Chemist in Element 133 | World Anvil

Chemist

Utilizing almost little to no magic in their arsenal, Chemists are masters of manipulating the physical properties of different materials to their advantage. Whether that be creating valuable pharmaceuticals, flammable liquids, electroplating armor, or animating artificial flesh. They are scientists at heart, thorough investigators of the universe to solve problems. Because of the rigor of studies, working methodically in laboratories, and a high inclination to put order and structure to the universe, most scientists and chemists are aligned to be lawful. However, due to the chaotic nature and lack of understanding from the general public. Some Chemists turn "mad" and are either much eviler or much more chaotic in alignment.

You may select this class as your base class by selecting a Tier One Chemist class feature as your first feature, doing so grants you the abilities, proficiencies, equipment, and features listed under Base Class Features for no AXP cost. These cannot be gained from multiclassing. To multiclass to the Chemist class select any feature of your current Tier + 1 or lower for which you meet the prerequisites and pay the appropriate multiclassing fee found in Character Creation.


Amidst the carnage, an older man gleefully steps from behind the Bruiser. A newly fashioned explosive in hand. He doesn't know what will happen when it goes off, but he'll enjoy every minute of it. As the bomb is thrown into the bunker the sounds of screaming are quickly snuffed as a thick paste expands rapidly through the tunnels below. Suffocating the guards where they stand.

A young man stands in an alley, fumbling with his glasses. As three shady men approach him, thinking him an easy target, he pulls back his coat. Numerous vials of different sizes dangle on a belt strapped to his chest. In quick motions, he downs one potion grabs another and tosses it toward the attackers. With a bang and a flash, it splashes on the pavement. As the men come to the Chemist is gone.

A woman approaches a duel scheduled for today, with no weapon at her side. Her opponent seems put off by this but continues nonetheless. With a quick touch of the chemist's hand to the ground, an electrical current runs from her to the earth, and a beautifully crafted longsword rises from the cobblestone street, its edge gleaming with an electrified sharpness. She smiles at her prey.

A crackling sound emits from the mortar. With great care, she fills its contents into a bigger jar making the gooey mass inside watery and opaque. The liquid moves. Different contents fight each other in a struggle to combine themselves. Hastily she puts a lid on the container, closes it shut with clamps, and weighs on top. She takes a step back and waits. The jar jerks with a suffocated thump. She raises an eyebrow in confusion. Then the lid is blasted off, the clamps flying in all directions, the weights hitting the ceiling. Most of the concoction is still in the jar. What has spilled out is burning deep holes in the wood of the alchemist's table. A faint smile flashes over her face as she beholds her discovery.

Despite the differences between these characters they are characterized by the Chemist's radical problem solving, intelligent defense, and a lack of concern for consequences of their own actions. This doesn't necessarily make them evil, but they definitely have a different view of the world from other heroes. Preferring to always see the bigger picture, and letting the ends justify the means.

A Toxic Work Environment

The discovery of Element 133 was a huge advancement for humankind. But it wasn't all peaches and cream, the technology was forcibly released to the public far too early from a science and safety standpoint. Not enough is known about the particle and many of its uses and dangers are merely theory. Many scientists, chemists, and physicists around the world warned against the usage of the new element in the Apophis missiles. But propaganda from the government and media made the general public believe in their safety. After an already tarnished reputation due to rumors of the attempted withholding of Element 133 from the world. Many people stopped trusting in organized science. Some continued their life studies, while others journeyed out into the changing world to overcome the consequences of untested science.


Chemists in Pop Culture

Singed from League of Legends and Arcane, Tiny Tina from the Borderlands videogames, Spider-Man, The Lizard, and Green Goblin from Spider-Man, Dr. Doofenshmirtz from Phineas and Ferb, Dr. Robotnik from the Sonic the Hedgehog video games, Gruu from Despicable Me, Honey Lemon from Big Hero Six, Walter White from Breaking Bad, Dr. Drakken and Shego from Kim Possible, GLaDOS from the Portal video games, and Junkrat from Overwatch.

Creating a Chemist

As you create your chemistry, think about why you decided to pursue the knowledge of chemistry and physics and why you applied it to combat. Was it for curiosity and thirst for knowledge? Did you try to compensate for the lack of physical prowess with your intellect? Have you been trained for a specific military organization in a country or realm? Think about how your knowledge and your discoveries define you. Do you act as a warrior, just using your potions and elixirs as weapons, or as a scientist, treating the battlefield as a laboratory for your studies?

