烟火技师（Firework Technician）在空中倾泻的绚烂光芒、在空中摇曳的花朵、雷鸣般的响声、嘶嘶作响的爆裂声、刺耳尖锐的声响——你的造物经常带来这样的景象。你懂得如何完美地将声响与光效组合并创造出烟火表演，让孩子与成人感到惊艳、让伙伴感到慰藉、甚至还能迷惑你的敌人。
作为烟火技师，你可能是一名巡游的流浪者，在一个个城镇间漫游，并在此期间发展出属于自己的技术。在此情况下，你会在旅途中谋生，向镇民们兜售烟火，根据委托的要求和对方支付的酬金来安排公共表演，甚至为那些富有或是足够有意思的人进行定制焰火表演。
换句话说，你也可能是天夏（Tian Xia）或乌笃剌（Vudra）的某间知名烟火作坊的一份子，靠着团队合作来完全你的各种烟火和表演。你希望给烟火技术带来下一代的伟大革新，经常把自己的研究与现场演示中记录的笔记带给同一家作坊中受人尊敬的同事，向他们征求关于你的下个好点子的意见。
描述你的烟火表演（DESCRIBING YOUR FIREWORKS DISPLAY）
作为烟火技师，你的角色的特殊能力所产生的的确切视觉效果对你来说可能相当重要。即便有两名来自同一间烟火作坊的烟火技师，并且使用完全相同的技巧来演绎，也无法带来两场完全一致的烟火表演。实际上，当你使用来自烟火技师变体的专长时，很可能在你每次修补、完善和改进技术时，都会让每次表演结果带来些许变化。即便如此，你在自己的每个烟火技师专长中应该都有几个更喜欢表现的主题。举例来说，你的龙咳表演（Coughing Dragon Display）可能会呈现出一条蜿蜒蛇行的帝龙姿态，由它吐出一条闪亮的轨迹。它也可能就是一串连续的几何图形、一个盘旋着的神秘御衡者留下对称形状的尾迹、一颗开花巨木在空中的图像、或者任何你能想象到的其他事物。为了帮助与你一同游戏的其他玩家想象你的角色所做的事情，你可以提出一段与你最爱的表演相关的描述或者甚至画一张图来进行展示。
烟火技师入门（Firework Technician Dedication） 专长 2[罕见] [变体] [入门]先决条件 手艺（Crafting）的熟练度为受训
你懂得了一些用黑火药、金属与纸张制造声响与火光的秘招。你很有可能是在天夏（Tian Xia）的烟火作坊（fireworks house）或者乌笃剌（Vudra）的烟火公司（fireworks company）中经过了正规培训才获得了这些知识，当然你也可能是从一艘沉船内的秘密藏匿处找到的古卷中无师自通了烟火技艺。
你的烟火学识（Fireworks Lore）的熟练度提升至受训（trained），若你已经在此学识上受训，则提升至专家（expert）。你获得制作炼金物品（Alchemical Crafting）专长，数值等同于你的等级的灌注试剂（Infused Reagents），外加高阶炼金术（Advanced Alchemy；这使得你可以在每日准备期间制作炼金物品，且无需支付正常造物的开销或时间）。你只能使用灌注试剂来制作烟火（fireworks）、发射一场烟火表演（Launch a Fireworks Display）以及使用本变体的其他专长（见后文）。你的高阶炼金术等级为1级。
关于制作炼金物品（Alchemical Crafting）的规则位于核心手册的258页（此页码对应的是专长章节，但手艺制作物品应当位于244页技能一章中，故此处超链接为技能章节），
而关于灌注试剂以及高阶炼金术的规则则刊载于核心手册的72页（即炼金术士职业一节）。若你从其他来源获得了灌注试剂，则使用数值最高的灌注试剂来判断你的试剂数量，而非将两者合并计算。
你还可以使用灌注试剂来创造特殊烟火表演，由此展现出独特的效果来让旁观者惊叹，甚至能在战斗中获得优势。你获得发射烟火表演（Launch Fireworks Display）动作，并且习得一些基础表演，此外你还可以通过其他烟火技师专长来学会额外更加复杂的表演。任何表演的DC均等同于你的职业DC或者法术DC，以较高者为准。
发射烟火表演（Launch Fireworks Display）

Firework Technician
The brilliant display of cascading lights and flickering aerial flowers, the thunderous boom, the sizzling crackle, and piercing screech—these are the stock and trade of your craft. You know how to perfectly pair light and sound to create fireworks displays that can amaze children and adults, comfort friends, and even confound your foes.
