Animistic Tools, Mk 2

Hybrid

People often have superstitions regarding whether objects have a spirit or intelligence, and animistic tools were made with such beliefs in mind. Each of these tool kits has the power to communicate a user’s intentions to inanimate objects. Up to twice per day, when you use animistic tools with the appropriate skill and you fail a check, you can use the tool’s magic to reroll the check and take the higher result. In addition, as a move action, you can tap or bang a tool from the kit on a broken object, causing the object to ignore the penalties of being broken for 10 minutes. An item can benefit from animistic tools in this way only once per day, causing some engineers to joke that no one likes percussive maintenance.