The Chemist class is an extremely powerful combat class. While dramatic explosions, transmutations, and manipulation of the elements, have a terrific application on the battlefield, they are also extremely volatile. Managing your limited resources and protecting against the chaotic nature of your weaponry will be important. The Smart Hero and Fast Hero are good multiclass for all Chemists. For enhancing the abilities of certain feature trees, the Chemist may consider multiclassing into Tough Hero, Hustler, Scout, Smith, or Medic.

Free Features

Intro to Chemistry - 0 AXP

TIER ONE FEATURE: Intro to Chemistry

    • AXP: 0
    • Pre-Requisites: Selected Chemist as base class
    • Grants Access To: None

You have discovered a process that can temporarily alter the physical properties of one simple object, changing it from one substance into another. You perform a special alchemical procedure on one object composed entirely of wood, stone (but not a gemstone), iron, copper, or silver, or simple composites of such, transforming it into a different one of those materials. For every 10 minutes you spend performing the procedure, you can transform up to 1 cubic foot of material. After 1 hour, the material reverts to its original substance. The effect may be made permanent by spending a short or long rest to do so, you are limited to one cubic foot of material per rest. And you may not spend this rest crafting or preparing any other materials.

Additionally, you know the fundamentals of handling chemicals with care and protecting yourself from harm. You have +2 to all Wisdom, Intelligence, or Dexterity-related checks and saving throws in matters of chemicals and their reactions.


 
The Alchemist's Practice - 0 AXP

TIER ONE FEATURE: The Alchemist's Practice

    • AXP: 0
    • Pre-Requisites: Selected Chemist as Base Class
    • Grants Access To: None

Chemistry originated from the study of Alchemy. As such the base of any Chemist's education is the discovery and use of common materials to enact chemical reactions. You will gather ingredients, process them into essences and combine these to produce potions, elixirs, and bombs. You may acquire the Alchemist's Supplies tool for free when you take this tier or spend a long rest crafting one. Alchemists can produce the recipes available to them provided they have the tools and ingredients. Producing Potions or Bombs from essences requires merely a Standard Action. Producing essences however takes time and effort.

Producing essences requires an ability check in Alchemy, which is Sleight of Hand and Nature combined: DEX + INT + Proficiency Bonus if either one or both are proficient. Roll a d20 to perform Alchemy. Check the bottom of the page for a table with all the DCs

Consult the table The Essence of Alchemy in The Alchemist's Compendium for the recipes for essences. On a failed Alchemy check some ingredients may be lost and no essences are produced. You choose the ingredients which are lost. Consult this table when determining the outcome of your Alchemy roll.

Alchemy DC


Degree of FailIngredients Lost
-1 to -2 under DCno ingredients lost, try again!
-3 to -5 under DC1 ingredient lost
-6 to -10 under DC50% of ingredients lost (round up)
-11 and lower under DCall ingredients lost

In a short rest a Chemist may produce 2 + (2 x your proficiency bonus) essences using his Alchemist's Kit. When using an Alchemy table you may produce any number of essences in a short rest. Performing Alchemy over the course of a short or long rest is not considered strenuous activity and you still gain the advantages from taking a rest. An Alchemy table may be found in places of science and healing, or a portable table may be acquired and carried with you. Performing Alchemy and preparing potions may be done during downtime activities.

Supply Pouch and Belt

An Chemist always carries his supplies on his person. He may carry 6 potions, elixirs, or bombs in his belt. In his pouch, they may store any number of herbs and essences. Any items carried in the pouch or belt do not weigh down the chemist. A chemist may store any essences or ingredients in a stash, for example in the drawers of an alchemy table or a chest at a secret location. These do not expire once collected and do not have to be used within a certain time frame.

The belt can be upgraded by leatherworkers in steps of 2 slots for potions, elixirs, or bombs at the 3rd, 5th, and 7th tiers. The alchemist must spend a short rest alongside a leatherworker PC or NPC and provide materials with a value of at least 4.

When going into battle a chemist is always equipped with his special belt. Due to the frail makeup of the mixtures, he cannot carry filled vials in a traditional backpack, although some special cases can be used, for they might crack.

Searching for Ingredients

Chemists may search for herbs in any given area. They may invest 1, 10, or 60 minutes to search for specific herbs (max 3) which need to be named by the player, for example: "I want to go upstream and into the hills and search for Silverleaf and Ironstalk for 10 minutes."

Forage: INT + WIS + Proficiency Bonus if either one or both of Nature and Perception are proficient. Roll a d20 to search.

Depending on the score you will make a number of finds. Consult this table to determine the outcome of your roll.

