Automutate (Alchemist Archetype)

Diminished Alchemy While an automutate is proficient with the creation of alchemical items and mutagens, their ability to create extracts is reduced.  The automutate has an effective class level for his extracts equal to his level -3, and may prepare a number of extracts per day equal to the number of spells per day that a ranger of their level would.

This ability modifies Alchemy.

Beast of Change The Automutate's mutagen is an especially potent, and strange, brew.  At first level, the automutate gains a pool of evolution points as an unchained eidolon of his level, and can select evolutions as if they were an unchained summoner's eidolon.  However, these evolutions are latent, and only apparent or usable while the automutate is under the effect of his mutagen. An automutate chooses their evolutions when they level up.

The automutate cannot select the following evolutions: basic magic, alignment smite, Channel Resistance, rider bond, shadow form, Undead Appearance, Celestial Appearance, Damage Reduction, Major Magic, Sacrifice and Ultimate Magic.  If an evolution requires a minimum summoner level, the automutate can uses his class level in place of his summoner levels to qualify.  An automutate may not use this ability to gain natural weapons in excess of those allowed to an eidolon of an unchained summoner of his level.

This ability replaces bombs.

In addition, the Automutate may select the following Discoveries:

Wild Change The automutate adds the following spells to his formulae book as extracts: evolution surge; evolution surge, greater; and evolution surge, lesser.  When he drinks these extracts they affect only himself and function only while under the effect of his mutagen The automutate treats these as extracts of the same level that they are summoner spells.

Fracturing Mind, Bestial Claws the automutate counts as possessing the feral mutagen discovery for the purpose of qualifying for the Master Chymist prestige class,  so long as they possess the bite and claws evolution. In addition a Master Chymist with this discovery count does not gain the Bomb Thrower ability, but adds their master chymist levels to their alchemist levels for the purpose of the BEast of Change ability.
