You have spent time working in the deep oceans in service of those that require maintenance of submerged equipment. You spent time training to dive to depths most couldn't dream of (200m) and have learnt to manage the changes in pressure. You were trained to unclog, service repair and protect the machines.
- Skill Proficiencies: Athletics, Perception
- Tool Proficiencies: One artisans tools of your choice
- Languages: One language of your choice
- Equipment: A heavy duty dredge suit, and helmet with in-build light source for searching deeper depths.
Suit: The material of the suit is made to be heavy duty but offers some flexibility to allow for fluid movement. It is resistant to crushing pressure and corrosion from saltwater. The suit includes a weight balancer to add weight where needed to maintain buoyancy at deeper depths and an emergency buoyancy bladded for rapid ascents. Although be aware that should you rise to quickly to the surface this could result in death. The suit includes an in-built magical rebreather that allows the diver to descend to great depths. There is also a depth meter located on the left forearm, that glows faintly.
Helmet: The helmet consists of the same material as the suit with the added bonus of an embedded torch located above the brow. It emits a steady, bluish-white beam powered by a sealed arcane crystal. Provides 60ft of vision in clear waters and 30ft in murky waters. The viewport consists of a triple-layered glass with anti-fog enchantment.
You've spent years submerged in rusted hulls and flooded chambers, coaxing life back into broken machines. Salvage crews and rogue submersible operators recognize your skill and may offer shelter, food, spare parts, or passage in exchange for repairs or diagnostics. You ignore disadvantage from working in submerged or low-visibility conditions when using tinker's tools, smith's tools or similar kits.
You trained to help those who's loved ones have been lost to the sea, how handle the unnerving silence of the ocean and the dangers that lurk beyond what you can see.
You’ve survived depths that crush steel and silence screams. Your experience makes you valuable to deep-sea salvage teams and abyssal researchers. You work is revered as a sacred duty, and you are treated with solemn respect. Families and friends whose lost ones you've returned may sometimes offer you gifts, shelter or lifelong gratitude. Hostile factions may be more lenient upon learning of your past profession as they recognise that your work is apolitical and necessary.
