Artificer

Artificers are inventors who find their interest and passions in using, modifying or creating new tools and technology. They create objects infused with magical power, and their approach to magic is meticulous, rigorous, and scientific. By tinkering and experimeningt with the wild and unpredictable powers of magic, they are determined to find a method in the madness. Most every artificer shares this love of tinkering and experimentation, though their specialties often differ. All artificers are specialists in one way or another. Your specialty may be in the art of gadgetry, devices with utility and specific roles; or in artillery, using magic to create weapons that rain destruction upon your foes; or in the vital role of trapsmithing, creating devices that control the battlefield and movement of foes with your magical creations.

Purpose

The Artificer is a class with a tool for every job and a solution to every problem. They excel as a Support character, but make decent Defenders, Healers, and Strikers, too. With the right gadgets and spells, they can fill nearly any role in the party, making the Artificer’s versatility rival that of the Bard.

Provided Services

Artifiers brainstorm new designs, bringing them to fruition through careful crafting and meticulous attention to detail. They might also modify previous inventions to adjust for data you've collected in the field. They can work as a local smith or tinker where your skills are needed, or might keep a workshop on the edge of town where the clank and clatter of their experiments attracts less attention.
