Abilities

Safe Haven As a faction agent, you have access to a secret network of supporters and operatives who can provide assistance
on your adventures. You know a set of secret signs and passwords you can use to identify such operatives, who can provide you with access to a hidden safe house, free room and board, or assistance in finding information.
These agents never risk their lives for you or risk revealing their true identities

Darkvision You can see in darkness within 60 feet of you as if it were dim light. However, you can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

Fey Ancestry You have advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can’t put you to sleep.

Magical Tinkering You've learned how to invest a spark of magic into mundane objects. To use this ability, you must have thieves' tools or artisan's tools in hand. You then touch a Tiny nonmagical object as an action and give it one of the following magical properties of your choice:
• The object sheds bright light in a 5-foot radius and dim light for an additional 5 feet.
• Whenever tapped by a creature, the object emits a recorded message that can be heard up to 10 feet away. You utter the message when you bestow this property on the object, and the recording can be no more than 6 seconds long.
• The object continuously emits your choice of an odour or a nonverbal sound (wind, waves, chirping, or the like). The chosen phenomenon is perceivable up to 10 feet away.
• A static visual effect appears on one of the object's surfaces. This effect can be a picture, up to 25 words of text, lines and shapes, or a mixture of these elements, as you like.
The chosen property lasts indefinitely. As an action, you can touch the object and end the property early.
You can bestow magic on multiple objects, touching one object each time you use this feature, though a single object can only bear one property at a time. The maximum number of objects you can affect with this feature at one time is equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of one object). If you try to exceed your maximum, the oldest property immediately ends, and then the new property applies.

Spellcasting You produce your artificer spell effects through your tools. You must have a spellcasting focus-specifically thieves' tools or some kind of artisan's tool-in hand when you cast any spell with this Spellcasting feature(meaning the spell has an "M" component when you cast it). You must be proficient with the tool to use it in this way. After you gain the Infuse Item feature at 2nd level, you can also use any item bearing one of your infusions as a spellcasting focus.
You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. You prepare the list of artificer spells that are available for you to cast, choosing from the artificer spell list. When you do so, choose a number of artificer spells equal to your Intelligence modifier + half your artificer level, rounded down (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of artificer spells requires time spent tinkering with your spellcasting focuses: at least 1 minute per spell level for each spell on your list.
Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your artificer spells. You can cast an artificer spell as a ritual if that spell has the ritual tag and you have the spell prepared.

Infuse Item You've gained the ability to imbue mundane items with certain magical infusions, turning those objects into magic items.
When you gain this feature, pick four artificer infusions to learn, choosing from the "Artificer Infusions" section at the end of the class's description. You learn additional infusions of your choice when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown in
the Infusions Known column of the Artificer table. Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the artificer infusions you learned with a new one.
Whenever you finish a long rest, you can touch a nonmagical object and imbue it with one of your artificer infusions, turning it into a magic item. An infusion works on only certain kinds of objects, as specified in the infusion's description. If the item requires attunement, you can attune yourself to it the instant you infuse the item. If you decide to attune to the item later, you must do so using the normal process for attunement. Your infusion remains in an item indefinitely, but when you die, the infusion vanishes after a number of days equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1 day). The infusion also vanishes if you replace your knowledge of the infusion.
You can infuse more than one nonmagical object at the end of a long rest; the maximum number of objects appears in the Infused Items column of the Artificer table. You must touch each of the objects, and each of your infusions can be in only one object at a time. Moreover, no object can bear more than one of your infusions at a time. If you try to exceed your maximum number of infusions, the oldest infusion ends, and then the new infusion applies.
If an infusion ends on an item that contains other things, like a bag of holding, its contents harmlessly appear in and around its space.

The Right Tool for the Job You've learned how to produce exactly the tool you need: with thieves' tools or artisan's tools in hand, you can magically create one set of artisan's tools in an unoccupied space within 5 feet of you. This creation requires 1 hour of uninterrupted work, which can coincide with a short or long rest. Though the product of magic, the tools are nonmagical, and they vanish when you use this feature again.

