For you the Inspired condition also gains the following additional effects, if an effect requires you reducing your Degrees of this condition, you cannot use an effect if this reduces your number of Degrees of the condition below 0:

• Passive Benefits. You gain a Faith Bonus equal to half the Degrees of this condition, this is applied to the following:
  • Your Spell Attack & Damage Rolls.
  • Your Spell TG.
  • Your Trait Tests made as part of an Eternal Rite.

• Knowledge of Faith (3 Degrees). When you use the Archival Recollection action, you can reduce your Degrees of this condition by 3, in doing so you can choose two options as part of the action's effect.

• Lesser Intervention (5 Degrees). You can reduce your Degrees of this condition by 5, to use the Cast a Spell option of your Summon Intervention action for 0AP. Once this effect has been used, you cannot do so again until you have completed a Long Rest.

You also gain the Summon Intervention action.

Once you have used this action, if you chose the Cast a Spell option you cannot use this action again until you have completed a Long Rest.

If you chose to use the Summon a Miracle option, and the intervention was successful, you can’t use this option again for 2d6 Days. Otherwise, you can use it again after you finish a Long Rest.

In addition, your Knowledge of Eternal Magic Feature, now allows you to add a 5th-Circle Spell from the Eternal Spell List to your Spellbook.

You are also Trained in the Alchemist’s Supplies.

Transmutation School Knowledge

1st Tier Transmuter Feature

Your studies into this spell school grant you further magical knowledge. Upon gaining this Feature, you immediately may add one Cantrip, 1st-Circle Spell, and 2nd-Circle Spell of the Transmutation Spell School to your Spellbook.

Spells added to your Spellbook with this Feature are always considered Prepared.

Transmutational Focus

1st Tier Transmuter Feature

Transmuters long have sought the fabled Philosopher's Stone said to be capable of allowing untold transmutational feats, you while unable to make that stone have created a stone to act as a focus for your magic, engraved with fundamental magic circles found in all transmutational magic. This stone acts as a School Specific Item for the Signature Foci Feature. Should you lose your stone a new one can be made during a Long Rest, when a new stone is made your previous one loses its power.

During a Long Rest, or a Short Rest as an Activity you can focus on the stone choosing to modify the stone with your magic to choose a number of the listed effects below, equal to your Tiers with this School, as well as the Arcane Transmutation effect:

• Arcane Transmutation. You can with a small 1 Minute ritual using this stone convert material of equivalent GP value into either one Pot of Alchemical Ink or one Page of Magically Conductive Paper.

• Resolute Form. The holder of the Focus has Advantage on Stamina Skill Rolls and Resistance to Poison damage.

• Transmutative Touch. While holding the stone you can touch a nonmagical object made of non-processed natural material such as metal ore, freshly cut lumber, raw vegetation, etc. You can convert the material from one form to another of equal mass, even if this changes the size of the object. Each Minute spent transforms 1m³ of material. This transmutation lasts for one Hour before returning to its original state.

These effects, unless specifically stated, applies to whoever is in contact with the stone. If an effect would disintegrate the stone you may expend a Spell Slot of 5th Circle or higher to maintain the stone.

True Transmutation

2nd Tier Transmuter Feature

You have sufficient understanding of transmutational theory to be able to reliably perform the basic action of true transmutation. You can transmute one nonmagical object—no larger than a 1m³ space into another nonmagical object of equal mass and of equal or lesser value. The Items produced are unable to be used for Material Components for spells that require a GP value. You must spend 10 Minutes handling the object to transform it.

You can use this Feature a number of times up to your Skill Bonus, replenishing all expended uses upon completing a Long Rest. You can expend a Spell Slot to replenish one use of this Feature.

If you spend a 6th Circle or higher Spell Slot during the process of the transformation, you can ignore the restriction of creating an object of equal or less value than your original object.

In addition, your Transmutation School Knowledge Feature, now allows you to add a 3rd-Circle Spell from the Transmutation Spell School to your Spellbook.

You gain new options with the Transmutational Focus Feature, Adaptive Form and Quickened Transmutation.

Adaptive Form. Choose one Damage Type between Acid, Cold, Fire, Force, Lightning, or Poison damage. The holder of the Focus gains Resistance to the chosen Damage Type. You can change the chosen Damage Type at the end of a Rest period.

Quickened Transmutation. When casting a spell with a Material Component with a GP value, you can use another non-magical Item with a GP value at least double the GP cost of the usual Component, to cast the spell. The offered material is Consumed by the spell even if it is not normally.

Skilled Transmuter

3rd Tier Transmuter Feature

Your studies have allowed you to find it incredibly easy to alter yourself and others. You always have the Creation and Fabricate spells Prepared. You can cast each spell once per Long Rest without expending a Spell Slot.

For you the spells Creation, Fabricate, Mending, and Minor Creation have Casting Times of 2AP.

When you cast a Transmutation School Spell targeting yourself, double the Duration of the effect on you. If the Transmutation School Spell Targets one entity at its lowest Circle, you can have the spell Target one more Target than normal for the Circle it is cast at.

In addition, your Transmutation School Knowledge Feature, now allows you to add a 4th-Circle Spell from the Transmutation Spell School to your Spellbook.

You gain new options with the Transmutational Focus Feature, Mutated Form and Warding Stone.

Mutated Form. Choose Walking, Swimming, Burrowing, or Climbing. The holder gains the chosen speed equal to their Walking speed, if you choose Walking speed the holder increases their Walking speed by 2m.

If you choose Burrowing, then the holder also gains Tremorsense out to 6m.

If you choose Swimming, then the holder also can breathe underwater.

The holder also has Advantage on Physique Tests, bar Attack Rolls, and counts as one Size Category larger when determining Carrying Capacity, Grapple and Shove effects, and the weight they can push, pull, drag, or lift.

Warding Stone. Upon failing a Trait Test to resist, avoid, or end an effect, you can choose to automatically succeed the Test with an Inspired Event.

Once you have used the effect this option of the Focus, it disintegrates.

Final Breakthrough

4th Tier Transmuter Feature

You have unlocked sufficient secrets to be able to convert your focus to be as close to that final goal of transmutational studies as possible for mortal hands. You age at a rate of 1 Year for every 5 Years that pass, you stop ageing entirely whilst in possession of your Transmutational Focus.

Whilst holding your Transmutational Focus, you can spend 8 Hours Concentrating and expend all of your unexpended Hit Die, to produce a potion like substance, a golden glowing liquid filled with liquid transmutational magic. Whoever drinks the whole potion regains all their HP and are cured of all non-magical Diseases and Poisons affecting them.

Magical Diseases and Poisons operate as if they were a spell being Targeted by the Dispel Magic spell, the GG determines the TG required to remove it.

The drinker also finds their body invigorated both in appearance and in terms of physical condition deaging by 10 Years though their lifespan is not altered. A Target cannot gain the deaging benefit of this potion again until a Year has passed.

In addition, your Transmutation School Knowledge Feature, now allows you to add a 5th-Circle Spell from the Transmutation Spell School to your Spellbook.

You gains a new option with the Transmutational Focus Feature, Stone of Rebirth.

Stone of Rebirth. You can place the stone on an applicable corpse and perform the Raise Dead rite without requiring power or materials, with it automatically succeeding should the soul be willing.

Once you have used the effect this option of the Focus, it disintegrates.
