Soul crafter[edit]
In a isolated room, where only small beams of light can enter, an elf can be seen carving a small humanoid figure made of wood. Concentrating as best as he can, he marks the most exquisite details on the most exquisite wood, with such care, almost as taking care of a small baby.
On the road, a dwarf is stopped by bandits, who are expecting to make some easy coin selling the exotic and well-made armor he wears. The dwarf calmly draws out a faintly glowing blacksmith hammer and murmurs to a small trinket, molded in the shape of his clan symbol. The last thing the bandits saw was the charge of a steel giant.
A half-elf can be seen in the market every week, selling his products. Jewels of many shapes and colours that almost look magical, capable of pleasing even nobles. Many adored his craft and more desired the knowledge used in producing it. Countless merchants have tried to swindle him into an impossible debt or giving away his method, but strangely, the half-elf always seems to know their intentions.
It doesn’t matter what tools a Soul Crafter specializes in, all of them are the same in their passion for craft, and their love for their creations. Their work varies in form and function, but all are made with zeal and they consider anything they make as a piece of themselves.

True intentions[edit]
Eyes are said to be a window to the soul. As an action, for 1 minute, you can see the souls of the creatures who you look in the eye. While you can see the soul, you have advantage in intuition checks to find if they have lied or not. At 10th level, you don’t need to maintain eye contact anymore, and can also see the soul of beings without eyes. Also, you can feel the emotional state of a being while looking at it's soul. Make a Wisdom check. On a result of 15 or higher, you sense what the target's feelings are in the moment.
You can use this feature a number of times equal your Charisma modifier, and regain it uses after finishing a long rest.
Artisan's knowledge[edit]
Whenever you make an Intelligence(History/Investigation) check related to objects of art, you are considered proficient in the skill and add your proficiency bonus to the roll. You add double your proficiency bonus when the ability check is about objects or services related to the tools you have proficiency in, (e.g. If you have proficiency in Carpenter’s tools, you can use this feature in wooden objects).
Spell casting[edit]
Your power comes from the very soul, and is able to shape the world to your will. See chapter 10 for the general rules of spellcasting and chapter 11 for the artificer spell list.
- Cantrips
At 1st level, you know two cantrips of your choice from the artificer spell list. You learn additional artificer cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Soul crafter table.
- Spell Slots
The Soul crafter table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.
- Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher
You know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the artificer spell list. The Spells Known column of the Soul crafter table shows when you learn more sorcerer spells of your choice. Each of these spells must be of a level equal or less than your max spell level, as shown on the table. Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the artificer spells you know and replace it with another spell from the artificer spell list, which also must be of a level equal to or less than your max spell level, as shown on the table.
- Spellcasting ability
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your Soul Crafter spells. Your magic comes from your very soul. You use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for spells you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier
- Spell casting Focus
You can use the tools you have proficiency with as your arcane focus. Alternatively, you can use a small object that you created as a spell casting focus for Soul crafter spells. The object must be able to be held with one hand and can’t be a piece of equipment (Like a ring, unless your DM allows).
The path of creation[edit]
You can create a spark of life, taken from your own. Choose two different Soul Fragment types from the list below. You make a receptacle for each Soul Fragment, using tools you have proficiency with, to accommodate the fragment. A receptacle can be virtually anything, but must be a small object. The process takes 1 hour each, and you can do it during a short rest. Their abilities are listed at the end.
Their levels are always half of yours (rounded down). Their equipment is listed at the list bellow, and it can’t be changed. Normal healing magic doesn’t work on them and their proficiency are equal to the Soul crafter. As an action, you may summon one Soul Fragment in an unoccupied space, within 3m of you. If they are more than 18 meters away from you for more than 6 seconds, they return to the respective receptacle. They take their own turn immediately after yours if they are summoned in the middle of a fight.
If their HP reaches 0 or less, they return to their receptacle and can’t be summoned again until you finish a long rest. During a short rest, you can spend spell slots equal to half (rounded up) the Soul Fragment's level to awaken it at full health. If a receptacle is destroyed, the Soul Fragment returns to your soul and can’t be summoned. You must create a new receptacle to shelter the Soul Fragment before it can fight again.
You learn the mending cantrip, if you already didn’t know it. During a short or long rest, you can use the mending cantrip and spend 1 of your hit dice to heal up to 2 Soul Fragments. Each Hit Dice spent will heal an amount equal to your Charisma modifier + their Constitution modifier. You can do it multiple times, as long you have Hit Dice.
By 6th level, once your Soul Fragment receives an essence, they gain their own personality and alignment, accordingly to the essence received. Regardless of what their alignment is, they’re always loyal to you.
By 10th level, the Soul Fragment becomes more corporal than ethereal. Normal healing magic works on them now. Also, you can choose and make one more Soul Fragment, and maintain and summon 2 at the same time. You can only maintain the second summon for 1 minute. Once you use this feature to summon a second Soul Fragment, you must finish a short rest before using it again. The maximum range is now 36 meters.
