-.+Artificers concern themselves with the inner workings of the world of inanimate objects, transcending mere tool use to attain tool creation, tool innovation, and tool destruction. The archetype itself is medium-gonzo, but several of its advanced abilities (such as Artifacts and Psychometry) push the archetype squarely into high-gonzo territory. Referees can feel free to disallow certain parts of the archetype if they feel it's necessary, though as always having fun should be the top priority of everyone at the table.

 +^{{ra>gear-hammer?48|Utility}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Lower Overhead:** It only costs you 4 Dosh to attempt to make construction progress instead of the normal 5. This benefit does not stack with the presence of multiple Artificers who know this ability. |

-  * make a list of magical oddities? minor magical items with very specific, unusual powers. artificer can study oddities to learn how to duplicate them. Actually, make replication an enterprise thing +^ ^^^

Imprinters grant their associated archetype to whoever carries them for as long as they are carried, and can still be used for any purpose that a keystone can be used (leveling up, research, etc). \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Imprinter Limits:** Imprinters can only grant the entry point of their archetype to their bearer- if their bearer already has a level in the associated archetype, then an imprinter is useless to them. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Fiddly:** Imprinters require constant low-level maintenance to keep working properly. Only yourself or another creature that knows the Imprinter ability can make use of them; to anyone else, they're just regular keystones. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Dosh:** Converting a keystone into an imprinter costs 1 Dosh. This is a one-time cost; once converted, you can keep the imprinter forever. |

 +
 +^ ^^^
 +^{{ra>gear-hammer?48|Utility}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Object Reading:** As a procedure, you can handle an interesting object and learn things about it that aren't readily apparent. Ask your choice of any of the questions below and the referee will tell you the answer (you can ask multiple different questions with multiple uses of this ability): \\ - What did the last owner of this object look like? \\ - How old is this object? \\ - What has been done to or with this object recently? \\ - Who made this object? \\ - What strong emotions has this object been close to? \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Supplies:** Roll a trigger die when using Psychometry to find out information about an object. If the result is 1-3, then doing so costs 1 Supplies. You cannot use this ability if you have no Supplies remaining. |
