Artifice Crafter

“

What purpose do our dreams serve if we cannot create our own?

”

Prerequisite: Dreamweaver Class

You are the creator of your dreams, and your creations serve a greater purpose than just becoming amble thoughts. They are yours to control. Under the guidance of your deity, you can let loose your creations and strike fear right into the hearts of your enemies, or you can shine the light upon your enemies and let the hammer of fate decide their impending doom.

Artifice Crafter Path Features

Artifice Action (11th Level): When you spend an action point to take an extra action, you also gain one Dream Point.

Create Dreams (11th Level): An artifice crafter deals additional damage when they collect Dream Points, which can be obtained by accomplishing certain actions, such as using Channel Divinity powers, dealing damage with daily powers, or by healing party members. Each Dream Point accumulated can be spent to further empower an attack power by dealing damage. 1 Dream Point adds an additional damage die to the attack power. See the tables below for more about Dream Points.

Artifice Trade (16th Level): You can convert one Dream Point to a +5 bonus to attack rolls, AC or one other defense, saving throw, or skill check as a free action.
