Flesh Sculptor

The flesh sculptor is a common creature in royal courts and the lowest alehouses alike. A subsect of artificers dedicated to empirical manipulation of the flesh using magic, flesh sculptors differ from regular artificers in subject matter, but often not mindset. A flesh sculptor is always in demand, whether performing elaborate plastic surgery for the rich or reattaching the fingers of a lumberjack. Flesh sculptors hold to no particular organisation or alignment.

Level 3: Twist Face

Level 3: Twist Face

You learn to use your skills to alter the appearance of a humanoid. You gain Expertise in Medicine. Given 8 hours and your tinker's tools, you can alter the facial appearance of a creature to a nearly unlimited extent, including disguising as other individuals who you have seen the face of for more than ten minutes without obscuration (an image or illusion can also work at DM's discretion). Creatures attempting to discern the true identity of the creature through facial inspection must make an Intelligence(Insight) or Wisdom(Perception) check against your passive Medicine. If the check fails, the deception is successful. 

In addition, your abilities allow you to sculpt flesh for good or ill in combat. Once per long rest and per turn, you can use a free action to heal a creature you touch for an amount of HP equal to your level+ your Intelligence(Medicine) bonus. Alternatively, you can use a free action to make an attack roll against one enemy within range. On a hit, they take 1 Slashing damage and become Frightened of you. While Frightened in this way, the creature rolls a Charisma saving throw against your spell save DC at the start of each of their turns. On a success, the creature is no longer Frightened. You gain the ability to Sculpt Flesh in combat an additional time per long rest at level 7, 11 and 17.

6. Replaced skin (requires level 10). 

You fully remove and transplant the skin of an enemy onto your target. It gains all skin related traits (EG slippery) and identical base natural armour to the creature. However, it also gains disadvantage on Wisdom(Perception) checks depending on touch.

7. Flurry Of Limbs (requires level 10). 

You graft one or more additional limbs with full violent potential to your target's spine. Choose one to three attacks of the dissected dead target that are performed by limbs. Whenever it performs an opportunity attack, these additional limbs also make attacks, using their original to hit and damage bonuses. However, all armour it wears must be tailored to you at an additional cost of 1d10 days and 1d100 percent of its original value.

8. Winged (requires level 15).
