Artificers see ‘mastering the basie methods of a craft asthe first step to true progress, the invention of new methods and approaches. Anificers are arcane engineers, students of invention and warfare who craft deadly firearms, Mechplate, and mechanical beings that they ean augment with magic. Allartficers are united by their curiosity and inventive nature. To an artfcer, magic is an evolving art with a leading ledge of discovery and mastery that pushes further ahead with ‘each passing year. Artifcers value novelty and discovery. This ‘penchant pushes them to seek a life of adventure, A hidden ruin might hold a forgotten magic item or a ‘beautifully crafted mirror perfect for magical enhancement, Antficers win respect and renown among their kind by ‘uncovering new lore or inventing new methods of creation. INTENSE RIVALRIES ‘The artifcers' drive to invent and expand their knowledge creates an intense drive to uncover new magic discoveries. An artficer who hears news of a newly discovered magic item ‘must act fast to get it before any rivals do. Good aligned artficers recover items on adventures or offer gold or ‘wondrous items to those who possess items they are keen to ‘own. Evil ones have no problem committing crimes to claim what they want. ‘Almost every artificer has atleast one rival, someone whom they seek to outdo at every turn. By the same token, artiicers ‘with similar philosophies and theories band together into loose guilds. They share their discoveries and work together to verify their theories and keep ahead of their rival.
