Furthermore, the gearhead can make Knowledge (engineering) and Disable Device checks untrained. In addition, a gearhead can use Knowledge (engineering) to identify revolutionary technological items as if using detect magic or the Spellcraft skill. He must hold and examine the item for 1 minute to make such a check. Gadgets: Gearheads usually possess several 0-level contraptions, known as gadgets, at any one time. These contraptions are constructed, activated, and require maintenance just like any other contraption, but they contain unlimited activation charges. Gadgets can be constructed as either a worn item sized for the gearhead or a one-handed item sized for the gearhead (requiring only one hand to activate). A gadget weighs 2.5 lbs. and requires 5 minutes of work to construct. Scientific Specialty:Physicist- Fundamentals: Anytime the gearhead uses a contraption or weapon (that he personally crafted) that deals energy damage, he deals an additional amount of energy damage of the same type equal to his Intelligence modifier. This bonus damage is not increased by calibration feats or similar effects, and applies only once per contraption activation, not once per effect schematic Racial Traits:

Clever Wordplay:(Social)- Choose one Charisma-based skill. You attempt checks with that skill using your Intelligence modifier instead of your Charisma modifier. {Diplomacy} Background:
Andru was born to a Varisian Couple who travelled with a Circus. His Mother Ireenae was a Tarot Reading Fortune Teller and his father Jorge a Juggler who had a penchant for liberating customers from their purses.
The circus on its way to Almas, stopped at a Logging Camp in west Andoran, near Olfden, and The Loggers caught Jorge, and cut his hand off with an axe as punishment, leaving him to bleed out. Jorge managed to stop the bleeding and rejoin his wife and son. They left the circus when they arrived in Olfden because after all, what good is a 1 handed Juggler?!. Sinking into depression, Jorge turned to drinking to ease his ego. Ireenae worked as a server ina tavern and a seamstress and earned some extra coin reading the cards for folks. Andru had watched a performer in the circus use pistols and rifles to perform trickshots and he had watched him work on his guns for hours as a young boy and became entranced with the idea of gaining himself weapons like this ...they were near magical. He had even had the performer teach him how to use them...He has a goal to get his own guns., even if he has to make them himself. As a teen in Olfden his desire to learn how machinery worked...from mills to crossbows to siege weapons to locks, put him at odds with the boys who were more interested in the physical side of things. He was smaller and slighter and ...smarter, which they didnt like. He was ridiculed and picked on and gained a reputation as someone who was different. strange. but he also learned to talk his way out of things using his intellect to prove his point. Growing up, one of the boys though, an Ulfen son of barbarian, took a liking to Andru because they were both...different. The boy blonde and hulking was not terribly smart but he could defend himself. His name was Erik Jorgenson. Andru helped him with 'problems' of the intellectual side, while Erik helped Andru with the physical ones. When Andru left to go to Almas to learn, Erik joined the Diamond Regiment In Almas Andru spent long days teaching himself how machinery worked and learning to tinker and build. But home was with his mother and father in Olfden. The live in a small shanty on the outskits of the town, but inside of its protective walls. His room was still available when he recently returned. One of Andru's most prize possessions is the steel ammo pliers he picked up off the performer in the circus. He frequently gets it out to look at it and play with it to learn techniques for making musket balls. So once he has a gun..... The Problem is, hes realized, guns cost lots of coin. He has to find a way to gain that coin...and his skills as a locksmith or siege engineer have limited potential for gain. On his way back to Olfden from Almas a few months ago, The Caravan Andru was travelling with was attacked by bandits and one of the guards helped defend the caravan turned into a werewolf in front of Andru to defend the young man, slaying several bandits. His name is Graydon . Graydon swore Andru to secrecy, and Andru feels he owes Graydon his life. Can a werewolf be good? a morale dilemma for certain. This simple example of self sacrifice has led Andru to remember Eriks standing up for Andru and he is beginning to wonder if theres a point to standing up for others.... |
