Dungeons & Dragons 5e Element 133 Class Feature: School of Nano Transmutation

The chemist who attends the School of Nano Transmutation learns almost magical means of altering the world around them. Through the combination of alchemy and nanotechnologies.

This feature is a prerequisite for features in the Nano Feature Tree.

Technomancy

The skills of this feature and the Nano Feature Tree rely on the use of nanomachines. These microscopic machines powered by Element 133 can move of their own accord and are controlled by a neurological implant in your brain. As a technomancer (a character that creates magical effects by using nanotechnologies) you are equipped with a Nano Canister, this canister contains millions of nano machines and provides them their power. In order to cast technomancy 'programs,' you must keep your nano canister on your person. While powerful machines that can withstand almost all damage, nanomachines must recharge their internal energy cores by returning to the canister. Acquiring additional canisters can increase your technomancy ability, but you must spend a week of downtime pairing the new canister to your Neurolink device. The Nano Canister you gain from this feature is already paired to your device and can be used in addition to any other canisters you aquire from other classes (Technician, Smith, Medic, and Ravager grant technomancy as well) or during gameplay.

Technomancy Stamina

Similar to the spell slots mechanic in D&D 5E, your technomancy has a limit to its safe usage. At each tier, you gain a number of Stamina Points that can be spent to use technomancy programs (same thing as spells from 5E). Each program has a Stamina Cost from 0-10, which generally represents the power or difficulty of the program. Differing from 5E there is no limit to how powerful a program you can cast at any given tier, provided you have learned the program and have the necessary stamina to cast it. Some programs allow you to spend additional stamina to increase the ability of a program (casting at a higher level). You may not attempt to cast a program that has a stamina cost greater than your available stamina. You regain all used stamina after a long rest.

Technomancy Abilities

Some programs require checks, saves, or attack rolls. For these, you will use the following abilities and modifiers.

Technomancy Save DC = 8 + your circuitry modifier + your Intelligence modifier

Technomancy Attack Modifier = your circuitry modifier + your Intelligence modifier.

Nano Transmutation

When you take this feature you gain a fully charged Nano Canister. The following programs are added to your code block (programs you can learn) and you may learn a number of programs equal to the known programs column in the table above, depending on your tier. The nano canister, stamina, and known programs from this feature do not stack with School of Elemental Chemistry feature. However, both features can be selected adding their programs to your code block
