+Miasmists attack by creating a cloud of damaging material around a target location which can have lingering effects on the battlefield without any further intervention needed on their part. This most often takes the form of (war-crimey) poison gas but can be easily re-flavored to create similar other effects (for example, an ice magician might combine this archetype with a few levels in [[Cryophile]] to create small, localized blizzards).
 This is a weapon and subject to [[UWR|universal weapon rules]].

-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Attack:** As an action, you may make a Whelm attack against any target(s) within a a space of your choice in throwing range (0-10 meters), plus all adjacent spaces. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Lingering:** At the beginning of your next turn after using a Miasmist attack, you can choose to make a lingering attack as an action. Lingering attacks strike the exact same location as the initial attack regardless of whether that location is still in range of you or not. Unlike regular attacks, lingering attacks have no chance to consume Supply/Ammo Bag uses regardless of the trigger die result. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Conditions:** When the trigger die is 10+, this weapon inflicts its wielder's choice of the Bleary, Bleeding, or Choking conditions to its target. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Area Weapon:** This weapon does not suffer failure chances from concealment and failure chances from mismatched sizes between attacker and target are reduced by 12. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Linger Limits:** You may make a lingering attack a maximum of once per turn, no matter how many Miasmist attacks you made on the previous round. If you did not make any Miasmist attacks (either regular or lingering) on the previous round, you cannot make lingering attacks at all. If you made multiple Miasmist attacks on the previous round, you have to decide which will linger and which won't. Lingering attacks can be used as the basis for more lingering attacks on the following round if desired. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Wind Interference:** You cannot use lingering attacks at all when in an area of high wind; your Miasmist clouds are scattered almost as soon as you make them. Regular attacks are unaffected by the wind conditions. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Constrained:** The attack's effect emanates outwards from its center point. Walls and solid barriers can prevent its spread and protect things behind them. Creatures do not constrain the effect's spread. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Ammunition:** When the trigger die rolled with the attack is 1-6, the attack uses 1 point of Supply or one use of an Ammo Bag item. This weapon cannot be used if you have no Supply/Ammo Bag uses remaining. |

This lingering attack does not consume Supplies regardless of the trigger die result. If the lingering attack's trigger die is also 7+, it continues to linger for another round. This can keep happening again and again for as long as the trigger die's result is 7+. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Conditions:** When the trigger die is 10+, this weapon inflicts its wielder's choice of the Bleary, Bleeding, or Choking conditions to its target. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Area Weapon:** This weapon does not suffer failure chances from concealment and failure chances from mismatched sizes between attacker and target are reduced by 12. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Wind Interference:** You cannot use lingering attacks at all when in an area of high wind; your Miasmist clouds are scattered almost as soon as you make them.

This effect also extends to all lingering attacks made afterward. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Overwhelmingly Vile:** If the trigger die rolled with a Malaise attack is 10+, you deal two conditions of your choice to all targets struck. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Expensive Compaction:** Throwing a Malaise-empowered Miasmist attack always costs 1 Supplies regardless of the result on the trigger die. |

-^Demolition Ground |Space has been set aside for properly testing large munitions. Adventurers can spend a training fee of 1 Supply in the establishment to temporarily increase their Whelm combat skill by +1 until the end of the current session. A Demolition Ground cannot be used more than once in a given session by any single adventurer. |
-^Miasmist School |The settlement hosts an institution that teaches the secrets of this class for a small fee. Keystones of this class can be purchased here for 1 Supply each. |
-^Squad |The settlement is home to a squad of 10 soldiers focusing on this class's weapon type. A single settlement can have multiple versions of this enterprise. All 10 soldiers are level 5 and have the same abilities/statistics, determined by you. At least two of the soldier's five abilities need to be weapon abilities, and all of the soldier's abilities need to be ones personally known by the retiring adventurer who establishes the squad. Squads fight for the interests of their local settlement. If a squad is wiped out, it can be restored to fighting order by spending 5 Supply. |