Foraging Finds


Difficulty Class:51015202530
# of finds for 1 min011223
# of finds for 10 min122345
# of finds for 60 min567101620

You may choose which of the declared herbs were found. Choosing a rare herb counts as 2 finds. Finding one herb multiple times is allowed. Be aware that for example one find of Toadroot means receiving 3 units of this herb, as detailed in the Herbs of the New World table in the Alchemist's Compendium. The DM may also place a herb in your path that you may find without the need to search for it.

Starting Essences and Ingredients

When you take this feature at tier one you may select 5 Essences and 10 Ingredients or Herbs from the tables found in the Alchemist's Compendium to begin play with.

The Alchemist's Compendium

Every decent chemist knows the common alchemical recipes. They are taught at school and you can find them in the basic books of your profession. Access to advanced alchemy is thereby restricted by the DC of the essence production and the rarity of the ingredients. A tier 1 Alchemist can throw powerful bombs or administer extraordinary elixirs. However, this doesn't come without risk. Each recipe has a RIsk DC, this score indicates a DC to avoid complications. When using a potion, elixir, or bomb you will roll a risk check: d20 + your tier + your proficiency bonus. Depending on how poorly you roll there may be disastrous consequences. Consult The Alchemist's Compendium for more detailed information. Other recipes or application methods beyond bombs, potions, and elixirs might be learned through the teachings of certain schools or discoveries. In rare cases, a chemist might even invent recipes never seen before. Consult your DM with your ideas! (Only do this at higher tiers)

Chemistry Ability

Some potions and effects ask you to use a modifier or save DC. Intelligence is your ability for your chemistry elixirs. You use your Intelligence whenever a potion or feature refers to your chemistry modifier.

In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier and proficiency bonus for the save DC of an elixir, potion or bomb, or Chemist feature you use unless explicitly stated.

Chemist Save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier.

Chemistry modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier.

When you drink or administer this mutagen the character gains a +1 bonus to their AC and gains advantage on all Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution ability checks for 1 hour. You can create two mutagens upon reaching 5th tier and three upon reaching 7th tier. You can only be under the effects of one mutagen at a time. Attempting to drink a second mutagen cancels out both mutagens and gives you two levels of exhaustion.

Perhaps the most obscure school of alchemy, the School of the Venomist focuses on creating deadly poisons with a variety of debilitating effects.

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

You become a master with the blowgun. Your range increases to 40/120. Your blowgun no longer has the ammunition property. Also, if the target has light or no armor (for creatures: if they do not have hard scales, thick fur or something comparable) you gain advantage on Attack Throws within short range, as you aim for their soft spots.

Additionally, having researched the art of refining deadly toxins you have learned to produce toxins of higher concentration. You may increase a Toxic Concoction I's concentration by adding another essence of =POISON=. 5 levels of concentration is the maximum. The concoction may be applied to two pieces of ammunition or to a weapon. On a hit with the ammunition or weapon the Toxic Concoction is applied and the ammunition or weapon loses it's ability to poison. A Toxic Concoction of a higher concentration deals 1d4 additional poison damage x level of concentration. The target can make a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC at the beginning of its turn to reduce the effect by one level of concentration on a success.

    • Pre-Requisites: Selected Chemist as base class and Proficiency in the Circuitry skill
    • Grants Access To: None

The chemist who attends the School of Elemental Chemistry 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 Elemental Chemistry Feature Tree.

Technomancy

The skills of this feature and the Elemental Chemistry 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. 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 acquire from other classes (Technician, Smith, Medic, and Ravager grant technomancy as well) or during gameplay.

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.

Reagent Research - 12250 AXP

TIER FOUR FEATURE: Reagent Research

    • AXP: 12250
    • Grants Access To: None

Your knowledge of how chemicals and elements react has become so advanced that you can easily determine the nature of most substances. Additionally, you have begun to experiment to craft your own variations of common Essences.

Reagent Kit

When you take this feature you may acquire a Reagent Kit for free from a merchant, or spend three long rests crafting one. This kit of alchemical reagants is used to test the properties of items and objects.

It includes three spoons, lead, silver, and aluminum, and nine glass vials; two are empty, the other seven are filled with Purple Flan (a living slime not dissimilar to slime molds and ochre jelly), gold dust, iron dust, granite dust, decaying uranium, acid, and ammonia.

If you have proficiency with an Alchemy, you can use an action, to pour a portion of a vial (each having enough for five doses, which can be purchased at most settlements) on a targeted item to determine its properties.

