Feruchemy

At 1st level, you gain the ability to store attributes on metals that are on your person, called metalminds. As a bonus action on your turn, you can tap a metalmind of your choosing and continue to tap any metalmind that you tapped during your last turn, provided you have at least 1 charge for that metalmind. You may tap a number of metalminds up to your intelligence modifier at once. Tapping a metalmind reduces the charge for your metalmind by 1 and casts the associated spell with that metal from the Feruchmist spell list below. When you complete a short rest you regain a number of charges equal to your level in this class plus your intelligence modifier, distributed among your metalminds as you choose up to their maximum charge. Your metalminds each regain up to 8 expended charges when you complete a long rest up to their maximum charge.

While you are storing into your metalmind, the DM may, at their discretion require you to make certain skill checks or saving throws with disadvantage. (eg. perception checks when storing tin, strength saving throws when storing pewter)

Greater Metalmind

Starting at 1st level, you have spent time storing a large amount of feruchemical power in a metalmind. Choose one metalmind, you gain a large metalmind such as an arm bracer or leg bracer, this metalmind can exceed your usual maximum charge by 50 charges however you are still only able to tap a number of charges equal to the maximum charge for your level. This metalmind does not count towards the maximum number of metalminds you can have equipped.

Surging

Starting at 3rd level, you gain the ability to surge a feruchemical power from any metalmind on your person. As an action on your turn, you can surge a metalmind, providing a burst of additional benefit at the cost of consuming multiple charges. See the Surging section of the appropriate spell in the Feruchemist spells list for the produced effect.

Scholarly Insight

Starting at 6th level, you become proficient in History, Religion and Arcana. If you were already proficient in one of these skills you may add your proficiency bonus twice to any skill checks for that skill.
