\page ### Multi Classing Rules Since Scientific Ninja Tool Specialist is so different than the other classes it has so unique multiclassing rules.

When calculating when you gain jutsu you gain 2 jutsu for the first level and 1 jutsu per level afterwards, jutsu learned on levels from SNTS can only be cast by using them as prepard jutsu. This means that you have 2 seperate known jutsu tables, one for SNTS jutsu and 1 for all other classes.

If a feature gives you the ability to use a keyword you gain the ability to use that keyword book wide. For example you can use the keywords given by user of science to cast normal jutsu if you multiclass

Upon multiclassing you gain proficiency in crafting and in light and medium armor ### Favoring Rules The favoring of this clas might seem to not let many clan abilities work or to break things in the system, but an important thing to note is that mechinically all this class actually changes is that you have to prepare jutsu now. Everything else is fluff. ### things to note/Warnings DMs since all prepared jutsu gain the fuinjutsu keywords Uzamaki Scientific Ninja Tool Specialists are very strong, so you may want to consider removing that feature.

Since you can only prepare a very limited amount of jutsu, you must be very careful in what jutsu you pick ### Clarifications Since the term prepared Jutsu is a little vague, the base class might not do enough to full explain it's rules. **One**, you can only cast prepared Jutsu unless you multiclass. **Two**, prepared Jutsu cast chakra to cast and are not single use(unless you use the Overloaded scroll feature) **Three**, When you use your overloaded Scroll feature your prepared Jutsu amount is lowered by 1 and you can not prepare the jutsu you overloaded untill your next long rest. Which means that if you overload rasengan when you have 3 prepared jutsu, you know have 2 prepared jutsu and rasengan can not be one of them. **Four**, Your ninja gauntlet is almost indestructible, it can only be destroyed by **very** special means determined by your dm and can be recreated by means determined by your dm. **Fifth**, Normally you can not prepare Taijutsu or Bukijutsu. Depending on what subclass you pick you may prepare either Taijutsu or Bukijutsu. Also your Ninja guantlet is very hard to break, it won't break during combat and doesn't count as a weapon. ### Authors Words This is my take on a spell castor kinda like warlock that doesn't cast spellls normally. I used the wizards book as a lot of the basis of prepared jutsu and artificer as a inspiration generally. Overall I hoped to create a class that while limited in versatility, could still be able to be played in almost any style. I'm sure that thiers plenty of problems due to it being so different from the other classes, but I hope that it al least is fun to play. Also this was balanced without multiclassing at mind.
