Special Powers

An arbeiten is born without a cauldron. As they grow, they begin to make a cauldron for themselves, crafting it from a special humor they can produce supernaturally from their hands (imagine spinning a clay pot out of thin air). They have the ability to sense when they have a job to do.

While an arbeiten has his cauldron, he has enormous endurance. He can work for days without rest. Their cauldrons are very, very strong and can resist heat and pressure to incredible degrees. They have the normal halfling abilities of fear resistance & taunting. They are also fair at learning languages.
Weaknesses Without his cauldron, an arbeiten tires and dies.
Culture Arbeitens live in small communes where they focus on a single labor together. They bond over their work. They create, and they control what they create.
