Dabble Cauldrons — Legacy Witch Art
Cauldrons is a legacy Witch Art centred on magical brewing, alchemy, transformation and the cauldron as a ritual focus. It belongs to the preserved d20 Dabble system.
Choose Cauldrons If…
- You want brewing, transformation and ritual preparation to define your Witch.
- You enjoy potions, ingredients and magic that can be prepared before danger starts.
- You want the cauldron to be a genuine magical tool rather than decorative scenery.
What it feels like to play: Cauldrons suits a player who likes preparation. The Witch’s magic should smell of smoke, herbs and strange ingredients long before the first spell is cast.
Legacy rules note
This Art uses the preserved d20 Witch rules. Its original prerequisites and spell progression remain below; other editions need a deliberate conversion.
Cauldron-workers use brewing, heat and transformation as magical techniques. The original d20 write-up restricts the Art to non-chaotic Witches; campaigns may instead tie access to alchemical discipline, coven training or ritual practice.
Power: Witch’s Brew: The witch incurs only 75% of the normal costs associated with the Brew Potion feat and receives a +2 bonus on all Craft (alchemy) checks. All Cauldrons spells require a small pot or cauldron as a material component.