  • Purple Flan reacts to magical items, seeming to boil when touching a non-cursed one but withering away upon touching a cursed one. It will consume small amounts of potion and be subject to its effects.

  • Decaying Uranium reacts to radiation generally, being attracted to already decaying elements and radioactive material.

  • Gold dust is unreactive in general and is generally used to detect the presence of technomancy effects, as it will only corrode in their presence.

  • Iron Dust reacts to technomancy, seeming to magnetize when touching a non-technical object but vibrating away upon touching any technomancy.

  • Mummy Dust evaporates into smoke when exposed to positive energy, and seems to grow upon exposure to negative energy.

  • Granite Dust is attracted to oil and wet surfaces and can be used to dust for fingerprints or detect moisture.

  • Acid and Ammonia are used to test the general pH of materials. And can be used to accurately determine the nature of any unknown chemicals, elements, potions, elixirs, or bombs.

"I can't believe it's not Butter"

When crafting Essences, Potions, Elixirs, and Bombs that use a Common or Uncommon ingredient you may replace any one ingredient with another. This does not have any adverse effect on the item but it does increase the Risk DC by +1 for Common ingredients and +2 for Uncommon ingredients.


 
Grenadier: Shaped Charge - 11200 AXP

TIER FOUR FEATURE: Grenadier: Shaped Charge

You have learned how to change how your bombs explode. Whenever you craft a potion, you can change the explosion from its typical area of effect. If changing from a line AOE (Area of Effect) to any other shape you will halve the distance. And the reverse is true as well when changing any other AOE to a line. For example, a bomb with a 30 ft line effect will effect a 15 ft, sphere. And a bomb with a sphere of 30 ft, will change to a 60 ft line. All other transformations utilize the same dimensions.

Cone

A cone extends in a direction you choose from its point of Origin. A cone’s width at a given point along its length is equal to that point’s distance from the point of Origin. A cone’s area of Effect specifies its maximum length. A cone’s point of Origin is not included in the cone’s area of Effect, unless you decide otherwise.

Cube

You select a cube’s point of Origin, which lies anywhere on a face of the cubic Effect. The cube’s size is expressed as the length of each side. A cube’s point of Origin is not included in the cube’s area of Effect, unless you decide otherwise.

Cylinder

A cylinder’s point of Origin is the center of a circle of a particular radius, as given in the bomb's description. The Circle must either be on the ground or at the height of the Effect. The energy in a Cylinder expands in straight lines from the point of Origin to the perimeter of The Circle, forming the base of the Cylinder. The bomb’s Effect then shoots up from the base or down from the top, to a distance equal to the height of the Cylinder.

A cylinder’s point of Origin is included in the cylinder’s area of Effect.

Line

A line extends from its point of Origin in a straight path up to its length and covers an area defined by its width. A line’s point of Origin is not included in the line’s area of Effect, unless you decide otherwise.

Sphere

You select a sphere’s point of Origin, and the Sphere extends outward from that point. The sphere’s size is expressed as a radius in feet that extends from the point.

A sphere’s point of Origin is included in the sphere’s area of Effect.

TIER SIX FEATURE: Biochemist: Homunculus

The biochemist pursues the creation of life itself, or at the very least the imitation of life. Using living creatures parts stored and preserved, they mold and infuse organic material into living matter. Due to the martial aspect of the brand of alchemy practiced by the Chemist, usually the focus of the homunculus created by the combat homunculist is to serve as a soldier and spy for its master.

You can spend 8 hours and 10 VP in materials to craft your homunculus. Your homunculus can be the copy of any creature you have already seen that has a CR of 1/4 from the following types: humanoid, undead, beast, plant, construct or monstrosity, though it is a construct, instead of the original type. You also must have a portion of organic matter of this creature (a drip of blood, a hair, nails, etc). Any chosen creature that has a Intelligence score of 5 or lower will have 6 instead. You can communicate telepathically with your homunculus as long as both of you are in the same plane of existence.

In combat, your homunculus acts in the same initiative count as you, but the only action it can take is the Dodge action, unless you command it to take another action on its statblock or the Dash, Disengage, Dodge, Hide and Search actions as a bonus action. Your homunculus can take any action if you are unconscious or incapacitated, but it will focus on protecting you. Your homunculus uses your proficiency bonus, instead of its own, and adds it to its AC.

You can control up to 4 homunculus at the same time. Starting at Tier 8, this number increases to 6 and again to 8 at Tier 10. Alternatively, you can choose to have a single homunculus with a CR of 1 at Tier 6, 2 at Tier 8 and 3 at Tier 10.

Advanced Creations