By 14th level, the Soul Fragment's can fully materialize a body. All your Soul Fragments can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1 each, but this feature can’t increase the highest ability score. If two ability scores are tied as highest, you can increase each of them by one. This feature can't make an ability score higher than your Charisma.
By 16th level, the connection between you and your children becomes extremely strong. The range restriction is lifted, however they cannot leave the plane you are in.
By 18th level, you can maintain two Soul Fragments summoned without time restriction.
Ability Score Improvement[edit]
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th and 16th, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature. Additionally, your Soul Fragments increase one ability score of your choice and you can't increase an ability score above your Charisma using this feature.
Pure and dark soul[edit]
By 6th level, your soul has grown enough to crystallize an essence of pure and dark energy that you can imbue upon your creations. You need 1 hour, which can be done during a short rest, to produce and imbue one essence in one of your Soul Fragment. Each essence give different characteristics, which are listed at the end. By 14th level, you are able to produce one more essence, not 1 of each. The imbalance in your soul cause adverse effects in your personality, changing your alignment accordingly (e.g. You have a good alignment and decide to produce one Pure soul, so you must change it to a neutral one. If you have a neutral alignment, you must change it to a evil one. If you have an evil alignment, you can’t produce a Pure soul).
Soothe the mind[edit]
Beginning at 10th level, you are able to soothe a disturbed soul. As a reaction, you can try to negate the effect charmed/frightened of one creature that is within 18 meters of you. Also, you can disrupt the effects of magic from the schools of illusion and enchantment. Make a charisma saving throw against that spell DC, but if the effect differ from charm/frightened subtract the spell level from the roll. In a successful roll, you end the effect. If you fail, you can't use this feature again on the same target, for the same effect, for 24h. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum 1) and regain it's uses after finishing a long rest.
Zeal of the craftsman[edit]
A craftsman can sacrifice their life in the name of his art. Beginning at 14th level, you can, as an action, use your hit dice to heal your soul fragments. You must have visual contact of then and must be within 18 meters. Each Hit Die spent will heal one target an amount equal to your Charisma modifier + their Constitution modifier. You can target multiple Soul Fragments, but one Hit Die cannot heal more than one (e.g. to heal 2 Soul Fragment 1 time, you must spend 2 Hit Dice, one for each). Once you use this feature, you must finish a long rest before using it again.
Soul dualism[edit]
it Doesn't matter how much its changes, in the end, a soul fragment still is a piece of your own, and you can mend it back into your soul. At 20th level, as an action, you can return a summoned Soul Fragment to your own soul (it still counts as being summoned). You can maintain this state for 1 minute, and at the end of it, the Soul Fragment enters into a deep sleep and will only awaken once finishing a long rest. You can end this state early as a bonus action. Once you use this feature, you must finish a long rest before using it again. You gain the following benefits:
You gain all it’s features, feats and have proficiency with the equipment your Soul Fragment has.
You gain temporary HP equal to their Base Hit Points x 10. Your AC becomes the highest of the two. Add both ability modifiers (max +5) when needed (e.g. If both have +2 STR, when hitting with a weapon, use +4. When casting a spell, If one has +4 and the other has –1 in CHA, use +3). You have proficiency in all the skills the Soul Fragment has.
Clypeus: Warcaster feature, can use a shield as a spellcasting focus. When you protect someone and succeed, you can cast a spell against the attacker. The spell must have a casting time of 1 action and must target only that creature.
Unus: Warcaster feature, can use a shield(PS) or weapon(DS) as focus. Once per turn when you hit a creature with your weapon, you can expend a spell slot to deal extra 2d6 radiant(PS), necrotic(DS) or force damage to the target, plus another 1d6 per level of the spell slot higher than 1.
Impetus: Can use weapon as focus. When you take an attack action, you can cast a cantrip as a bonus action.
Spatium: Can use weapons as focus. You can imbue spells in yours arrow. If you cast a spell that needs an attack roll, you can add your DEX modifier to the attack rolls. Additionally, when you cast a spell that only has one target, you can add your DEX modifier to the damage roll. If a spell makes multiple attacks against one target, you can only add your DEX modifier to one of the damage rolls.
Plenus: You become a full caster for the duration of this feature. You know the spells from the PS/DS feature. Add +5 to one spell slot, and only one, per slot level (e.g. You have 3 SS of 1st lvl, 0 SS of 2nd lvl and 1 SS of 3rd lvl. You gain 1 SS of 6th lvl, 0 of 7th lvl and 1 of 8th lvl). The spell slots gained from this feat vanish once the duration of this feature ends or if you end it early.
Soul Fragments[edit]
The allocation of ability scores in the descriptions are recommendations, and can be changed, as long as the values are maintained (e.g.You can't mix a 14 and 12 to make two 13. You can take the 14 and swap places with the 12). All Soul Fragments have a base speed of 9 meters and are considered medium in size.
Soul fragments can't increase abilities scores with feats
The maximum HP of a Soul fragment is equal to (base hit Point(BHP) + CON modifier)x the Soul Fragment's level.
