic on multiple objects, touching one object each time you use this feature, though a single object can only bear one property at a time. The maximum number of objects you can affect with this feature at one time is equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of one object). If you try to exceed your maximum, the oldest property immediately ends, and then the new property applies.

Tool Expertise

Starting at 2nd level, your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses any of the tool proficiencies you gain from this class.

Arcane Retrofit

Additionally at 2nd level, you gain the ability to retrofit magical gear. During a long rest you can perform a ritual using any +1/2/3 weapon (excluding artifacts and sentient weapons) to transfer the magic into an Inventor weapon (a weapon created by subclass feature or upgrade). Eg: you can turn a +1 longsword and your impact gauntlet a +1 impact gauntlet. This includes weapon-like Upgrades that make attack and damage rolls (like a Warsmith's Force Blast). You cannot transfer any properties from a magical weapon besides a bonus to attack and damage rolls, and the original weapon is destroyed. Additionally, you can convert a set set of armor with a magical plus to AC to a lighter armor type.

Specialization Upgrade

Starting at 3rd level, choose an upgrade from the list at the end of your specialization, and gain the benefits listed in the description of the upgrade. You select an additional upgrade at 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th, 13th, 15th, 17th, and 19th level. You cannot select an Upgrade more than once, unless the upgrade's description says otherwise. Whenever you level up, you can exchange one of your existing upgrades for another upgrade of the same level requirement as the replaced upgrade. In any case an existing upgrade is swapped out for a replacement upgrade (either by a subclass feature or on level up), the new upgrade is selected as if the Inventor is the level they were when they got that upgrade slot. For example, if you replace your Stormforged Weapon and reselect all of your upgrades as a 5th level Inventor, you could select one 3rd level upgrade and one 5th level upgrade, or two 3rd level upgrades, but you would not be able to select two 5th level upgrades.

Wondrous Invention

At 3rd level, you gain the use of a magic item that you have crafted. Crafting an item is a difficult task. Whenever you gain a magic item from this feature, it reflects long hours of study, tinkering, and experimentation that allowed you to complete an item of your own unique design. This unique item is able to copy the effects of a spell. Choose a 1st level spell from the Wizard spell list. If the spell requires a material component with a gold cost, you must provide that component when you complete work on the item, and the component becomes a part of the item. If the spell consumes its material components, you must also provide those components every time you use it. The item can look however you like, as long as its form is appropriate for the effects of the spell. If the spell conjures a creature, the creature is considered a construct. You can cast the spell from the item once per long rest. Only you can use the item in this way. You are assumed to work on this item in your leisure time and to finish it when you level up. You complete another item of your choice when you reach certain levels in this class: 6th, 11th, 15th, and 20th level. If the item you craft replicates a wizard spell, you must be able to cast a spell of equal level in order to craft the item.

Ability Score Improvement

When you reach 4th, 8th, 12th, 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. As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

Magical Infusion

Starting at 5th level, when you cast an artificer spell with a casting time of 1 action, you can increase its casting time to 1 minute. If you do so while holding a nonmagical item throughout the casting, you expend the spell slot, but none of the spell’s effects occur. Instead, the spell transfers into that item for later use if the item doesn’t already contain a spell from this feature. This item is considered magical while it is infused with a spell. Thereafter, any creature (with an Intelligence score of at least 6) that is holding the item can use an action to activate the item and cast the spell. The spell is cast using your spellcasting ability. The creature that activated the item controls the spell's targets and other effects. However, if the spell has an area of effect, it is centered on the item. If the spell requires concentration, the creature that activates the item maintains the concentration as if they had cast the spell. When you infuse a spell in this way, it must be cast within 24 hours, or the spell fades and is lost. The spell will also fade if you touch the item again after 8 hours. You can have a limited number of infused spells at the same time. The number equals your Intelligence modifier.

Magical Crafting

Your inventive knowledge allows you to create magic items more quickly. Starting at 5th level, you can now craft magical items using the portable forge feature. Only wondrous items may be crafted in this way, and you must still provide the appropriate formula and requisite materials to craft the item. The rules for crafting magic items is included in Appendix B, XGtE (pp.128-129), or the DMG (pp. 128-129). Your artificer level determines the rarity of an item you are able to craft. Refer to the Magic Item Ingredients table in Appendix B or XGtE (p. 129) to determine whether you are able to craft a magical item.

Cross Disciplinary Knowledge

At 6th level, you can expand on your knowledge across fields. You can craft one of the following: a Thundersmith's Stormforged Weapon, an Infusionsmith's Animated Weapon, Blasting Rod, or Infused Weapon, a Potionsmith's Alchemical Reagent Pouch and Alchemical Fire or Alchemical Acid, a Warsmith's Gauntlet with the Martial Grip, Power Fist or Force Blast Upgrade (note: this does not give Artificial Strength), A Cursesmith's Forbidden Artifact with either the Empowered, Living, Nectrotic, or Eldritch awakening or an Unrestricted Gadgetsmith Upgrade. If you select a Stormforged Weapon, you gain proficiency with that weapon and knowledge of how to make ammunition for it (if required). You cannot apply Infused Weapon to another weapon granted by this class. If this selection is lost or destroyed, you can remake it following the rules for remaking the select item in subclass.

Artificer's Affinity

At 6th level, you learn a special, artificer's unseen servant spell. You can cast this spell once per long rest, and you do not need to provide material components. The servant summoned from this casting lasts until it is dispelled or its HP drops to 0, and it can use and is proficient with any tools that you possess and are proficient with as well. When you are not actively commanding this servant, it will follow you within five feet. Your unseen servant may assist you in crafting non-magical items during a short rest. You can command your servant to craft a non-magical item instead of you. The servant makes progress toward crafting the item, and you still benefit from a short rest. Also at 6th level, you can attune to up to four magic items.

Wondrous Items Proficiency

At 7th level, your familiarity with the workings of magical items means that you ignore all class requirements on the use and of magic items.

Flash of Genius

At 9th level, you've gained the ability to come up with solutions under pressure. When you or another creature you can see within 30 feet of you makes an ability check or a saving throw, you can use your reaction to add your Intelligence modifier to the roll. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Improved Magical Crafting

At 10th level, your experience in creating your own wondrous invention makes you more adept at crafting a magic item than a normal spellcaster. Creating a magic item takes you half the time it would normally take. Additionally, you can make 1 hour of progress toward crafting a magic item, scroll, or potion during a long rest.

Wondrous Item Recharge

Starting at 10th level, you can recharge a magic item that has charges or per rest uses, as long as those charges or uses can only be used to cast spells. To restore charges or uses, you perform a ritual that takes one minute and expends a spell slot of equal or higher level than a spell slot level of a spell cast by the item. The number of charges or uses restored to the item is equal to the number of charges or uses required to cast that spell using the item once.

