If you hear the clangs of tools and crackles of arcane energy then you have stepped foot in an Artificers' laboratory. Artificers are wizards who combine arcane ability with a trade to create novel arcane objects or creatures. Artificers are scholars of engineering and magic. They are naturally inquisitive and endlessly creative. Each artificer specialized in one type of material to manipulate and infuse with their arcane energy:

• Alchemists specialize in the manipulations of liquids into potions of various types
• Enchanters infuse magic into weapons, armor and other objects
• Constructors use magic to animate mechanical beings of various size

Artificers will set up a laboratory of their own with the tools and material necessary for their craft and which reflect their particular interests and personality.

Recharge Items

Starting at 6th level, you can spend an hour to restore expended charges to any magical item that holds them by expending spell slots of equal or greater total level to the number of charges restored. Objects that are single use, or that contain only a single charge cannot be restored in this way. You must be holding the item for the 1 hour required to use this feature.

Specialty Improvement

At 6th level, you improve skills and gain an additional ability based on your specialty.

Unstable Alchemy

You can spend 1 minute to infuse a vial of water with any spell you can cast with a casting time of 1 action and that does not require concentration. Infusing the vial requires expending a spell slot and material components as normal and causes the vial to glow and pulse with energy. As an action, the vial can be used by any creature to cast the infused spell on themselves or a willing creature/object within 5ft of them using your spell DC. The magic will dissipate from the vial after 1 hour.

Unstable Construction

Your constructs can use an action to self destruct. When they self destruction each creature within 10 ft of the construct must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell DC. On a failed save they take 1d8 lighting and 1d8 force damage for each level of the spell used to power the construct, or half as much damage on a success.

Alternatively, you can quick-fix one of your constructs as a bonus action on your turn by touching your construct and expending a spell slot of 1st level or higher, cause it to regain hit points equal to 2d8+your intelligence modifier which increases by 2d8 for each level of the spell slot above 1st.

Unstable Enchanting

You can spend 1 minute to temporarily enchant an object with a spell you can cast that targets a single creature and has a duration of at least 1 minute. Enchanting the object requires expending a spell slot as normal and causes the object to glow and pulse with energy. A creature that is holding the object can use an action to concentrate on the object (as if concentrating on a spell) to activate the spell causing it to target themselves, the spell effect persists as long as the creature continues to hold and concentrate on the object.

Objects enchanted in this way are unstable, they can only be enchanted with one spell at a time and the magic will fade after 1 hour ending its effect on any creature concentrating on it. You can have a maximum number of objects enchanted in this way equal to your Intelligence modifier.
