Gem Powers. Gemcutter can unlock some of the innate power hidden in gemstones. A gemstone’s power is decided by its type and value in the following ways:

• Damage Type. If a gemstone’s power is used to deal damage, the damage type is decided by the type of the gemstone (If a gemstone is not among the examples, it is decided by the GM):

  • Cold: Coral, Saphire, Tourmaline
  • Fire: Fire Opal,Garnet Ruby

  • Necrotic: Jet, Obsidian, Onyx
  • Poison: Jade, Serpentine
  • Psychic: Amethyst, Moonstone
  • Radiant: Diamond, Pearl
  • Thunder: Agate, Spinel
• Potency. A gemstone needs to be worth at least 100 gp for the Gemcutter to  be able to use its innate powers. Unless otherwise specified, using gems of higher values increases the potency of the gemstone’s effects in the following ways:
  • 500-999 gp: Rolls 1 extra die on all effects, DC is increased by 1 
  • 1000-2499 gp: Rolls 2 extra dice on all effects, DC is increased by 2 
  • 2500-4999 gp: Rolls 3 extra dice on all effects, DC is increased by 3 
  • 5000+ gp: Rolls 4 extra dice on all effects, DC is increased by 4

Engraved Infusions. You can spend 8 hours to enchant and carve a magical engraving into gemstone that is worth at least 100 gp, at the end of the process you must also succeed on a Dexterity (Jeweller’s Tools) or Intelligence (Jeweller’s Tools) check.
On a failed check, the gemstone’s value is decreased by 10% for each point of difference between the roll and the DC, destroying the gem if you fail by 10 or more.
The DC of the roll depends on the chosen engraving, and it increases the value of the gem by a specified amount:

• Explosive (DC 7 – 50 gp). The gem can be used as an improvised ranged weapon or as ammunition into a sling. On a hit, the target takes extra 2d10 damage and all creatures within 10 feet of them must make a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw, taking 2d10 damage of the gemstone’s type on a failure or half as much on a success.
  • On a hit, the gemstone has a 25% chance of being destroyed. 
• Protective (DC 10 – 150 gp). If a creature takes damage corresponding to the gemstone’s damage type, they can use their reaction to reduce the damage by 1d10.
  • When used, the gemstone has a 10% chance of losing its magical properties.
  • The gemstone must be held in at least one hand or embedded into a weapon or shield. 
• Offensive (DC 10 – 150 gp).  If embedded into a weapon as an action, it deals extra 1d4 damage of the gemstone’s type for 1 minute. The gemstone loses its magical powers once the duration expires. 
• Potent (DC 13 – 250 gp). When you force a creature to make a saving throw with your spells or class abilities, you can use your reaction to increase the DC by 1 (You must use this reaction before the target rolls).
  • When used, the gemstone has a 25% chance of losing its magical properties.
  • The gemstone must be held in at least one hand or embedded into a weapon, shield or a spellcasting focus. 
  • If you embed this gemstone into a magical item, it can also be used to increase the DC of its abilities.
• Lightweight (DC 15 – 350 gp). If embedded into an object or an item as an action its weight is halved for 1 hour. The gemstone loses its magical powers once the duration expires.
  • Does not work on objects or items that weigh more than 500 lb.
  • If this effect is used on armor, it loses any Strength requirements
  • If this effect is used on a weapon without the Heavy property, it gains the Light property, otherwise it only loses the Heavy property. 
  • Using gems of higher value increases the duration in the following ways:
    • 500-999 gp: 8 hours
    • 1000-2499 gp: 24 hours
    • 2500-4999 gp: 7 days
    • 5000+ gp: 30 days

Diamond Hands. As a bonus action, you can destroy a nonmagical gem worth at least 100 gp with the Gemcutter, using its magical properties to enhance your body and the Gemcutter in the following ways until the end of your next turn.
