Catalyst

Spellcast Trait: Knowledge

For Artificers who analyze weaknesses and amplify offensive potential.

Foundation

Overcharge: When you spend Spark to Help an ally on an attack and it succeeds, roll another die of the same size as your Spark die and add the result to the damage dealt to one target.

Reverse Engineer: Once per scene, when you study a creature, device, or magical effect, ask the GM one question about how it functions, what it can do, or how it might be disrupted. The GM answers truthfully. The first action roll that acts on this information has advantage.

Specialization

Feedback Loop: When an attack enhanced by Overcharge deals Major or greater damage, the target becomes Vulnerable until the end of their next action. If the attack deals Severe damage, gain 1 Spark.

Mastery

Perfect Calibration: When you roll bonus damage from Overcharge, roll two Spark dice instead of one and add both results to the damage.

1 Spark: 2d8 - 2 Spark: 2d10 - 3 Spark: 2d12

Safeguard

Safeguard

Spellcast Trait: Knowledge

For Artificers who build countermeasures and keep their allies alive and positioned safely.

Foundation

Countermeasures: When you or an ally within Close range takes damage, spend up to 3 Spark. Roll 1d8 for each Spark spent and reduce the incoming damage by the total before comparing it to Damage Thresholds.

Emergency Egress: When Countermeasure lowers the damage by at least one severity, the protected character can immediately move to a safe position within Very Close range

Specialization

Reinforced Design: When Countermeasure lowers the damage by at least one severity, the protected character clears 1 Stress and gains +1 Evasion until the next attack against them resolves.

Mastery

Failsafe: Once per scene, after Countermeasure lowers the damage by at least one severity, reduce the damage by one additional severity.
