'''Archetype Feat Bonus are based on HD.'''

* '''1 HD''': You gain a +2 bonus each for 1 [[SRD:Craft Skill|Craft]], 1 [[SRD:Knowledge Skill|Knowledge]] and 1 [[SRD:Profession Skill|Profession]] of your choice. You may use either your [[SRD:Wisdom|Wisdom]] or [[SRD:Intelligence|Intelligence]] for trained [[SRD:Craft Skill|Craft]], [[SRD:Knowledge Skill|Knowledge]] and [[SRD:Profession Skill|Profession]] checks.
* '''3 HD''':  You craft at an additional multiple of the normal crafting rate (typically making you twice as fast). You may craft non-consumable, charge-less "prototype" items. A prototype costs 40% market price to create and may be disassembled back into raw components (regaining any raw materials and XP you spent on making it). You can turn a prototype into a normal item by working in the remaining 10% market price cost later. The prototype must be worked by you for 1/2 hour per day to maintain functionality, otherwise it goes inert (but may be worked again to reactivate) for magic items or gains the Broken condition for non-magical items. This trait is obvious if it has a magical aura. Additionally, you gain a "Knowledge Specialty" or "Profession Specialty", such as Knowledge (the planes: the plane of fire) or Profession (marine biologist: whale biologist). You gain a +3 bonus on checks applying to your specialty.
* '''8 HD''': You may "take 10" and roll a d20 for trained [[SRD:Craft Skill|Craft]], [[SRD:Knowledge Skill|Knowledge]] or [[SRD:Profession Skill|Profession]] checks, taking the better result. When attempting, you automatically [[SRD:Aid Another|aid]] any [[SRD:Craft Skill|Craft]], [[SRD:Knowledge Skill|Knowledge]] or [[SRD:Profession Skill|Profession]] check you have trained.
* '''15 HD''': You craft at an additional multiple of your normal crafting rate. When [[SRD:Aid Another|aiding another]] for a trained [[SRD:Craft Skill|Craft]], [[SRD:Knowledge Skill|Knowledge]] or [[SRD:Profession Skill|Profession]] check, you may use your die roll (or your "take 10") in place of the primary roller's result if your result is higher.</onlyinclude>
