Mechanic

The mechanic is trained in Crafting, but a master in Crafting for mechanical devices, siege weapons, and vehicles. They can Repair in 1 minute instead of 10 minutes, or in 3 actions for a mechanical device, siege weapon, or vehicle.

For encounters involving mechanical repair, the mechanic is an 8th-level challenge.

The mechanic pushes a mechanical device, siege weapon, or vehicle pasts its regular limits with a temporary upgrade chosen from the list below. An item can have only one risky upgrade at a time. If an item has an upgrade at the start of the mechanic's turn, the mechanic must attempt a DC 5 flat. (These flat checks continue even if the mechanic is dead or otherwise can't take turns.) On a failure, the item explodes, dealing damage equal to the item's level to all adjacent creatures and ending the upgrade. • Overheat Weapons If the item would deal damage, it deals an additional 1d6 fire damage. This increases to 2d6 if the item is 8th level or higher. • Pressured Plating The item gains a +3 status bonus to its Hardness and gains temporary Hit Points equal to double its level that last for 10 minutes. • Propelled Boost If the item has a Speed, the item gains a +15-foot status bonus to Speed.
