Artificer – Armorer
11th Level
Vasyli Gregorovich
Goliath
Vasyli is great and brilliant armorer and weapon maker. When Vasyli works, he works hard. When Vasyli drinks he drinks hard. When Vasyli fights, HE FIGHTS HARD!! Ha ha ha.
But Vasyli is also learned man, would you like some good tea and good nice book to read? Vasyli has many. (Smiles in full sincerity)
Vasyli is a very gifted Artificer/Armorer due to mostly natural talent. He is almost 7’ tall. His armor is exquisite, but obviously made for hard fighting. He takes pride in it and almost never takes it off. He only puts his helmet on for combat or when traveling in hostile territory. He will almost always be found at a forge or a tavern. Or passed out drunk later on…
Vasyli learned his craft from his venerated grandfather; whom Vasyli loves to tell tall-tales about. His grandfather was the master armorer to his clan among the Goliaths (that live in an isolated part of the mountains in Koroth, not far from Alban). He wears a white tunic and cloak over his armor (counts as robes slot). He also has issues with speaking Common properly (he hasn't mastered the whole adjectives and pro-nouns thing)

Spell Storing Item – Armor
You can now store a spell in an object. Whenever you finish a long rest, you can touch one simple or martial weapon or one item that you can use as a spellcasting focus, and you store a spell in it, choosing a 1st- or 2nd-level spell from the artificer spell list that requires 1 action to cast (you needn't have it prepared). While holding the object, a creature can take an action to produce the spell's effect from it, using your spellcasting ability modifier. If the spell requires
concentration, the creature must concentrate.
The spell stays in the object until it's been used a number of times equal to twice your Intelligence modifier (minimum of twice) or until you use this feature again to store a spell in an object.
Artificer Specialist: Armorer
Arcane Armor:
Your metallurgical pursuits have led to you making armor a conduit for your magic. As an action, you can turn a suit of armor you are wearing into Arcane Armor, provided you have smith's tools in hand.
You gain the following benefits while wearing
this armor:
• If the armor normally has a Strength requirement, the arcane armor lacks this requirement for you.
• You can use the arcane armor as a spellcasting focus for your artificer spells.
• The armor attaches to you and can't be removed against your will. It also expands to cover your
entire body, although you can retract or deploy the helmet as a bonus action. The armor replaces any missing limbs, functioning identically to a limb it replaces.
• You can doff or don the armor as an action. The armor continues to be Arcane Armor until
you don another suit of armor or you die.
Armor Model:
You can customize your Arcane Armor. When you do so, choose one of the following armor models: Guardian or Infiltrator. The model you choose gives you special benefits while you wear it. Each model includes a special weapon. When you attack with that weapon, you can add your Intelligence modifier, instead of Strength or Dexterity, to the attack and damage rolls.
You can change the armor's model whenever you finish a short or long rest, provided you have smith's tools in hand.
Guardian Option:
Thunder Gauntlets: Each of the armor's gauntlets counts as a simple melee weapon while you aren't holding anything in it, and it deals ld8 thunder damage on a hit. A creature hit by the gauntlet has disadvantage on attack rolls against targets other than you until the start of your next turn, as the armor magically emits a distracting pulse when the creature attacks someone else.
Defensive Field: As a bonus action, you can gain temporary hit points equal to your level in this
class, replacing any temporary hit points you already have. You lose these temporary hit points if
you doff the armor. You can use this bonus action a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Armor Modifications:
You learn how to use your artificer infusions to specially modify your Arcane Armor. That armor now counts as separate items for the purposes of your Infuse Items feature: armor (the chest piece), boots, helmet, and the armor's special weapon. Each of those items can bear one of your infusions, and the infusions transfer over if you change your armor's model with the Armor Model feature. In addition, the maximum number of items you can infuse at once increases by 2, but those extra items must be part of your Arcane Armor.
Extra Attack: Attack twice on attack actions
Infusions:
Enhanced Defense:
A creature gains a +1 bonus to Armor Class while wearing (armor) or wielding (shield) the infused item. The bonus increases to +2 when you reach 10th level in this class.
Enhanced Weapon:
This magic weapon grants a +l bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it. The bonus increases to +2 when you reach 10th level in this class.
Mind Sharpener – Robes - Attuned
The infused item can send a jolt to the wearer to refocus their mind. The item has 4 charges. When the wearer fails a Constitution saving throw to maintain concentration on a spell, the wearer can use its reaction to expend 1 of the item's charges to succeed instead. The item regains ld4 expended charges daily at dawn.
Helm of Awareness: Attuned
While wearing this helmet, a creature has advantage on initiative rolls. In addition, the wearer can't be surprised, provided it isn't incapacitated.
Spell Refueling Ring
Prerequisite: 6th-level artificer
Item: A ring (requires attunement)
While wearing this ring, the creature can recover one expended spell slot as an action. The recovered slot can be of 3rd level or lower. Once used, the ring can't be used again until the next dawn.
Goggles of Night – per magic item
The Right Tool for the Job: You've learned how to produce exactly the tool you need: with thieves' tools or artisan's tools in hand, you can magically create one set of artisan's tools in
an unoccupied space within 5 feet of you. This creation requires 1 hour of uninterrupted work, which can coincide with a short or long rest. Though the product of magic, the tools are nonmagical, and they vanish when you use this feature again.
Flash of Genius:
You've gained the ability to come up with solutions under pressure. When you or another creature you can see within 30 feet of you makes an ability check or a saving throw, you can use your reaction to add your Intelligence modifier to the roll. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest; 5 total times.
Magic Item Adept:
You've achieved a profound understanding of how to
use and make magic items:
• You can attune to up to four magic items at once.
• If you craft a magic item with a rarity of common or uncommon, it takes you a quarter of the
normal time, and it costs you half as much of the usual gold.