Inventive Expertise

At 10th level, you have developed expertise with your wondrous inventions. During a short rest, you can prepare one of your wondrous inventions to use again.

Study of Magic

At 11th level, your proficiency in the workings of magic has become so great you can cast detect magic and identify at will without expending a spell slot. Additionally, you have advantage on all Intelligence (Arcana) checks to understand the workings of magical traps, effects, or runes.

Magic Item Savant

At 13th level, your skill with magic items deepens more. You can attune to up to five magic items at once.

Animated Artifice

At 17th level, you learn a special, artificer's animate objects spell. You can cast the spell once per long rest, with the following modifications: the transformations last for 1 hour (or until dispelled, or until the transformations drop to 0 HP), and you do not need to maintain concentration.

Wondrous Item Mastery

Starting at 18th level you can use a magic item that would normally take an action as a bonus action instead.

Peerless Inventor

At 20th level, your mind is always thinking of new options and clever solutions. After a short or long rest, you can create a temporary version of an Upgrade from your subclass you are qualified to take but do not have. This upgrade must have a level requirement of 11th level or lower. You have this upgrade until you complete a short or long rest, which time you can select a temporary Upgrade with this feature again.

Soul of Artifice

At 20th level, your understanding of magical items is unmatched, allowing you to mingle your soul with items linked to you. You can attune to up to six magical items at once. In addition, you gain a +1 bonus to all saving throws for every magical item to which you are currently attuned.

Crafting Rules

The relevant information regarding item crafting, from XGtE and the DMG, has been compiled into this appendix. This information has not been changed to reflect the crafting features of the artificer class. Clarifications for the Portable Forge The artificer can make progres toward the crafting of an item during adventure time, as well as downtime. Two short rests spent crafting are the equivalent of one day of downtime. In addition, the 4th level portable forge feature allows an artificer to progress in crafting magical items twice as quickly (rounded up): an uncommon magic item can be completed in one workweek, instead of two. This feature stacks for the Alchemist, starting at 5th level: an uncommon potion or poison can be brewed in three days, instead of two workweeks. (The cost is still only halved.) The time it takes to brew a potion of healing is also halved with this feature.

Crafting an Item

Xanathar's Guide to Everything (p.128) A character who has the time, the money, and the requisite tools can use downtime to craft armor, weapons, clothing, or other kidns of nonmagical gear. Resources and Resolution. In addition to the appropriate tools for the item to be crafted, a character needs raw materials worth half of the item's selling cost. To determine how many workweeks it takes to create an item, divide its gold piece cost by 50. A character can complete multiple items in a workweek if the items' combined cost is 50 gp or lower. Items that cost more than 50 gp can be completed over longer periods of time, as long as the work in progress is stored in a safe location. A character needs to be proficient with the tools needed to craft an item and have access to the appropriate equipment. If need be, the DM will make any judgment calls regarding whether a character has the correct equipment. If all of the above requirements are met, the result of the process is an item of the desired sort.

Magical Item Crafting

Xanathar's Guide to Everything, (pp.128-129) Creating a magic item requires more than just time, effort, and materials. To start with, a character needs a formula for a magic item in order to create it. The formula is like a recipe: It lists the materials and steps required to make the item. In addition, your DM may determine that an item also requires an exotic material to complete it. This material should be of a type related to the sort of magical effect the item reproduces, and finding this material will likely take place as part of an adventure. The Magic Item Ingredients table suggests the CR of a creature that the characters need to face to acquire the materials for an item. In addition, the character crafting the item (namely, the Artificer) must be of a level greater than the lowest CR range of the related creature involved in acquiring the material.

Magic Item Ingredients

Item Rarity | CR Range | Character Level

Common | 1-3 | 2nd level
Uncommon | 4-8 | 5th level
Rare | 9-12 | 10th level
Very Rare | 13-18 | 14th level
Legendary | 19+ | 20th level

Magic Item Crafting and Cost

Item Rarity | Workweeks* | Cost*

Common | 1 | 50 gp
Uncommon | 2 | 200 gp
Rare | 10 | 2,000 gp
Very Rare | 25 | 20,000 gp
Legendary | 50 | 100,000 gp

* Halved for a consumable item, like a potion/poison, or scroll To complete a magic item, a character also needs the appropriate tool proficiency, as for crafting a nonmagical object. If all of the above requirements are met, the result of the process is a magic item of the desired sort.

Brewing Potions of Healing

Xanathar's Guide to Everything (p.130) A character who has proficiency with the herbalism kit can create these potions. The times and costs for doing so are summarized below.

Potion of Healing Creation

Type | Time | Cost

Healing (common) | 1 day | 25 gp
Greater healing (uncommon) | 1 workweek | 100 gp
Superior healing (rare) | 3 workweeks | 1,000 gp
Supreme healing (very rare) | 4 workweeks | 10,000 gp

Poisons

Dungeon Master's Guide (pp.257-258) A character who has proficiency with the poisoner's kit can create poisons. Poisons can be applied in the following ways.

Contact. A creature that touches contact poison with exposed skin suffers its effects.
Ingested. A creature must swallow an entire dose of ingested poison to suffer its effects. Your DM might decide that a partial dose has a reduced effect, such as allowing advanteage on the saving throw or dealing only half damage on a failed save.
Inhaled. These poisons are powders or gases that take effect when they are inhaled. A single dose fills a 5-foot cube.
Injury. A creature that takes slashing or piercing damage from a weapon or piece of ammunition coated with injury poison is exposed to its effects.

subclass options:

Cursemith

A Cursesmith's power is invariably marked by the dark decisions they've made; some ignore this lingering darkness, pursuing the heights of power their reckless creation allows. Others leverage the twisted side effects themselves, believing there are no mistakes, only opportunities. Darker still are those that truly embrace the darkness of their twisted creations, becoming twisted creations themselves. A Cursesmith is not always evil, but they walk a path that dangles precariously over evil, making it an easy thing to fall into. They may be Lawful, but the laws they respect are rarely those of normal mortal society that might get in the way of their dark delving.

Cursesmith's Proficiency

When you choose this specialization at 1st level, you gain proficiency with one crafting tool of your choice, and learn one language of your choice from Infernal, Abyssal, Deepspeech, or Primordial.

Forbidden Artifact

At 1st level, you set yourself apart from other Artificers by seizing power that others dare not wield. You partake a dark ritual investing enormous power into an melee weapon and intertwining it with your very soul, bestowing it with great power, but twisting and corrupting it. The weapon becomes permenantly bound to you. You have proficiency with the weapon. When you perform the rite, you instill one of the following awakening powers into the artifact: Empowered, Living, Necrotic, or Eldritch (listed below). As a bonus action, you can awaken the weapon, invoking the awakened power and the cursed property until you suppress it again. You can suppress it as a bonus action, but if it has been awakened for more than 1 minute, you must pass a DC 10 Charisma save to return its dormant state.