Eldritch Cannon You've learned how to create a magical cannon. Using woodcarver's tools or smith's tools, you can take an action to magically create a Small or Tiny eldritch cannon in an unoccupied space on a horizontal surface within 5 feet of you. A Small eldritch cannon occupies its space, and a Tiny one can be held in one hand.
Once you create a cannon, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest or until you expend a spell slot to create one. You can have only one cannon at a time and can't create one while your cannon is present. The cannon is a magical object. Regardless of size, the cannon has an AC of 18 and a number of hit points equal to five times your artificer level. It is immune to poison damage and psychic damage. If it is forced to make an ability check or a saving throw, treat all its ability scores as 10 (+0). If the mending spell is cast on it, it regains 2d6 hit points. It disappears if it is reduced to 0 hit points or after 1 hour. You can dismiss it early as an action.
When you create the cannon, you determine its appearance and whether it has legs. You also decide which type it is, choosing from the options on the Eldritch Cannons table. On each of your turns, you can take a bonus action to cause the cannon to activate if you are within 60 feet of it. As part of the same bonus action, you can direct the cannon to walk or climb up to 15 feet to an unoccupied space, provided it has legs.
Flamethrower The cannon exhales fire in an adjacent 15 foot cone that you designate. Each creature in that area must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC, taking 2d8 fire damage on a failed save or half as much damage on a successful one. The fire ignites any flammable objects in the area that aren't being worn or carried.
Force Ballista Make a ranged spell attack, originating from the cannon, at one creature or object with in 120 feet of it. On a hit, the target takes 2d8 force damage, and if the target is a creature, it is pushed up to 5 feet away from the cannon.
Protector The cannon em its a burst of positive energy that grants itself and each creature of your choice within 10 feet of it a number of temporary hit points equal to 1d8 + your Intelligence modifier (min of + 1 )

Arcane Firearm You know how to turn a wand, staff, or rod into an arcane firearm, a conduit for your destructive spells. When you finish a long rest, you can use woodcarver's tools to carve special sigils into a wand, staff, or rod and thereby turn it into your arcane firearm. The sigils disappear from the object if you later carve them on a different item. The sigils otherwise last indefinitely. You can use your arcane firearm as a spellcasting focus for your artificer spells. When you cast an artificer spell through the firearm, roll a d8, and you gain a bonus to one of the spell's damage rolls equal to the number rolled.

Infusions

Infusions Known: 4
Infused Items: 2 Enhanced Studded Leather, Enhanced Arcane Wand
Enhanced Arcane Focus Item: A rod, staff, or wand (requires attunement)
While holding this item, a creature gains a + 1 bonus to spell attack rolls. In addition, the creature ignores half cover when making a spell attack. The bonus increases to +2 when you reach 10th level in this class.

Enhanced Defense Item: A suit of armor or a shield A creature gains a +1 bonus to Armor Class while wearing (armor) or wielding (shield) the infused item. The bonus increases to +2 when you reach 10th level in this class.

Repeating Shot Item: A simple or martial weapon with the ammunition property (requires attunement) This magic weapon grants a + 1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it when it's used to make a ranged attack, and it ignores the loading property if it has it. If you load no ammunition in the weapon, it produces its own, automatically creating one piece of magic ammunition when you make a ranged attack with it. The ammunition created by the weapon vanishes the instant after it hits or misses a target.

Replicate Magic Item Using this infusion, you replicate a particular magic item. You can learn this infusion multiple times; each time you do so, choose a magic item that you can make with it, picking from the Replicable Items tables.

Johnny nods at Darvin's suggestion and holds his fire spitting weapon at the ready. His cannon hops from one leg to the other on his shoulder, eager to get back to it.

Vithka looked at Darvin and Roscoe and asked, "Can you shield light, just for moment? Makes it easier for me to be unseen."

OOC

If it's possible to block the light from going towards the door, Vithka will try to open the door silently and slip in. She's invisible to creatures who rely on darkvision to see her.

Vithka thanked Roscoe and Darvin quietly as they extinguished their light sources and turned to the door. She paused for a second and then opened the smallest amount she could that would still let her slip through, closing it when she was on the other side. She stood still, feeling secure in her pseudo-invisibility, and tried to get the lay of the land on the other side.

Mechanics

Opening the door and slipping in as quietly as possible

Stealth

Darvin nodded his agreement, his light fading out until only darkness remained. Once Vithka had closed the door, he whispered to the others, "If fighting starts, we need to get in there quick. I'll provide light, you guys just rush in."

Vithka held her breath as she realized where she was, or more specifically, that she was flanked by enlarged duergar, even if they couldn't see her. Her mind raced as she thought about what to do. She let a moment pass, so that the duergar might let their guards down a little and then summoned her mage hand, which was also invisible, and tapped the one closest to her on the shoulder from behind with it. She then jumped as far away as she could so that there wouldn't be obvious footprints right next to the guards. She then reached into her Bag of Tricks, grabbed a fuzzy ball and threw it to the spot she just left, hoping that would create enough noise for the others to hear, either from the summoned creature or from the response of the duergar.

Mechanics

Whew! Doing a lot here. So, first off, Vithka will wait just a bit until she notices the duergar loosening their grips on the weapons just a little. Then she will cast Mage Hand using her Githzrai Psionics, so no components necessary and it's invisible. She will use that to tap on the shoulder of the duergar to her south and as she does, she will jump as far as she can to the east. Her Strength is 10, so I think that's 10 feet? She will try to do so as quietly as she can (Stealth roll below - 23). Then, she'll use her Bag of Tricks and throw the fuzzy ball to the spot where she was. Roll for the animal below - weasel!

Okay, the weasel is not exactly that threatening a creature. Ah well, we'll see how they react.

Also, if I've done too much and you think the duergar might react to something before Vithka can complete all this, I apologize.
