Under the Knife: The Grafter, a Tinker Prestige Class

ADD TO WISHLIST >

"You'll be a whole new you!"

 

Go Under the Knife with the grafter, the latest prestige class for the tinker base class! Tinkers have made Super Mega Ultra Mechas, have made musical bands of their automatons, conquered the air and the sea, have controlled both the dead and the manufactured at once, and have constructed ridiculous weapons only they can use. Still, tinkers have always been an island unto themselves, a party of mechanical minions within a larger party.

That ends here.

The grafter prestige class (a 5-level prestige class) finally makes inventions a community thing. Equipped with a grafting pool, the grafter first learns how to install inventions on his own body. With sufficient practice, he learns how to install inventions on any corporeal creature that will sit still and let him. Helicopter rotors for the entire party? Check. Speed-enhancing augmentations for the monk? Check. A setup for an automatically reloading crossbow on top of the wizard's head? Double check. The grafting options are expanded beyond the already-copious inventions offered to the tinker base class through the advent of implants. Implants are treated just like any other invention with the caveat that they only function as grafts and cannot be installed on automatons.

Though it may not be as flashy as other tinker releases, the grafter will find its way into many a build. It's modular and powerful in its simplicity, making it a tool that will expand the number of tinker builds available by an amount that its page count normally wouldn't suggest.

The Grafter v.1.1

Special thanks to Thilo Graf for clubbing me over the head on this one. As with anything that expands the tinker in an odd way, precise language is required to make it work right, and that's something I only have when I roll well.

Grafting

• Inventions with the design descriptor can no longer be added.
• Anatomy that mimics inventions now satisfies the prerequisites for other inventions as though it were that invention. (Example: Do you have arms? If so, you count as having the arms invention!)
• The grafter follows the alpha's rules for invention use if his Intelligence is 3 or greater.
• The grafter can reload his own grafted inventions, like a compartment.

The Body is a Machine

• Bonus now only applies to Heal checks made to perform first aid or surgery.

Implants

• It is now clearly stated that inventions treat implants as inventions for the purpose of ANY and ALL interactions....See more

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
