Spellcasting
Learning and advancing spells
Your class progression table indicates when you can learn new spells. Once you have learned a spell you do not need to "prepare" it, instead the spell is always at your disposal.
Instead of learning a new spell, you may instead choose to advance a spell you've already learned. In this case, you would select one of the advancement options listed on the spell card. You cannot advance a spell twice and you cannot learn and advance a spell at the same time.
Casting Spells
The Engineer progression table shows how many tech points you have to cast your tech spells. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a number of tech points as listed on the spell. However, most tech spells have a variable cost. In these cases, you must spend at least 1 tech point but you cannot spend more than the number listed in your progression table's "Max TP" column.
You regain 1d4 tech points at the end of a short rest and all of your tech points at the end of a long rest.
Spellcasting Ability
Engineers use a highly modified Omni-tool that requires a keen intellect to maintain. As an Engineer, you use your Intelligence whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Intelligence modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a tech spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.
Starting Equipment
- M-3 Predator, M-4 Shuriken or M-8 Avenger
- Omni-Taser, Omni-Blade or Omni-Torch

- Drone JockeyA drone jockey forms a bond with their mechanical companion, giving it a body, name and increasing its potency on the battlefield.keyboard_arrow_down
Drone Companion
With 8 hours of work and the expenditure of 5000 credits worth of materials, you augment one of your drone's VI into a rudimentary AI, then create a synthetic body, transfering the AI into the body. Choose one of the following drones: assault, combat, defense, recon, rocket.
If your drone companion is ever slain, 8 hours of work and the expenditure of 2500 credits worth of materials, can create a new body and replicate the AI from a backup.
You can still summon a temporary drone using your tech points.
Drone's Bond
Your drone companion gains a variety of benefits while it is linked to you.
- The drone companion loses its Multiattack action, if it has one.
- THe drone companion loses its vulnerability to lightning damage.
- The drone companion obeys your commands as best it can. It rolls for initiative like any other creature, but you determine its actions, decisions, attitudes, and so on. If you are incapacitated or absent, your companion acts on its own. It has advantage on saving throws against any ability that tries to influence its actions.
- Your drone companion has abilities and game statistics determined in part by your level. Your companion uses your proficiency bonus rather than its own. In addition to the areas where it normally uses its proficiency bonus, a drone companion also adds its proficiency bonus to its AC and to its damage rolls.
- Your drone companion gains proficiency in two skills of your choice. It also becomes proficient with all saving throws.
- For each level you gain after the 2nd, your drone companion gains an additional hit die and increases its hit points 1d8 (or 5) + its constitution modifier.
- Whenever you gain the Ability Score Improvement class feature, your companion’s abilities also improve. Your companion can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or it can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, your companion can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature unless its description specifies otherwise.
- Your companion shares your alignment, and has a personality trait and a flaw that you can roll for or select from the tables below. Your companion shares your ideal, and its bond is always, “The Engineer who created me is a beloved companion for whom I would gladly give my life.”
Choose your companion's trait, or roll on the table below.
Roll Trait 1 Designation: Large. Assessment: Falls hard. 2 Eliminate! 3 Scanning for enemies...Scanning for enemies...Scanning for enemies 4 Analyzing target...Weakness identified 5 Calculating all variables...optimal action determined. 6 Prioritizing...Maker's Life greater than Maker's friends' lives greater than Self-preservation Choose your companion's flaw, or roll on the table below.

At 10th level, your companion gains 10 shield points and 5 regen. Additionally, while your companion can see you, it has advantage on all saving throws.
Assault Protocol
At 14th level, your companion can use its action to make an attack against each creature within 2m of it or each creature within 2m of you. It makes a separate attack roll for each target.

It takes 2 hours to craft a single enhancement, but you can apply that benefit to any number of medi-gel cartridges. To craft another enhancement takes an additional 6 hours. Instead of using time to limit this feature, your GM can choose to allow you to add X divided by 2 (rounded up) enhancements, where X is your Intelligence modifier; then, you must finish a long rest before you can create new enhancements. Only one enhancement can be added to a medi-gel cartridge.
When creating an enhancement, choose from the list below:
Name Enhancement Stimulant After using this medi-gel, you have advantage on the next saving throw or attack roll you make within 1 minute. Opioid Within 1 minute of using this medi-gel, if you would fall below 0 hit point but not outright die, you may fall to 1 hit point instead.