Empowered

When awakened, the weapon hums with great power, dealing additional 1d4 damage of the weapons damage type. The extra d4 is maximized when attacking objects or structures.

Living

When awakened, your weapon morphes into a writhing living form. Select two of Abhorrent Life, Grip, Reach, or Split. It gains these properties while awakened.

Necrotic

When awakened, the weapon is enshrouded in dark energy. Each time you hit a creature with it, it inflicts a stack of necrotic rot on the creature. At the end of a creature's turn it takes a 1d4 damage per stack of necrotic rot on it and makes a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC. On a success, the stacks on removed. On a failure, they remain. You can have a maximum number of stacks on a creature equal to your proficiency modifier.

Eldritch

When awakened, it glows with magical power. When awakened, you can release magical blasts of power from the weapon that deal damage equal to the weapons damage dice. Select from cold, fight, lightning or necrotic for its damage type. In place of making an attack with this weapon, you can release this energy as a ranged spell attack. The ranged spell attack has a range of 120 feet. You can apply your Intelligence modifier to damage done with this attack.

Cursed Path

Starting at 3rd level, the path you've chosen begins to claim your body and soul - some could call it a curse, some could call further opportunity. Select a path from the following:

Curse Bearer

You can draw deeply on the dark energy, attempting to master its power. When you awaken your forbidden artifact, you can afflict yourself with bane. When you do so, you deal an additional 1d6 necrotic damage on attacks with your Forbidden Artifact. Additionally, when you suffer the effects of bane or any curse effect of one of the items granted by this class, you can suppress the effect ignore the negative consequence of the effect. You can do this a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all uses on a long rest. If the curse is an ongoing effect, suppressing it suppressing it until the start of your next turn.

Curse Bringer

Once per turn when you deal damage with your Forbidden Artifact in its Awakened Form, you can leave a lingering malignity on that target. The target must make a Charisma saving throw or suffer the effect of bane until the start of your next turn. Additionally, when you suffer the effect of any curse effect of one of the upgrades granted by this class, as a reaction, you can force another creature within 30 feet to make a Charisma saving throw or suffer the same effect. You can do this a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all uses on a long rest.

Curse Eater

You consume the darkness of your Forbidden Artifact, destroying it. You gain a natural melee weapon. On hit, this weapon deals 1d8 damage of your choice of bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage (selected when you gain this feature), and 1d4 necrotic damage. You can awaken the power gained from the weapon to your natural weapon as well as the effect of the Forbidden Artifact curse. You can additionally absorb any item you create with this subclass, innately gaining its effect and curse. At the start of your turn while you are not incapacitated you regain temporary hit points equal to 1 + the number of curses you are currently afflicted by. When you gain temporary hit points from this feature, you can instead regain 1d4 + the number of curses you are currently afflicted with hit points. You can do this a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all uses on a long rest.

Damned Affinity

Additionally at 3rd level, magical items granted by this subclass that require attunement do not count against your attunement total if that item is cursed.

Extra Attack

Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

Unlimited Power

Starting at 14th level, you can select a second Awakening Property for your Forbidden Artifact. When you awaken it, you can awaken either property, or awaken both properties at the same time. When you awaken both properties at the same time, the weapons power rages out of control and begins to eat your soul, dealing 1d8 necrotic damage to you at the end of each turn it is awakened. This damage cannot be resisted.

Cursemaker Upgrades

Cursesmith's upgrades go towards creating almighty onjects that defy the laws of the universe, while powerful they come with a price and are cursed.

Eldritch Magic

Prerequisite: Artifact with the Eldritch Property Select a spell with an attack roll from the Wizard spell list that deals the same damage type as your weapon (when awakened). You can apply any secondary effect of that cantrip to your weapon's attack roll (for example, applying chill touch's secondary effect to a weapon that deals necrotic damage).

Eldritch Blade

Prerequisite: Artifact with the Eldritch Property Your weapon is wreathed in power while awoken, allowing you to make melee spell attacks in place of ranged spell attacks with it against creatures in reach of the weapon.

Abhorrent Grip

When awakened, your Forbidden Artifact can twist around binding targets. When you hit an attack with it, you can attempt to grapple the target as a bonus action. If you have the Abhorrent Life mutation from this upgrade, you can make an Intelligence (Athletics) check to initiate or contest the grapple. You cannot attack other creatures while grappling a creature with this weapon.

Abhorrent Reach

When awakened, your Forbidden Artifact stretches and flexes unnaturally in seeking its targets. It's range increases by 5 feet.

Abhorrent Split

Prerequisite: Forbidden Artifact with damage die of d8 or higher When awakened, your Forbidden Artifact splits into multiple writhing branches. The weapons damage dice convert to smaller increments based on the table below: Damage Dice | Awakened Damage Dice

1d10 | 1d6 + 1d4
1d8 | 2d4

It can attack other creatures even while grappling or restraining a creature with the Abhorrent Grip mutation from this upgrade, but loses one damage die (starting with its smallest) for each creature it is grappling or restraining.

Blood Rites

Delving your dark path, you formulate a way to form temporary containers of magical power using blood. Select three ritual spells from the Wizard spell list; you gain the ability to cast these spells as Ritual Spells. You can only take spells of a level you could normally cast at the level you take this talent. To cast these spells as rituals, you require fresh blood; this can be provided by an creature that has been slain in the last hour, or by a creature (including yourself) providing it at a cost of 1d4 slashing damage.

Helm of Invulnerability

You can only wear 1 Helm at a time. Attunement, Cursed. You forge a helmet, making yourself invulnerable... almost. As reaction to taking to bludgeoning piercing or slashing damage, you can become immune to bludgeoning piercing and slashing damage until the start of your turn.

Curse: Whenever this helm prevents damage, you take necrotic damage equal half the damage you would have taken. This damage cannot resisted.

Helm of Madness

You can only wear 1 Helm at a time. Attunement, Cursed. With great madness comes great power. As a bonus action, you can allow the madness to take your mind. You can immediately move up to your movement speed and make a single weapon attack. Once you use this upgrade, you cannot use it again until you complete a short or long rest. Curse: When you activate this helm, your AC and bonus to saving throws is reduced by 5 until the start of your next turn.

Helm of Omniscience

You can only wear 1 Helm at a time You make a helm granting your unlimited knowledge. As a bonus action, you can gain the effect of foresight until the start of your next turn. Once you use this helm, you cannot use it again until you complete a short or long rest. Curse: When you activate this helm, your mind becomes overloaded, causing you to take 1d6 psychic damage when you make a roll that benefits from foresight until the start of your next turn.

Dark Magic

After tinkering with the properties of your Artifact, you can hear it... whisper. You can hear that too, right? You gain the ability to cast guidance and message, but the message is always delivered in a haunting, unearthly, or creepy voice. You can amplify these whispers to cast dissonant whispers without expending a spell slot. Once you do so, you cannot do so again until you complete a short or long rest.