As a fireworks technician, you might be an itinerant wanderer, roaming from town to town and developing your craft on your own. In that case, you make a living on the road, selling fireworks to the townsfolk, setting up public displays upon request and receipt of payment, and even tailoring individualized performances to those wealthy or interesting enough to be worthy of receiving their own private show.
On the other hand, you might be part of an established fireworks house from Tian Xia or Vudra and rely on teamwork to perfect your various formulas and displays. Hoping to produce the next great innovation in fireworks technology, you often send back the notes from your studies and field demonstrations to esteemed colleagues from your fireworks house, seeking their opinions on your next big idea.
DESCRIBING YOUR FIREWORKS DISPLAY
As a firework technician, the exact visuals of your character’s special abilities might matter significantly to you. No two firework technicians use exactly the same fireworks display, even if they come from the same fireworks house and both use the same feat to generate the display. In fact, it’s likely that when you use a feat from the firework technician archetype, the resulting display remains a bit different each time as you tinker, perfect, and refine your technique. Even so, you probably have a few themes that you prefer for each of your firework technician feats. For instance, your Coughing Dragon Display might appear in the sinuous serpentine shape of a literal imperial dragon, coughing out glittering trails. It might also resemble a simple series of geometric shapes, an enigmatic spiraling aeon trailing off in a shape with radial symmetry, a pattern shaped like a tree blossoming with flowers in the sky, or anything else you can imagine. To help your fellow players visualize what your character is doing, you might come up with some go-to descriptions or draw art depicting some of your favorite displays.
FIREWORK TECHNICIAN DEDICATION FEAT 2
UNCOMMON ARCHETYPE DEDICATION
Prerequisites trained in Crafting
You’ve learned the secrets of making fire and sound bloom using black powder, metals, and paper. You most likely came by this knowledge through formal training with a fireworks house in Tian Xia or a fireworks company from Vudra, though perhaps you mastered fireworks completely by yourself after finding a secret stash in an old shipwreck.
You become trained in Fireworks Lore or become an expert if you were already trained in it. You gain the Alchemical Crafting feat, a pool of infused reagents equal to your level, and advanced alchemy (allowing you to make alchemical items during your daily preparations without the normal cost or time expenditure). You can use your infused reagents only to make fireworks, Launch a Fireworks Display, and use other feats from this archetype (see below). Your advanced alchemy level is 1. The rules for these are in the Alchemical Crafting section on page 258 of the Core Rulebook, and rules for infused reagents and advanced alchemy are on page 72. If you gain infused reagents from more than one source, you use the highest number of reagents to determine your pool rather than adding them together.
You can also create special fireworks displays using your infused reagents, designed to create distinctive effects you can use to make onlookers marvel and even to gain an advantage in combat. You gain the Launch Fireworks Display action and learn some basic displays, and you can learn additional, more complex displays through other firework technician feats. The DC for any display is equal to your class DC or spell DC, whichever is higher.
Launch Fireworks Display[one-action] to [three-actions] (see below); (manipulate); Cost 1 or more batches of infused reagents; Requirements You have a free hand; Effect You set off a fireworks display. You can launch a normal firework to simply create a visual or audible signal within 20 feet or you can choose one of the following special effects. A firework display has the listed traits, and if it costs more than 1 batch of infused reagents, it is noted in its Cost entry.
Comet [one-action] (visual) You shoot a streak of shining light in a 60-foot line. All spaces in that line are lit with bright light until the start of your next turn. As part of this action, you can also Point Out a single creature in the line, and your allies do not need to hear or understand you.
Flower [one-action] (visual) You ignite a ring of sparks, creating a shape that might be reminiscent of a flower blooming in the sky. Each enemy with 20 feet of you must attempt a Fortitude save. On a failure, the enemy is dazzled for 1 round, and on a critical failure they are dazzled for 2 rounds.
