Build Crafter

HD- N/A

Maximum AC- 22 / Minimum Starting Hit-Points- 6

The build-crafter is not a normal person. They appear in the world seemingly out of the aether, and have an obsession with building, mining, crafting, and other tasks to gain mastery over the land. Buildcrafters can technically roam anywhere, but most spend their time building fortresses and improving the quality of their gear. They almost never speak or sleep, rarely eat except on the move, and seem strangely unphased by the weather or attacks by monsters and wild animals. They rarely speak to anyone, but can communicate if needed.

Unlike other classes, the Build Crafter does not level up. Instead, their power is based entirely on their equipment. Give them a starting AC of 10 and a to-hit and damage bonus of +0. They gain no bonuses to saves, and begin only wearing basic clothing. With each full set of armor they craft and wear, their defensive power increases. With each weapon they craft and use, their offensive power increases along with it, regardless of the weapon's stats. Use the tier list below to determine what materials are worth what grades and levels. The To-Hit Bonus applies as magic, with the second bonus number only applying to damage when the materials get truly insane in quality.

Tier	To-Hit	AC	Material
0	0	10	None/improvised, or equipment made by others.
1	1	11	Wooden or bones.
2	2	12	Stone, obsidian, horn.
3	3	13	Basic bronze or improvised metals like tin and copper.

9	9	19	Mithril or Adamantine
10	10	20	Stone of the Firmament / Cloudstuff spun into bowstrings

12	10+2	22	Divine Ores or Cosmic Energies shaped into steel and scale

The Build-Crafter is a skilled laborer with supernatural ability to shape the land and perform heavy work. They by default work as hard and fast as three men working on a single task for basic labor all by themselves, which is further increased by whatever tools they are using. This means a Build-Crafter with a basic iron shovel may be able to clear and level a field in a few hours what would take a team of men a full day. With a magical mithril pickaxe a Build-Crafter could hollow out a mountain with some time, gathering all the raw ore and gems needed for their projects. However- to gather a material, you must have a tool of the material's tier or one less at least.

The Build-Crafters hit points are determined by their largest fortress or home, which they do not need to be in just simply kept clear of invaders or monsters inhabiting it to gain its benefit. For each tier of home, the Build Crafter gains an additional +1d6 hit points. Use the average tier of their fortress, armor, weapon, and accessories put together to determine the build-crafters HD for the purposes of spell resistance and magic item egos.

Finally; Build Crafters do not use equipment and tools built by others the vast majority of the time, they must create them themselves. The exception are other Build-Crafter beings, who will sometimes team up in wordless agreement to accomplish some huge project, or they may even kill each other to steal their equipment. Fights between build crafters can be terrifying for anyone else; they may take cover in a stone walled castle simply to have the other break through the side with a pickaxe, or create traps of explosive material to kill their foes and creating each holes in the ground.
