Vagrant SRD - Playtest 11 - Astral Pursuits

Playtest 11 introduces a new system for those that wish to pursue crafting in their RPG. Astral Pursuits are like an ancillary class for your TTRPG character that allows them to craft, synthesise and maintain their own equipment and tools.

Alchemy is the practice of concocting potions and salves for getting the upper hand on your opponents and renewing your body with a range of potent tonics. Ideography (the study of symbols) is the practice of carving and weaving powerful, arcane glyphs that can change the effects of your tools- as well as increasing their potential in exploration and combat. Finally, Synthesis is the art of crafting new equipment from nothing but a blueprint and a slew of ingredients. Learning to create ciphers and transmute material into useable components- all with the help of some simple, streamlined mechanics.

Following the Companion Guide will encourage players to choose an Astral Pursuit or two for their characters, understanding how to go about collecting and preserving their materials and using them to build all manner of fantastical accoutrement!

Try giving your Original Characters a little boost with crafting actions and skills by following this guide.