Salute[one-action] (auditory) You create a startling bang or whistle, adding an auditory component to your fireworks display. When you launch a salute display, you can choose a confused or fascinated ally within 60 feet. If the ally you chose is fascinated, the noise is so violent that it acts as a hostile effect for the purpose of their fascinated condition (though it has no negative repercussions) automatically ending most applications of the fascinated condition. If they’re confused, the sound is so loud and violent that it might snap the ally out of confusion. They can immediately attempt the flat check to remove the confused condition which normally occurs when a creature is damaged. If the confused condition has special rules that remove the flat check when taking damage or make the flat check harder, those rules also apply to the salute.
Special You can’t select another dedication feat until you’ve gained two other feats from the fireworks technician archetype.
COUGHING DRAGON DISPLAY FEAT 4
ARCHETYPE
Prerequisites Firework Technician Dedication
This display emits a cascade of loud bangs or glittering trails. While you initially designed the display to captivate your audience’s attention, it turns out to have a surprisingly effective use in combat, suppressing auditory or visual effects behind your magnificent display. You gain the Coughing Dragon fireworks display.
Coughing Dragon [two-actions] Cost 2 batches of infused reagents; Effect Choose either auditory or visual effects. The display gains that trait, and you attempt to counteract one or more effects within 60 feet that have this trait. On a success, the effect is suppressed until the start of your next turn, rather than ending entirely. Use your Fireworks Lore modifier as your counteract modifier, and your counteract level is equal to half your advanced alchemy level (rounded up). A coughing dragon costs 2 batches of infused reagents rather than 1, but you can increase the cost to 3 batches and spend an additional action to create an even bigger coughing dragon display that attempts to counteract both auditory and visual effects at the same time.
EXPERT FIREWORKS CRAFTER FEAT 6
ARCHETYPE
Prerequisites Firework Technician Dedication, expert in Crafting
You’re particularly adept at crafting fireworks, allowing you to create much more powerful fireworks than you otherwise could. Your advanced alchemy level for fireworks increases to your level – 3.
JUMPING JENNY DISPLAY FEAT 8
ARCHETYPE
Prerequisites Firework Technician Dedication
This multi-sequence rocket blasts confetti at a series of altitudes. While the design is intended to delight children of all ages, you’ve found it has an unexpected side effect of confounding enemy fliers. You gain the Jumping Jenny fireworks display.
Jumping Jenny [one-action] Cost 2 batches of infused reagents; Effect Target a flying creature within 60 feet. Until the start of your next turn, each time that creature attempts to Fly, they must succeed at an Acrobatics check to Maneuver in Flight against the DC of your fireworks display, or the Fly action is disrupted. If all the creature’s attempts to Fly are disrupted, at the end of its turn, it falls harmlessly to the ground below. A jumping jenny costs 2 batches of infused reagents, rather than 1.
GOBLIN JUBILEE DISPLAY FEAT 10
ARCHETYPE
Prerequisites Firework Technician Dedication
Flames and explosions sear the air in a riot of color and devastation that rivals that wrought by even the wildest goblin party. The display is both so beautiful and chaotic that, while mesmerizing, it poses a significant risk to the physical health, sight, and hearing of anyone who gets too close. You gain the Goblin Jubilee fireworks display.
Goblin Jubilee[three-actions] (fire, sonic, visual) Cost 3 batches of infused reagents; Effect Chaos fills a 20-foot burst within 120 feet. All creatures in the area takes 3d6 fire damage and 3d6 sonic damage and must attempt a Fortitude save. A goblin jubilee display costs 3 batches of infused reagents, rather than 1.
Critical Success The creature is unaffected.
Success The creature is dazzled and deafened until the end of its next turn and takes half damage.
Failure The creature is dazzled and deafened for 1 minute and takes full damage.
Critical Failure The creature is blinded for 1 round, dazzled and deafened for 1 minute, and takes double damage.
BANSHEE CRY DISPLAY FEAT 12
ARCHETYPE
Prerequisites Firework Technician Dedication
You’ve learned how to pull off a sudden noisemaker at just the right moment in your display, a technique that can disrupt precise wording. You gain the Banshee Cry fireworks display.
Banshee Cry [reaction] Trigger A creature within 30 feet Casts a Spell that has a verbal component or Activates an Item using a command Activation; Effect You set off a firework to explode with a loud screech near the creature. The creature must attempt a Will save.
Success The creature is unaffected.
Failure The creature must use an additional action on the triggering action or activity, or it’s disrupted.
Critical Failure The triggering action is disrupted.
