The Artificer's Gadgets
A Look at Tags and What They Mean
The Artifier's Gadget Belt move grants them a host of cool gadgets, made by slamming three words together and then adding a tag. Some of the tags listed are
ordinary - Piercing 2 and Forceful are covered by the Dungeon World core rules. The others... less so. +2 Armor vs. ____ isn't too hard, but what's appropriate
to put in the blank? What does Elemental really mean? What kinds of Alternate Movements are okay? This page has been added to answer those questions.
+2 Armor Vs ___
The +2 Armor Vs ___ Gadget requires you to specific what it protects against - they don't provide universal armor. As defensive gadgets, +2 Armor Vs ___
Gadgets are rarely weapons, although they can be. If it is, it will rarely have a range farther than Hand. You do not have to pick a protection from the list below.
These are provided as a guideline.
A +2 Armor Vs. Fire Gadget is obvious - it protects you from fire damage. Magic fire, being set on fire, walking through a really hot room; damage from
those is reduced by 2. Other elements you could pick: Cold, Electric, Chemicals, Ghosts. Possible Gadgets: Pyromatic Defuser Glove, Alchemic Reversal Suit.
A +2 Armor Vs. Ammo Gadget protects you from most ranged attacks - arrows, Thrown weapons, and anything else that would use Ammo. It will protect
you from small arms fire, but not giant boulders or collapsing ceilings. Possible Gadgets: Electrical Shielding Golem, Magnetic Field Belt
A +2 Armor Vs. Environment Gadget won't protect you from an ax or other weapon, but it will protect you from a variety of dangers. This gadget will
cushion falls, soften falling rubble, and help you cross burning acid. Possible Gadgets: Ectoplasmic Amplification Suit, Clockwork Defuser Golem.
Elemental (___)
The Elemental (___) Gadget is a weapon, first and foremost. If you're putting this tag on a Gadget, you intend to hurt people with it. The Elemental keyword
is what gives your Gadget elemental properties - without this, your Pyromatic Beam Cannon doesn't set things on fire. These are the same Elemental tags that
The Mage has access to. You do not have to take one of the elements listed here, but if you use a different element, be sure to go over what that element fully
entails with your GM.
An Elemental (Fire) Gadget burns things. Enemies hit by it catch fire, you can use it to destroy paper and wood, start a campfire, or destroy a building, given
enough time. Possible Gadgets: Pyromatic Beam Cannon, Pyromatic Explosion Glove.
An Elemental (Ice) Gadget freezes things. Enemies hit by it are immobilized, you can use it to freeze water, put out fires, or create slippery floors. Possible
Gadgets: Cryogenic Explosion Flasks, Cryogenic Emitter Wand.
An Elemental (Electric) Gadget shocks things. Enemies hit by it are stunned, you can use it to blast things away, create light, and power ancient technology.
Possible Gadgets: Electrical Amplification Glove, Electrical Projector Device.
