At seventeen years of age, Renan Saneris was still waiting for a talent to come up. While everyone around him got a Class and could move on with their life, he was still waiting for Fate to finally tell him what would become of him. He tried his hand at Smithing, Sword Fighting, or even at being an Artisan, but he never got much result for his efforts.

One look at his Aetheric Record was generally enough to humble him as he had no skill beyond the basic level. He had no skill trees, no saving experience, no class features.

One day, however, when he’s messing around in his father’s forge, etching small symbols into a blade as a gift for Yana, his best friend, the glyphs start glowing and awake something in him.

New Class Acquired! Artificer: Level One

Artificer? What in the void was that? He had never heard of such a thing, and no one around him seems to have a clue either. Still, Renan is determined to find out how it all works, so he can help the community with his new powers.

But when strange shadows attack his village and he barely manages to chase them away with one of his new creations, he decides to join a group of Adventurers to investigate the threat and make sure everyone will be safe. And in the process, he will learn that his mysterious Class may be more than meets the eye.

Renan thought that getting a Class would be an end in itself, but it turns out it’s only just the beginning. The beginning of the Artificer’s Chronicles!
