I think the gender-neutralterm is “forge monkey”Craftsmen are virtuoso artisans and genius inventors. Not content merely creating masterwork pieces of weapons and armor, they invent and engineer ingenious devices and singularly deadly weapons.Master of CraftArtisans are integral to every culture: buildings must be erected, pots must be sent to the kiln, tools must be forged. Despite their pervasiveness, master craftsmen are as rare as they are prized. These creators and inventors can smith items of mythic quality and can solve most any problem simply by using the right tool and the appropriate amount of force.Secret of SteelAdventuring craftsmen come in many varieties, but nearly all leverage their advanced knowledge of metallurgy, smelting, and construction to forge arms and armor rarely seen, even by other adventurers. The smiths test their schematics and designs themselves, building prototypes and experimental gear that can later be refined into mass-produced items.Becoming a Craftsman…AS A LEVEL 1 CHARACTER• Gain all of the traits in the Core Craftsman Traits table. • Gain the Craftsman’s level 1 features, which are listed in the Craftsman Features table.AS A MULTICLASS CHARACTER• Gain the following traits from the Core Craftsman Traits table: Hit Point Die, Tool Proficiencies, proficiency with Martial weapons, and training with Light and Medium armor and Shields.• Gain the Craftsman’s level 1 features, which are listed in the Craftsman Features table.CORE CRAFTSMAN TRAITSPrimary Ability Strength or DexterityHit Point Die D10 per Craftsman levelSaving Throw ProficienciesConstitution and IntelligenceSkill Proficiencies Choose 2: Arcana, Athletics, History, Investigation, Medicine, Perception, or PersuasionWeapon ProficienciesSimple and Martial weaponsTool Proficiencies All Artisan’s ToolsArmor Training Light, Medium, and Heavy armor and ShieldsStarting EquipmentChoose A, B, or C: (A) Chain Mail, Shield, Warhammer, 6 Light Hammers, Explorer’s Pack, and 18 GP; or (B) Studded Leather Armor, 2 Shortswords, Heavy Crossbow, 20 Bolts, Crossbow Bolt Case, Explorer’s Pack, and 13 GP; or (C) 140 GP48 49Craftsman49

These folks sling guns, as opposed to those folks over there who sling axes.Risk is in a Gunslinger’s blood. They are bold renegades, bucking tradition and forging a new path with dangerous and inelegant firearms. Gunslingers are infamous for surviving by their wits and relying on split-second timing and a considerable amount of luck to survive.Guts and GunpowderBlack powder isn’t for the faint of heart. Its thunderous applause is volatile and imprecise—a barely controlled explosion directed at an enemy. Only the truly fearless seek to master it. But Gunslingers have nerves of steel, hurling death from their guns in a roaring cacophony. Adapted for shootouts, gunslingers are mobile and daring, knowing that life or death hangs on snap decision-making and one’s own mettle.Dangerous OutsidersA Gunslinger’s explosive lifestyle lends well to wandering and adventuring. Gunslingers often shoot first and ask questions later, an attitude which earns them few friends and bountiful enemies. In their travels, most gunslingers are secretive and take great lengths to go unnoticed, lest they be spotted by old foes with scores to settle.Becoming a Gunslinger…AS A LEVEL 1 CHARACTER• Gain all of the traits in the Core Gunslinger Traits table. • Gain the Gunslinger’s level 1 features, which are listed in the Gunslinger Features table.AS A MULTICLASS CHARACTER• Gain the following traits from the Core Gunslinger Traits table: Hit Point Die, and proficiency with Martial Ranged weapons.• Gain the Gunslinger’s level 1 features, which are listed in the Gunslinger Features table.CORE GUNSLINGER TRAITSPrimary Ability DexterityHit Point Die D8 per Gunslinger levelSaving Throw ProficienciesDexterity and CharismaSkill Proficiencies Choose 2: Acrobatics, Animal Handling, Athletics, Deception, Insight, Intimidation, Perception, Persuasion, Sleight of Hand, and StealthWeapon ProficienciesSimple weapons and Martial Ranged weaponsArmor Training Light armorStarting EquipmentChoose A or B: (A) Leather Armor, 2 Daggers, Revolver, 50 Bullets, Explorer’s Pack, and 11 GP; or (B) 175 GP70 71Gunslinger

Martyrs are implements of the gods, handpicked to die in service of a divine cause. Such an end is inevitable, for once a martyr is chosen, their fate is fixed in the heavens.Fated to DieMartyrs are chosen by the gods, predestined to die for a great cause. They are prophets and oracles, great priests and liberators. Some Martyrs struggle against their destiny, but from the moment they are chosen, invisible strings of fate pull them onward. The gods may settle for a lesser Martyr if the one chosen is unwilling, but they always prefer to uplift their Martyr to the heights of sainthood before their inevitable demise.Mortality as MagicThe gods invest their Martyr with deep wellsprings of power, but this power demands sacrifice. Drawing upon divine magic scorches a Martyr with radiance and wracks their body with pain.
