Just verifying. Chitkree should now be able to use a shield, on a primary arm, and still dual wield shortswords with his secondary arms.
[ +- ] Secondary Arms
You have two slightly smaller secondary arms below your primary pair of arms. The secondary arms can manipulate an object, open or close a door or container, pick up or set down a Tiny object, or wield a weapon that has the light property.
Additional crafting questions
How long would it take Chitkree to brew a potion of healing? (Using Herbalist tools)
How much would the supplies to do so cost?
I am assuming I can't look around and just gather them. Or can I leave town and do that nearby?
Crafting a potion of healing requires:
Access to the healing spell Cure Wounds
The knowledge of how to create a potion (a formula or schematic)
50gp worth of materials
2 days worth of uninterrupted crafting time

Can't the Scribes do this on the fly all the time?
What I requested would be a variant spell that always does lightning damage.
They can do it temporarily yeah, provided they have two spells of the same level with different damage types. I agree with you MaJunior on not handing out feats for free (that was for instance my point behind not allowing flanking), but generally don’t mind changing it permanently, provided it’s a small spell and it makes sense. Speaking of that though, Produce Flame, I would think that it would lose some of its lighting properties by being made out of lightning, would it not?
