“I shall resurrect you as a new creature. A better creature. A perfect creature.”

As the son of a skilled necromancer, Einbach was immersed in the secrets of undeath throughout childhood. Though he failed to inherit his mother’s immense magic potency, he countered that insufficiency with an intellectual genius towards mechanical innovation. Upon amassing considerable wealth and resources from academic innovations, Einbach’s macabre discoveries into the infusion of necromancy with complex mechanisms and exotic chemicals lead him to pioneer construct and undead fusion.

TRAITS

Concentration. Einbach has Advantage on Constitution saving throws to maintain Concentration.

Facilitated Revival. When Einbach casts Revivify or Raise Dead, the cost of any Material components needed for that spell is halved.

Homunculus Servant. Einbach has a homunculus familiar.

Jolt to Life (5/Long Rest). When Einbach casts Spare the Dying, he can modify the spell so that it sends a jolt of electricity through the target, reviving it. The target regains 1 Hit Point, and each creature in a 10-foot Emanation originating from the target makes a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creatures take 10 (1d4 + 8) Lightning damage. On a successful save, they take half as much damage.

Magic Item Savant. Einbach can now attune to up to five magic items at once rather than three.

Reanimated Companion (1/Long Rest). Einbach created a Reanimated Companion through the power of necromancy and science.

Replicate Magical Item. When Einbach finishes a Long Rest, he can create five different magic items if he has Tinker’s Tools in hand, choosing the item from the following list: Goggles of Night, Returning Weapon, Shield +2, Wand of the War Mage +2, Wraps of Unarmed Power +2, Armor +2, Ring of Protection. If a created item requires Attunement, Einbach can attune himself to it the instant he creates it. If he decides to attune to the item later, he must do so using the normal process for Attunement. If Einbach tries to exceed his maximum number of magic items for this feature, the oldest item vanishes, and then the new item appears. A magic item created by this feature functions exactly like the normal magic item, except its magic isn’t permanent. When Einbach dies, the magic item vanishes after 2 (1d4) of days. Einbach can use any Wand or Weapon created by this feature as a Spellcasting Focus in lieu of using a set of Artisan’s Tools.

Spell-Storing Item. Whenever Einbach finishes a Long Rest, he can touch one Simple or Martial weapon or one item that he can use as a Spellcasting Focus, and store a spell in it, choosing a level 1, 2, or 3 Artificer spell that has a casting time of an action (Einbach needn’t have the spell prepared). While holding the object, a creature can take an action to produce the spell’s effect from it, using Einbach’s spellcasting ability modifier. If the spell requires Concentration, the creature must concentrate. The spell stays in the object until it’s been used a 10 times or until Einbach uses this feature again to store a spell in an object.

Spellcasting. Einbach is a 15th level spellcaster. He casts spells using Intelligence as the spellcasting ability (spell save DC 18, +10 to hit with spell attacks). Einbach can perform the Somatic components of spells even when he has weapons or a Shield in one or both hands. He can use his Artisan’s Tools as a Spellcasting Focus.

The companion is Friendly to Einbach and his allies and obeys Einbach. It lasts until Einbach finish a Long Rest or until he takes a Magic action to dismiss it early, at which point it harmlessly collapses into a pile of viscera. It immediately drops to 0 Hit Points and dies (triggering its Death Burst trait) if Einbach dies. Once Einbach creates a companion, he can’t do so again until he finishes a Long Rest or expends a spell slot to create one. Einbach can have only one companion at a time and can’t create one while his companion is present.

Returning Spear. Melee or Ranged Attack Roll: +6 to hit, reach 5 feet or range 20/60 feet. Hit: 4 (1d6 + 1) Piercing damage.

The item lasts until Einbach finishes a Long Rest, at which point it vanishes.

Transmute Magic Item (1/Long Rest). As a Magic action, Einbach can touch one magic item within 5 feet of himself that he created with Replicate Magic Item and transform it into a different magic item. The resulting item must be based on a magic item plan Einbach knows.

BONUS ACTIONS

Charge Magic Item. Einbach can touch a magic item within 5 feet of himself that he created with Replicate Magic Item and uses charges. He recharges the item and expends a level 1+ spell slot. The number of charges an item regains is equal to the level of spell slot expended.

Drain Magic Item (1/Long Rest). Einbach can touch a magic item within 5 feet of himself that he created with Replicate Magic Item and causes the item to vanish, converting its magical energy into a spell slot. The slot is level 1 if the item is Common or level 2 if the item is Uncommon or Rare. Any spell slot Einbach creates with this feature vanishes when he finishes a Long Rest.

“The key to negotiation is simple: let them think it was their idea.”

Shinare was an orphan raised by itinerant mercenaries. Throughout his youth the regiment fought across mountainous territories where Shinare learnt swordsmanship ubiquitous to the region. He would later come into possession of an ancient blade that promised incalculable power in exchange for blood and slaughter in its name. The deal was struck, and though in time Shinare realized the magnitude of his mistake, he adheres to his end of the bargain so long as the entity maintains its role in kind.

“Celerity. Accuracy. Lethality.”

Kaizen never sought to be an assassin… it just happened his swordsmanship suited assassination. As a practitioner of iaido his technique relies on first strike. Kaizen’s pragmatic methodology to exploit blindspots, inflict inhumane wounds, and withdraw from reach during duels lead to accusation of dishonor. Yet the core deterministic factor could be Kaizen’s distain for the katana and overwhelming perference for the wakizashi. Thus his options for employment fell into the influence of criminal syndicates and unscrupulous nobles.