Golemsmith's Proficiency

When you choose this specialization at 1st level, you gain proficiency with smith's tools and tinker's tools.

Mechanical Golem

Starting at 1st level, you forge a mechanical golem to carry out your orders and protect you. The golem is under your control, and understands the languages you speak, but does not speak. The Golem obeys your commands as best it can. On your turn, you can verbally command the construct where to move (no action required by you) and take an action, which requires your action to do. Additionally, you can use your reaction to direct it to take a reaction. The Golem acts on your commands during your turn. If you issue no command to your Golem, it takes no actions. Your Golem's Proficiency increases when yours does. If the golem is killed, it can be returned to life via normal means, such as with the revivify spell. In addition, over the course of a long rest, you can repair a slain servant if you have access to its body. It returns to life with half (rounded down) its maximum hit point at the end of the rest during which you repaired it. If the servant is beyond recovery, you can reproduce the construct exactly as it was, with four days of work (eight hours each day) and 100 gp of raw materials. Over the course of a short rest, you can restore hit points equal to your Intelligence modifier + your Inventor level to your golem, or repair it to full health during a long rest. Healing spells you cast on your golem ignore any restriction against healing constructs.

Golem Chassis

When you create your golem, you can add one prefix to its type in the form which basic chassis you use for golem. For example, if you select Warforged, your golem becomes a Warforged Golem, and gains the Warforged modifications to its base statistics.

Warforged

Your golem is roughly humanoid, and comes with the robust flexibility and options that this form provides. Its base strength becomes 16(+3) and it gains proficiency in shields, simple weapons, and martial weapons. Its natural weapon is: Slam: +5 (Strength + Proficiency) to hit, reach 5ft., one target. Hit 1d4 + 3 (Strength) bludgeoning damage.

Quadrupedal

Your golem takes on a quadrupedal design. Larger and more sturdy, it is more suitable to launch into the fray or carry its creator. Its base size becomes Large, its base Strength and Constitution become 16(+3), its natural armor becomes 16, and its speed becomes 35 ft. Its natural weapon is: Bite: +5 (Strength + Proficiency) to hit, reach 5ft., one target. Hit 1d10 + 3 (Strength) piercing damage.

Winged

Your Golem is modeled off a flying creature. Smaller and lighter than most golems, it is kept aloft by intricate wings. Its base size becomes Small and it gains a flying speed of 30 ft. Its natural weapon is: Talon: +4 (Strength + Proficiency) to hit, reach 5ft., one target. Hit 1d8 + 2 (Strength) slashing damage.

Launcher

Your Golem becomes akin to a mobile turret, taking the frame of a ballista or other launching device. Its base Dexterity becomes 16(+3) and its speed becomes 25 ft. Its natural weapon is: Shoot +5 (Dexterity + Proficiency) to hit, reach 60/240ft., one target. Hit 1d10 + 3 (Dexterity) piercing damage.

Specialized

Your Golem defies all expectations, its design fueled by your own rampant creativity. A little less robust and stable, it is far more extensible to your visionary plans. Your Golem starts with the basic statistics, but you can select 2 free upgrades that do not count against your upgrade total. Its natural weapon is: Slam: +4 (Strength + Proficiency) to hit, reach 5ft., one target. Hit 1d8 + 2 (Strength) bludgeoning damage.

Intelligent Oversight

Starting at 3rd level, you can take the Help action as a bonus action when assisting your golem. Additionally, when you take the Help action to aid an ally (including your golem) in attacking a creature, the target of that attack can be within 30 feet of you, rather than 5 feet of you, if the allied creature can see or hear you.

Autonomous Action

Starting at 5th level, you no longer need to spend your action or reaction to direct the golem to use its action or reaction, and it can act following mental commands communicated while it is within 60 feet of you. If the Golem is not directed to take any action, it will take the Dodge action in combat.

Magical Nature

Additionally at 5th level, your golem's natural weapons count as magical for the purposes of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage.

Perfected Design

Starting at 14th level, your golem can add your Intelligence modifier to all of its attack rolls, skill checks, and saving throws.

Infusionsmith

An Infusionsmith is, in some ways, perhaps the most quintessential type of Inventor. While other Inventors may delve into mechanics and tinkering, an Infusionsmith is an Inventor that tinkers with magic itself. These are cutting edge of magical engineering, understanding the principle applications of magic. An Infusionsmith would have ground to stand on in calling a wizard an impulsive spell slinger, for these are the Inventors that work their magic through careful and meticulous method, laying down magic they may not use for hours, or painstakingly crafting a long lasting enchantment. An Infusionsmith can be a magical swordsman, a wandslinger, or bookish supporting character with a bag full of tricks that never quite runs dry. Some will stand within a maelstrom of animated blades while others will plink away with a crossbow that seems unerringly accurate, but their common theme is using their prowess of infusion to make themselves formidable.

Infusionsmith's Proficiency

When you choose this specialization at 1st level, you gain proficiency with jeweler's tools and calligrapher's supplies. Your knowledge of infusion magic gives you a natural affinity for scribing spell scrolls. Creating a magic spell scroll only takes you half the time and material cost it would normally take.

Infused Armament

Starting at 1st level, you can infuse a powerful armament to take into battle. At the end of a long rest, select one of the Infusions below. The infusion lasts until the end of your next long rest.

Animated Weapon

You touch a melee weapon, causing it to spring to life. An animated weapon can be carried or stowed, but while readied, it floats beside you. While an animated weapon is readied, you can make attacks with it as part the Attack action sending it out to strike a target, but all attacks it makes during a turn must be against the same target. This special attack is a melee spell attack with a range of 30 feet. That range reduced to 15 feet if the weapon has the Heavy property and increased to 60 feet if the weapon has the Light property. If this attack hits, it deals the weapon's damage dice + your Intelligence modifier.

Blasting Rod

You touch a nonmagical wand-blank, stick, staff, or rod, infusing with the ability to cast a cantrip. Select one Evocation Cantrip from the Wizard spell list that does not require concentration. Thereafter, as an action, you can use the Blasting rod to cast that cantrip. Once per turn, when you deal damage to a creature or object with your Blasting Rod, you can add your Intelligence modifier to damage dealt to that target.

Infused Weapon

You touch a weapon, enchanting its effectiveness. While this weapon is enchanted, you - and only you - have proficiency with it. An Infused Weapon can be wielded like a normal weapon, but gains the following property: you can apply your Intelligence modifier to the to attack and damage roll of the weapon where you usually apply your Strength or Dexterity modifier. When you infuse a weapon if it has a single damage die, increase the die by one step to a maximum of a d12 (e.g. an Infused dagger's damage type increases from a d4 to a d6).

