Chart Advantageous Courses through Turmoil

Cartographers are the premier navigators and reconnaissance agents. Using their creations, Cartographers can highlight threats, safeguard allies, and carve portals to distant locations.

Tools of the Trade

You gain the following benefits.

Tool Proficiency

You gain proficiency with Calligrapher's Supplies and Cartographer's Tools. If you already have one of these proficiencies, you gain proficiency with one other type of Artisan's Tools of your choice (or with two other types if you have both).

Scroll Crafting

When you scribe a Spell Scroll using the crafting rules in the Player's Handbook, the amount of time required to craft it is halved.

Cartographer Spells

When you reach an Artificer level specified in the Cartographer Spells table, you thereafter always have the listed spells prepared.

Adventurer's Atlas

Whenever you finish a Long Rest while holding Cartographer's Tools, you can use that tool to create a set of magical maps by touching at least two creatures (one of whom can be yourself), up to a maximum number of creatures equal to 1 plus your Intelligence modifier (minimum of two creatures). Each target receives a magical map, which constantly updates to show the relative position of all the map holders but is illegible to all others. The maps last until you die or until you use this feature again, at which point any existing maps created by this feature immediately vanish.

While carrying the map, a target gains the following benefits.

Awareness

The target adds 1d4 to its Initiative rolls.

Positioning

The target knows the location of all other map holders that are on the same plane of existence as itself. When casting a spell or creating another effect that requires being able to see the effect's target, a map holder can target another map holder regardless of sight or cover, so long as the other map holder is still within the effect's range.

Mapping Magic

You gain the following benefits.

Illuminated Cartography

You can cast Faerie Fire without expending a spell slot, outlining the affected creatures as if in ink. You can do so a number of times equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.

Portal Jump

On your turn, you can spend an amount of movement equal to half your Speed (round down) to teleport to an unoccupied space you can see within 10 feet of yourself or within 5 feet of a creature that is within 30 feet of you and holding one of your Adventurer's Atlas maps. You can't use this benefit if your Speed is 0.
