-Class Name Pending (Suggestions): Delver, Explorer, Cartographer, Worker, Pragmatist, Artisan, Proletariat, Drudge, Laborer
+Class: Artisan
 
 Explorers, Delvers, and Cartographers in Veska all have two things in common. Short life expectancy and very, very stressful jobs. While the stress is hard to avoid, many of these previous non-combatants turn the tides of their dangerous lifestyle by picking up the nearest tool and using what their life experience has taught them, persevere, explore, and most importantly, survive.
 
 It's needless to say these types are overwhelmingly common in the pit, handy people that have come as far as they have from using whatever tools are at their disposal to stay alive. Some are strong, some are swift and steady, others are just plain courageous, smart, or lucky. Either way, don't underestimate them, even a blue collar worker can take a life if backed into a corner!

 (Select one of three: Pragmatic, Stoic, Headstrong)
 
 - Pragmatics rely on quick wit and quicker reflexes. They're efficient at weaponizing the tools they have, using improvised weapons, and implementing simple and effective tactics. Give this man some resources and time and he'll craft your undoing out of it. They tend to value their intellect and dexterity the most.
 
 - Stoics are tough and rugged, if you attack them they'll probably pick up the heaviest tool they can find and hit you with it. They get by from enduring their hardships and have become excellent at minimizing the harm done to them during accidents or attacks, and use their great stamina and vitality to get through backbreaking (or face crushing) labor. They tend to value their Fortitude and Strength.
 
 - Headstrongs have seen it all, they don't scare easy and they won't back off. Often people who are tired of the mundane or have little to lose anyway, trying to make them flinch will get you punched in the face, their built up expertise from their life experiences will keep them ready for everything. They value their wisdom or Charisma above all else.
 
- - Tool Mastery: A worker is nothing without their tools, anything from pickaxes to shovels to the almighty iron skillet can be turned into a deadly weapon with enough heft and skill. In the right hands these tools function practically like martial weapons! (No weapon penalty, bonus to using said tools for their intended purpose)
+
 Level 1:
--Prag: Other improvised and thrown weapons have no penalty either!
+
--Sto:  Tool weapons hit harder if sufficiently large (two-handable, heavier than 4 - 5 lbs), and can be swung without tiring the user.

The Artisan treats these common tools as martial weapons, taking no penalty when using them, and gaining a +2 bonus when using them for their intended purpose.
--Head: Can use their wisdom bonus to effect their chance of landing a hit in place of another ability mod (IE Trading Wis for dex/str).
+
 -Pragmatics: Pragmatics take no penalty to using improvised weapons in general. If they can smash your head with it, they can use it. They gain proper scaling with the improvised weapons as well. (Normal penalty for improvised weaponry is -4)
 
-- Physical Endurance: The worker's body toughens up to handle the workload!
+-Stoic: Stoics hit much harder with heavy tool weapons(two handed weapons that weight 4-5 pounds), gaining a +2 bonus when landing their attacks for the sake of increasing their damage.

+
