Class Abilities
Glass Blast
Once per day as a standard action the Master Gaffer can loose a 60ft cone of glass shards that deal 2d6 points of piercing damage per Gaffer level and 1d6 points of slashing damage per Gaffer level. A successful Reflex save with DC of (15 + Gaffer level + Intelligence Modifier) halves this damage. This becomes 2/day at level 3.
At level 2 the Master Gaffer can also make a special Glass Shrapnel bomb 1/day that acts as a standard grenadelike weapon (10ft spash radius), dealing his Glass Blast damage within the entire blast radius. At level 4 this becomes 2/day. At level 5 the Master Gaffer can create an extra amount Glass Shrapnel bombs equal to 1/4 his character level. Anybody can use these bombs but only the Gaffer gains the benefits of his shrapnel ability when using them. Each Shrapnel bomb takes 1 hour to create.
Improved Glassmaking
The Glass that a Master Gaffer makes is stronger, tougher and more durable than most other kinds of glass, and he learns to create it far more quickly and efficiently than most. Glass made by a Master Gaffer takes only half as long to create and uses 50% less materials (and cost) to create, as long as the Master Gaffer can use his alchemical apparatus and other tools he may need. This glass is considered to have similar properties to ironwood, Mithril or other suitable material once created, at the Master Gaffer's choice. Note that difficult materials (like Adamantine) might be more difficult or downright impossible.
Glass Armament
All weapons, shields and armor made that are created, modified or improved by a level 2 Master Gaffer using his alchemical Glass gains the masterwork quality for free, an extra 2 hardness, an extra 5 HP and costs 10% less to enchant.
Improved Glass Crafting
A level 3 or higher Master Gaffer can create virtually anything with his glass, within reason (Assume standard DC with DM discretion). Anything he creates using his Alchemical Glass also gains the benefits of Glass Armament.
In addition he can also exclude allies form the effects of his Glass Blasts and Glass Shrapnel Bomb abilities and can alter them with the appropriate Craft checks (Glass Shrapnel Mines instead of bombs, for example).
Shrapnel
Any attack using glass weapons or glass grenadelike weapons made by a level 4 Master Gaffer deal an extra 1d6 points of piercing damage. Any attack on someone wearing a Master Gaffer's armor or shield deals 1d6 points of piercing damage to the attacker. This does not damage the glass equipment.
Glass Barrier
Once per day as a standard action a level 5 Master Gaffer can create a wall or sphere of Alchemical Glass that operates similar to a Wall of Force or Forcecage effect, but can only be destroyed by disintegration or acid and is not affected by dispelling/antimagic nor does it stop ethereal creatures. The barrier has 10 hp per character level and lasts until destroyed or a new barrier is created.
OK there we go people! Please tell me what you think, especially which saves would be good and bad. :smalleek:
