Final Primal Power Subclass: Climatologist Research Field

Climatologist Research Field

You study the science of the environment on a larger scale, learning weather patterns of distinct areas and formulating how to bottle them down into one hand.

Formulas Two common 1st-level alchemical bombs.

Field Benefit When throwing an alchemical bomb with the splash trait, you can choose to remove the splash trait and deal no splash damage to create hazardous terrain in a single 5-foot square adjacent to the target that lasts for 4 rounds as a small climate anomaly. You do not create this hazardous terrain if your Strike was a critical failure. This hazardous terrain deals damage of the same type as the bomb would deal of an amount equal to its splash damage. A creature that moves on the ground through the area takes damage for every square of that area it moves into or if they end their turn in the area.

Field Vials Choose one of the following climates; you gain the listed effects. tropical (water), dry (fire), temperate (electricity), continental (air) or polar (cold). When you Strike with a versatile vial, you can choose to have it deal the damage type listed in your climate’s table instead of acid If you do it gains the trait appropriate for your climate and loses the acid trait.

Field Discovery 5th Your climates are more expansive. You can now create hazardous terrain in a 5-foot burst that must include the target of the Strike.

Advanced Vials 11th You can create additional climates after further study. You can create a versatile vial of any climate instead of only the one you chose at 1st level.

Greater Field Discovery 13th Your climates have become larger, mobile problems on the battlefield. When you throw an alchemical bomb with the splash trait and create hazardous terrain, you can choose to have the hazardous terrain move up to 10 feet at the end of each of your turns. It must move in the same direction and speed at the end of each of these turns, but stops if it would contact a barrier.