Spell Manual

At 3rd level, you have a Spell Manual containing two 1st-level wizard spells of your choice. Your Spell Manual is the repository of any non-Inventor spell you know. You cannot cast these spells and they do not count against your spells known, but when you would learn a new Inventor spell, you can select that spell from a spell in Spell Manual instead of the Inventor spell list, at which point you can cast it as normal. You can choose to scribe any Inventor spell you can cast into the Spell Manual, as if copying from a written spell.

Learning Spells of 1st Level and Higher

Each time you gain an Inventor level, you can add one wizard Spell of your choice to your Spell Manual for free. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have Spell Slots, as shown on the Inventor table. On your adventures, you might find other Spells that you can add to your Spell Manual. For each level of the spell, the process takes 2 hours and costs 50 gold pieces.

Infuse Magic

Additionally at 3rd level, you can use your Spell Manual to infuse magic items, such as wands, storing the power for later use. In a special ritual taking 1 minute, you can expend a spell slot to cast a spell as normal, but the spell does not take effect, and is stored in the item for later use. Subsequently, any creature holding the item with an Intelligence of 6 or higher that is aware there is magic infused in it can expend the stored magic to cast the spell. The spell uses your spellcasting modifiers, but is in all other ways treated as if the creature holding it cast the spell. The magic infused in the item fades if you complete a long rest without expending the stored spell.

Extra Attack

Beginning at 5th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.

Empowered Infusions

Additionally at 5th level, your Infused Armament grows more powerful. If you Infuse or Animate a weapon, you can Infuse or Animate an additional weapon (having two infused weapons, two animated weapons, or one of each). If you have multiple animated weapons, you can attack the same or different targets with them. If you cast a spell using an item from Infuse Magic or from a wand (from the Magical Wand upgrade or a normal wand), you can cast the cantrip with your Blasting Rod as a bonus action.

Infused Focus

Starting at 14th level, you can anchor a powerful spell into an item. When you cast a concentration spell, you can anchor it to an item (such as a staff, wand or weapon), and do not need to maintain concentration. The spell lasts a number of rounds equal to your intelligence modifier, after which the spell ends. Once you use this ability, you must complete a short or long rest before using it again.

Infusionsmith Upgrades

Infusionsmith's upgrades are used on objects, turning ordinary objects into magical devices.

Unrestricted Upgrades

Animated Archer

You master animation enchantments allowing you to use your Animate Weapon feature on a ranged weapon and a quiver of ammunition. An animated ranged weapon hovers near you, and can target anything inside the weapon's normal range with a ranged spell attack. This attack deals weapon damage + your intelligence modifier on hit. The weapon requires ammunition, and can carry up 30 pieces of ammunition at a time, after which it needs to be reloaded as an action.

Arcane Armament

You master armoring yourself with magical enchantments. You learn the mage armor spell. While under the effect of mage armor, you can add your Intelligence modifier to your AC instead of your Dexterity modifier. You can only do this if you are not adding your Intelligence modifier to your AC from another source. Additionally you gain resistance to force damage.

Enchanted Garmets

You enchant your clothes, granting you several benefits over mundane not-enchanted clothes:

You can cast prestidigitation targeting only your own clothes.
You cause them to change style or color as an action, keeping the new style or color until your take them off or enchant a new set.
They do not get wet unless you will them to, keeping you dry.
You can ignore the environmental effects of extreme heat or cold.

Infuse Elements

You can infuse elements with your magic temporarily, granting you limited control of them. You learn the cantrips control flames, mold earth, and shape water.

Loyal Weapon

You can cast the returning weapon spell without expending a spell slot, but if you cast it on a second weapon with this feature, the spell immediately fades from any previous use of this feature.

Magical Wand of...

You create a new Wand that you can infuse with a spell of 1st level or higher that you have recorded in your Spell Manual. This wand does not require attunement, but can only be used by you. The spell must be of a level that you can cast as an Inventor (as of when you would get this upgrade). This wand has three charges. You can expend a charge to cast the selected spell at its base level. The wand regains all charges at the end of a long rest. You can select this upgrade multiple times, selecting a different spell each time you take this upgrade.

Skilled Animation

You manage to make the magic of your Animated Weapons so potent that attacks made with them gain a fighting style. Attacks made with one handed melee weapons gain Dueling, attacks made with two-handed melee weapons gain Great Weapon Fighting, and attacks made with ranged weapons gain Archery.

Soul Saving Bond

You set up a special magical bond between you and another creature. When either creature bound by these abilities fails a Wisdom, Intelligence, Charisma, or Death saving throw, the other character can make their own saving throw, replacing the failed save with their own roll. If this ability is used on a death saving throw, the replacement roll is a 20. Once a roll is replaced by this feature, it cannot be used again until both creatures in the bond have completed a short or long rest. This bond can be set up with a different creature at the end of a long rest.

Spinning Blades

As an action, instead of attacking with your Animated Weapons, you cause them to whirl through the air in place. This has the effect of cloud of daggers, but does not require concentration and ends at the start of your next turn. For each animated weapon you have you can pick a different 5 foot cube, or send them to the same spot. For each weapon sent the same spot, the spell level of the effect is increased by one.

Warding Stone

You learn how to weave a protective enchantment on an item. That item gains a pool of temporary hit points equal to your Inventor level. Whoever is carrying this item gains any temporary hit points remaining in this pool, but these are lost when that creature is no longer carrying this item. This pool of temporary hit points refreshes when the Inventor that created it completes a long rest.

Worn Enchantment

You can enchant an item you are wearing, such as a scarf or cloak to animate and assist you with a task, be it climbing a wall, grappling an enemy, or picking a lock. You can expend a 1st level spell slot to gain proficiency in a Strength or Dexterity skill until you complete a long rest. You can use up all the magic in the item to additionally gain advantage on one check of that skill, immediately ending the effect after the check is complete.

5th Level Upgrades

Animated Shield

You apply your animating magic to a shield. At the end of a long rest, you can touch a shield, causing it to spring to life and protect you until you complete your next long rest. While it is protecting you, you gain the benefit if you had the shield equipped. You cannot benefit from both an animated shield and an equipped shield. While you have an animated shield, you can use your reaction to send it to defend an ally within 30 feet who is being attacked. You can impose disadvantage on that attack, but do not gain the benefits of having an animated shield until the start of your next turn.

Arcane Ammunition

You infuse a ranged weapon with special magic granting it magical ammunition. The weapons damage becomes force damage and it no longer requires ammunition to fire. If the weapon had the Loading property, it no longer has the Loading Property.

Deflecting Weapon

While you have an animated melee weapon, if you are attacked by a weapon attack you can use your reaction to attempt to block the attack, rolling a d8 and adding it to your AC. You can decide to block after the attack is rolled, but before the outcome is determined. If you successfully block a melee weapon attack like this and the attack misses, you can immediately make one weapon attack against the target. If you attempt to use a weapon to block an attack in this way until the end of your next turn if you take the Attack action, you can only make a single weapon attack, and you cannot make attacks with the animated weapon you used to block the attack.

