Charlatan’s tools are used to create disguises and forge documents, allowing deception and trickery through clever craftsmanship.
- Associated Abilities: Dexterity, Charisma
- Components: This kit includes hair dyes, small props, cosmetics, selected articles of clothing, wax seals, gold and silver leaf, inks, parchments, and sculpting tools for fashioning wax seals or prosthetics.
- Special Uses:
- Create Disguise: In an hour (which can be done during a rest), you can create a disguise for yourself or someone else, including clothing and equipment, to appear as a different creature. While the disguise can alter height, weight, and features, it cannot hide true size or limb arrangement. It takes 1 minute to don the disguise, and only one disguise can be maintained at a time. A creature inspecting the disguise must succeed on an Intelligence (Investigation) contest against your Dexterity (Charlatan’s Tools) check to detect it.
- Forge Documents: In an hour (or during a rest), you can create a simple forged document of up to 5 pages, like a letter or permit. With GM approval, longer or more complex documents can be created over time. To spot the forgery, a creature must succeed on an Intelligence (Investigation) contest against your Dexterity (Charlatan’s Tools) check.
