Low - Moderate - High -
Basically an Artificer built around the Feat:Sculpt Self (Dr304 p46)
- Same Craft Reserve
- Bonus feats are changed:
- ?Scribe Scroll -> Craft/Scribe Magical Tattoo?
- Craft Weapons -> Craft/Enhance Natural Weapons
- Craft Armor -> Craft/Enhance Natural Armor
- Craft Wands/Staffs -> Craft SLAs as if Eternal Wands / RuneStaffs
- Craft Construct -> Craft Wondrous Creature
- Restrictions:
- May never use Magic Items/Weapons/Armor/Relics. Artifacts are ok. (items carrying temp enhancements from Infusions don't count)
- AC/Dex/ACF on all armor (even non-metal) are x2 [add other drawbacks? like no infusions while in?]
- All feats which affect the crafting of magic items now affect use of the Feat:Sculpt Self
- Can work with another creature to apply Sculpt Self to them. Both Bioficer and subject must spend the full time engaged in meditation, as would be normal for Sculpt Self.
- Variant: The nature of this work is determined by the Attribute which the Bioficer chooses to focus on:
- Int: Create a weave with the subject. [Think Sylar teaching Peter]. While displaying the intricacies of his weaving, the Bioficer leads the subject's intellect along certain pathways which trigger changes in the subj's body/mind/soul. By paying attention to the subj's own weaving, the Bioficier picks up on subtle indications of how the work is progressing and the ongoing tweaks that are necessary to tailor the work to each individual.
- Wis: Meditate with the subject. By guiding the subject in meditation, the Bioficer makes subtle alterations in the subj's interaction with manifested reality, leading to those alterations for which the subj has indicated a desire.
- Cha: Sing/art with the subject. The Bioficer uses the power of his artistic expression to elicit certain experiential states in the subj. The subj's own attempts to match the Bioficer's art evidences symptoms of the subj's current state of mind and feeling.
- Str: A constant grapple situation, using his Str to force deep changes within the physical/astral body of the subject. The ways in which the subj's body and energy systems resist tells the Bioficer everything he needs to know about how the work is progressing.
- Dex: Dance with the subject. The Bioficer leads the subj through ever more intricate body movements, looking a bit like esoteric interpretive dance to onlookers, which trigger and channel energies along certain pathways in the subj. This results in establishing a complex pattern of energy precisely tailored to bring about the desired alterations in the body/mind system of the subj.
- Con: Perform austerities (tapas) with the subject. The Bioficer and subj subject themselves to trial of endurance (heat, exertion, cold, thirst, starvation, pain, etc). This strips them both down past their surface encumbrances to allow them to both see and be seen in the purest state. By making seemingly insignificant changes in the austerity (distance/position/strain/direction of stress/relief/etc), the Bioficer is able to remove and/or reinforce chosen psychic blocks/sensitivities. The net result, once the subj recovers from the austerity and resumes a more balanced lifestyle, is the manifestation of the chosen alteration automatically and seemingly without effort.
- Variant: The nature of this work is determined by the Attribute which the Bioficer chooses to focus on:
- Infusions affect only living, not any manufactured things. Trees = yes, wood = no.
NPC - mostly a merchant of alterations. PC - as Artificer

His race may also provide bonus power points per day, as may certain feats and items.