Infuse Shadows

You learn the spell shadow blade. When you are wielding the blade conjured by shadow blade you can treat it as an Infused Weapon.

Lesser Ring of Protection

You make a prototype Ring of Protection. Any creature wearing it can add +1 to their armor class.

You make a minor magic ring. Any creature wearing it can add your Intelligence modifier to their Dexterity saving throws and initiative rolls.

Translocation Binding

As a bonus action while attacking with an Infused or Animated melee weapon, you can expend a first level spell slot and teleport to an unoccupied location within 5 feet of it before it returns to you. You can invoke this even if the attack misses the target.

Weapon Enchantment Resonance

When you cast arcane weapon, magical weapon, elemental weapon, or vorpal weapon on a weapon Animated or Infused by you it affects all weapons Animated or Infused by you. Additionally, you can target a weapon with any arcane weapon, magical weapon, or elemental weapon even if the weapon is already magical.

Weapon Enchantment Expertise

When you cast arcane weapon, magical weapon or vorpal weapon on a weapon, that weapon deals an additional 1d4 force damage. The damage of elemental weapon is increased by 1d4. Additionally, when you make a Constitution save to maintain concentration on arcane weapon, magical weapon, elemental weapon, or vorpal weapon, you have advantage on that saving throw.

9th Level Upgrades

Detonate Armament

Prerequisite: Arcane Armament. As a reaction to taking damage, you can end the effect of mage armor to cast thunder step without expending a spell slot. When you cast thunder step in this manner, it deals force damage instead of thunder damage. Once you do this, you cannot use this ability again until the end of your next short or long rest.

Dimensional Pockets

You enchant a pocket on your gear to contain far more than it would appear. That pocket can hold any object that can fit through a 6 inch diameter opening, and up to 50 pounds. The pocket otherwise behaves in the same manner as a bag of holding.

Invisibility Cloak

You make a cloak of invisibility. While wearing this a creature can cast invisibility once without expending a spell slot. When cast in this method it does not require concentration. It cannot be used again in that way until you complete a short or long rest.

Prepared Enchantment

You bestow magical enchantments onto your gear, casting a limited version of contingency without expending a material component or spell slot. When cast in this way, the spell triggered by contingency must must a 2nd level or lower spell, and ends if you complete a long rest before the contingency is triggered. Once you cast contingency in this way, you cannot cast it again until you complete a long rest.

Spell Trapping Ring

You set a powerful magic into a non-magical ring. You can use this ring to cast counterspell without expending a spell slot. When you cast counterspell in this way and it succeeds, the spell countered is stored in the ring. You can then cast the stored spell without expending a spell slot, but the spell fades if it is not used before you complete a long rest. Once you use this ring, you cannot use it again until you complete a long rest.

11th Level Upgrades

Enchanted Broom

You can enchant a broom (or broom like object) into a Broom of Flying. You set the command word for the broom, and the Broom only obeys you.

Empower Weapon

When you hit a creature with a weapon, you can infuse the weapon with arcane energy as a bonus action to deal 3d4 additional force damage. When infusing the weapon in this way you can expend a 1st level spell slot to increase the damage further. The extra damage is 3d4 for a 1st-level spell slot, plus 2d4 for each spell level higher than 1st.

The spell level must be equal to half or less of your Inventor level (as of when you would get this upgrade), rounded down. This rod has one charge. You can expend the charge to cast the selected spell at its base level. The rod regains all charges at the end of a long rest. You can select this upgrade multiple times, selecting a different spell each time you take this upgrade.

Spellsword

As a bonus action, you can expend a spell slot to imbue a spell that deals damage into your Infused Weapon. Until the end of your next turn, the first time you hit a creature, the spell is dicharged as if you cast it targeting the creature struck. If the spell is a line or cone, it is cast from you targeting the creature. If the spell has a radius, it is centered on the creature, but you are immune to the effect of the spell. The spell in all other ways behaves as if you cast it, starting at the time it is discharged. If you do not hit a creature before the end of your next turn, the spell is lost.

15th Level Upgrades

Advanced Object Animation

When you cast the animate objects spell, you can use your spell attack modifier for the attack roll of anything animated by the spell, and the damage they deal is increased by +8 (divided by the number of things animated - tiny objects gain +1, huge objects gain +8).

Size Matters Not

When you animate a weapon, you can animate the weapon of a large sized creature. You can only animate one large sized weapon at a time. This weapon deals twice the damage dice of a weapon for a medium sized creature. The weapon has a range of 5 feet even when animated.

Mastersmith

Inspired by the legendary artifacts of the dwarfs, Mastersmiths devote their craft to the creation of a mythical weapon, a work of art so masterful that will forever live in the tales of the skalds. In their endless search for the finest materials and techniques, Mastersmiths wield their own weapon in battle with precision and grace. Each new struggle plants the seeds of a future stroke of genius, be it a sharper blade, a sturdier frame or a more penetrating spearhead. A Mastersmith's creation is a mirror of themselves: as they refine it and empower it with divine magic, it grows to perfectly suit their battle style and personality, their rigidity or fluidity of being. It will one day be a weapon to rival those of the great Aesir; perhaps, its story will be told alongside theirs.

Slashing Damage

Potionsmith

A potionsmith is an Inventor who has pursued the secrets of alchemy. While many a village has an apothecary grinding odd herbs and roots into potent (or not so potent) concoctions, the careful process of mixing and brewing is just one way to achieve results. Through the use of the intricate secrets of the craft and direct infusions using magical rituals, a potionsmith can come up with explosive results in the blink of an eye... sometimes literally. An potionsmith can be a scholar who has delved into the knowledge the world has to offer or an explorer that has unlocked the secrets of the wilderness. Their knowledge could come from being friends of the fey, or from unfettered access to the royal library. As such, potionsmith's can be good or evil, lawful or chaotic.

Potionsmith's Proficiency

When you choose this specialization at 1st level, you gain proficiency with Blowguns, Alchemist’s supplies and Herbalism kit. Your knowledge of alchemy gives you a natural affinity for brewing potions. Creating a potion through normal crafting takes you only half the time and cost it would normally take.

Alchemical Reagents Pouch

At 1st level, you've acquired a pouch of useful basic reagents, much as a wizard might carry a component pouch. You've tucked away things that will come in handy, and can retrieve them as part of using an ability that might require them. As long as you have this pouch on, you use the potionsmith's features. This pouch is considered as alchemy supplies for the purposes of crafting. If you lose your reagent pouch, you can spend 50 gold pieces to reacquire the various stocks you need, or spend 1 full day gathering them from a natural environment without expense.

Instant Reactions

At 1st level, you know how to get instant reactions to occur without the niceties of grinding, simmering and brewing required for more refined concoctions. Moreover, you know enough ways to do these that with just a few standard supplies, you can get these results out of a wide range of things you can gather in almost any locale and a pinch from your reagent pouch. Pick three instant reactions from the following: Alchemical Acid, Alchemical Fire, Fortifying Fumes, Healing Draught, and Poisonous Gas. These reactions do not count against your maximum Upgrades known.

Alchemical Infusions

At 3rd level, you have discovered the secrets to drastically bypass the alchemical brewing process, crafting potent magical effects through the direct infusion of the potion with your own magic. When you finish a short or long rest and have an empty vial on your person, you may choose one or more the following spells and use spell slots to cast them. Spell Level Infusion Spells

1st: cure wounds, fog cloud, grease, heroism
2nd: barkskin, shatter, lesser restoration, web
3rd: blink, water breathing, stinking cloud, haste
4th: stoneskin, confusion
5th: cloudkill, skill empowerment

When you cast spells in this way, the spell does not take effect immediately, but is infused into the potion. If the spell grants an effect or restores health, a creature can consume it or administrator it to another creature as an action. If a spell targets an area of effect, you can accurately throw a vial up to 30 feet, dealing no inherent damage, but breaking the vial in impact. The area of effect takes place when the vial is broken, with the effect centered on where the vial breaks. If the spell targets a creature, you can treat the vial as a ranged weapon you have proficiency with the Thrown (20/60) property. You replace the spell attack with making a weapon attack made with the vial. If the spell has a persistent effect that requires concentration, it does not require concentration to maintain, but its duration is shortened to a number of rounds equal to your Intelligence modifier. A spell that does not require concentration lasts its normal duration. An infused potion loses its potency if it is not used by the end of your next long rest. You can gain additional spells for your Alchemical Infusions through your Alchemist upgrades.

Practiced Quaff

Additionally at 3rd level, you gain the ability to consume potions and infused potions as a bonus action.

Empowered Alchemy

Starting at 5th level, when you deal damage, grant temporary hit points, or restore health with an instant reaction or alchemical infusion on your turn, you can add your Intelligence modifier to the damage dealt or health restored.

Infusion Expertise

Starting at 14th level, when you create an Alchemical Infusion at end the end of a short or long rest, the first alchemical infusion you create does not require a spell slot to infuse, and you can select an alchemical infusion that you would otherwise not have a spell slot of high enough level for when making this infusion.

The damage increases by 1d8 when you reach 5th level (2d8), 11th level (3d8), and 17th level (4d8).

Delivery Mechanism

You modify the stability of your reagents and develop a better delivery mechanism.

The additional precision allows you to better target the effects, allowing creatures of your choice within the target area to automatically pass a Dexterity saving throw against your effects.

Thundersmith

A Thundersmith is an Inventor who harnesses the primal force of elemental power, channeling its power into their great creation: a weapon of unmatched devastation. Spectacular and terrible, these weapons bring fear to their foes and awe to their allies. Why a Thundersmith bends their mind to the task of making such a weapon are as varied as the creations themselves. Some are coldly analytical about the destruction it causes seeking to continually improve it, tweaking it for ever more optimized destruction, while others view it merely as a tool, a means to an end; others still revel in the crash of thunder that heralds the terrifying force of their weapon. Many look at these weapons as the dawn of a new age, in truth wielding them is a tricky and arcane art; as complex as its creation it is only truly understood and mastered by the one who forged the device - each weapon a unique piece of devastating art.

Thundersmith's Proficiency

When you choose this specialization at 1st level, you gain proficiency with tinker's tools and smith's tools. If your weapon requires ammunition, you gain the knowledge of how to forge them, and create them with smithing tools during a long rest. You can create up to 50 rounds of ammunition during a long rest, with materials costing 1 gold piece per 10 rounds.

Stormforged Weapon

Starting at 1st level, you harness the elemental power of thundering storms to create a powerful weapon. This weapon requires attunement, you are proficient with it while attuned. and you can only be attuned to one Stormforged Weapon at a time. If you have multiple Stormforged Weapons, you can change which one you are attuned to during a long rest. If you lose your Stormforged Weapon or wish to create additional ones, you can do so over the course of three days (eight hours each day) by expending 200 gold pieces worth of metal and other raw materials. When you make a new Stormforged Weapon, you can make the same or different type, and select the same or different upgrades. Select one of the following and consult the Thunder Powered Weapon table for its statistics.

Thunder Cannon

You use the power of thunder to launch a projectile with terrible power, if limited accuracy, over long distances. Ringing out with a booming crash, it brings fear to the battlefield.

Hand Cannon

Forgoing the guiding barrel, this pack uses the thundering power to launch a projectile with all the force of a Cannon, though its effective range is far more limited.

Kinetic Hammer

Rather than launching a projectile with the thundering force, you keep that force imbued in the weapon, allowing for devastating force to be applied to the attack.

Charged Blade

You create a bladed weapon that channels the harnessed power of the elemental storm power directly into the blade, causing it to lay waste to all it strikes. This weapon deals Lightning damage when applying Thundermonger. Lightning Pike You create a charged blade and stick it to the end of a pole, making it slightly more unwieldy, but giving it devastating reach. This weapon deals Lightning damage when applying Thundermonger.

This extra damage increases by 1d6 when you reach certain levels in this class: 5th level (2d6), 7th level (3d6), 9th level (4d6), 11th level (5d6), 13th level (6d6), 15th level (7d6), 17th level (8d6), and 19th level (9d6).

This counts as discharging your Thundermonger damage. Firing in this way does not consume ammo.

Point Blank

Prerequisite: Hand Cannon Being within 5 feet of a hostile creature doesn't impose disadvantage on your ranged attack rolls. Additionally, can use your Hand Cannon when making opportunity attacks.

Silencer

Shrapnel Shot

Prerequisite: Stormforged weapon with the Ammunition property. You build in the tolerances to load a round of shrapnel into your stormforged weapon. As a bonus action, you swap in a special shrapnel round. This replaces the damage die the next attack you make with your stormforged weapon with a scaling effect that does more damage the closer a target is. A target within 10 feet takes 4d4 piercing damage, a target within 20 feet takes 3d4 damage a target within 20 feet takes 2d4 damage and a target's beyond 20 feet take 1d4 damage. You can fire a number of these equal to your proficiency bonus, after which you must complete a long rest and maintain your thunder cannon before you can fire additional shrapnel rounds.

Sonic Movement

This attack can target a surface, object, or creature. A creature struck by this attack is impaled by the Harpoon unless it removes the Harpoon as an action, which causes it to take an additional 1d6 damage. While the Harpoon is stuck in the target, you are connected to the target by a 60 foot cord. Dragging the connected party via the attached cord causes the creature moving to move at half speed unless they are a size category larger. While connected in this manner, you can use your bonus action to activate the Reel action, pulling yourself to the location if the target is Medium or larger. A Small or smaller creature is pulled back to you, ending the connection. Alternatively, you can opt to disconnect the cord. This attack cannot be used again until the Reel action is taken.

Storm Blast

You can make a special attack with your Stormforged Weapon, unleashing a storm blast in a 30-foot cone as an action.

Firing in this way does not consume ammo.

9th Level Upgrades

Elemental Swapping

You upgrade the firing chamber for more adaptable damage. When you take the attack action with your Stormforged Weapon you can adjust the firing chamber, causing any bonus damage granted by Thundermonger to deal fire, cold, acid, or lightning damage instead of thunder damage. Alternatively, you can use a Vial of Holy Water to cause your next Thundermonger bonus damage to deal radiant damage.

Mortar Shells

Pick a target point within range, and make an attack roll. Apply the attack roll to all creatures within a 5 foot radius of the target point. Creatures hit take weapon damage plus half of Thunder monger bonus damage. Dealing damage this way counts as applying Thundermonger damage for the turn. Creatures do not benefit from cover against this fire mode unless they have overhead cover as well.

Ride the Lightning

Prerequisite: Lightning Burst When you use the Lightning Burst ability, you can opt to expend a spell slot of the first level or higher to infuse yourself into the burst of power. When you do so you are teleported up to 60 feet in the direction of the Lightning Burst (ending early if the Lighting Burst is blocked by an obstacle). You can stop anywhere along the path of the Lighting Burst, but the Lightning Burst will stop where you do.

Shock Harpoon

Stabilization

When making a ranged weapon attack, if neither you nor your target has moved since your last ranged attack against them, then you gain advantage on the attack. Also, being prone no longer causes you to have disadvantage when making a ranged weapon attack with your Stormforged Weapon.

15th Level Upgrades

Lightning Saber

Prerequisite: Charged Blade. You amplify lightning coursing through your weapon until it becomes a brilliant rod of near pure power. Your weapon casts bright light in a color of your choice for 30 feet, and dim light for additional 30 feet. If you target is wearing non-magical armor or natural armor, your attacks treat their armor class as 10 + their dexterity modifier; only magical effects can add additional AC to the target's defenses.

Massive Overload

Prerequisite: Storm Blast or Lightning Burst Before taking a shot, you can expend a 3rd level or higher spell slot to use Storm Blast or Lightning Burst at the same time as making an attack; in this case the Storm Blast or Lightning Burst is powered by the spell slot and does not count as applying Thundermonger for that turn. The direction of this secondary ability is the same as your attack. Doing this damages your Stormforged Weapon and you must spend an action to repair it before you can fire again. You must have the secondary ability unlocked as an upgrade to use it.

Masterwork Weapon

Prerequisite: Weapon Improvement The bonus to attack and damage rolls for your Stormforged Weapon increases by +2 (stacking with any existing bonus from Weapon Improvement or Arcane Retrofit), up to a maximum of +4.

If a second target is directly behind a target you attack and within 5 feet, make a second attack roll with disadvantage. If the second attack roll hits, roll Thunder Cannon weapon damage against the second target as well (but no Thundermonger damage is applied to it). The range of your Thunder Cannon increases by 20/60 feet.

Warsmith

A Warsmith is an Inventor that has turned their wondrous talent of invention to a singular goal: making themselves a juggernaut of war. The reasons behind this could be benevolent or nefarious. Some Warsmiths seek to turn their invention into a machine of death and terror; others become the arbiter of justice and order, and others still perhaps merely seek to refine their craft in pursuit of pure innovation. Because few individuals would pursue such a wondrous invention without a driven purpose to their endeavor, Warsmiths tend to be Lawful, usually driven to their actions by a greater purpose they seek the power to accomplish, be it righting the wrongs of the world, or bringing it to heel beneath their ironshod boot.

Warsmith's Proficiency

When you create a Warplate Gauntlet, you can add one of the following upgrades to it: Power Fist, Force Blast, or Martial Grip. This upgrade does not count against your upgrade total. You can make multiple gauntlets with different upgrades, but can only be attuned to one at a time. If you lose your Warplate Gauntlet, you can remake it during a long rest with 25 gold worth of materials, or can scavenge for materials and forge it over two days of work (eight hours a day) without the material expense. While wearing a Warplate Gauntlet, you can engage Artificial Strength.

Artificial Strength

When you don your Warplate Gauntlet or as an action while wearing it, you can dedicate some of your intelligence to fully controlling the power of the gauntlet. You can reduce your current and maximum Intelligence score to increase your current Strength ability score by the same amount, but you can only raise your Strength ability score up what your Intelligence ability score was before engaging Artificial Strength. You can stop using Artificial Strength at any time, and it automatically ends if your gauntlet is removed.

Warsmith's Armor

At 3rd level, you've attained the knowledge of forging and arcane tinkering sufficient to create a set of armor that augments and expands your abilities from a standard, non-magical, set of heavy armor using resources you've gathered. This process takes 8 hours to complete, requiring the use of a forge, foundry or similar and it incorporates a Warplate Gauntlet (they do not require separate attunement). While wearing your armor, your Strength ability score increases by 2, and your maximum Strength ability score becomes 22. You can create a new set of armor by forging it from a set of gathered and purchased materials in a process that takes 2000 gold pieces and eight hours. You can create multiple sets of armor, but you can only be attuned to one of them at a given time, and you can only change which one you are attuned to during a long rest. If you create a new set of Warplate, you can apply a number of Upgrades equal to the value on the class table, applying each at the level you get it on the class table. When you create your armor, you can create a heavy plated Warplate, a magically enhanced set of gear, Warsuit, or you can integrate your changes directly into your body as an Integrated Armor. If your armor is Warplate or Integrated Armor, you gain the Powerful Build trait. Powerful Build means you count as one size larger when determining your carrying capacity and the weight you can push, drag, or left. Integrated armor cannot be removed, but does not confer any penalty when resting in it. Additionally, if you are small, you become medium while wearing Warplate. Armor Name | AC | Weight | Strength Requirement | Stealth | Properties

Warplate | 18 | 65 lbs. | — | Disadvantage | Heavy Armor, Powerful Build
Warsuit | 14 + Dex Modifier (max 2) | 20 lbs. | — | — | Medium Armor

Starting at 14th level, you've mastered the customization of your Warsmith's armor. You can add one additional upgrade to your armor that does not count against your Upgrade total. Additionally, during a long rest, you can now swap out any one upgrade for any other upgrade of the same level, so long as you don't have an upgrade that requires the upgrade you are removing as a prerequisite, or an incompatible upgrade.

The triggering event can by a preset condition, a verbal command, or a specified time. Your armor is immune to the charmed, blinded, frightened, paralyzed, and poisoned conditions, and does not suffer from exhaustion, ignoring these effects if you are under them.

All too frequently they place a slightly different value on aesthetic than others might, tending to find beauty primarily in efficiency.
