Crystalline Warforged

Ability Score Increase +2 Con, +1 Ability of choice
Size Medium
Speed 30ft

Age

Crystalline Warforged do not age. They can be disassembled, which disables them, but can be put back together if all parts are reconnected.  

Ability Score Increase

Your Constitution score increases by 2, and one attribute of choice increases by 1.  

Size

Crystalline Warforged usually measure between 1,80m and 2,4m and weigh as much as 150kgs. Your size is Medium.  

Speed

Your base walking speed is 30 feet.  

Constructed Resilience

You were created to have remarkable fortitude, represented by the following benefits:
You have advantage on saving throws against being poisoned, and you have resistance to poison damage.
You don’t need to eat, drink, or breathe.
You are immune to disease.
You don’t need to sleep, and magic can’t put you to sleep.
 

Sentry’s Rest

When you take a long rest, you must spend at least six hours in an inactive, motionless state, rather than sleeping. In this state, you appear inert, but it doesn’t render you unconscious, and you can see and hear as normal.  

Integrated Protection

Your body has built-in defensive layers, which can be enhanced with armor:
You gain a +1 bonus to Armor Class.
You can don only armor with which you have proficiency. To don armor, you must incorporate it into your body over the course of 1 hour, during which you remain in contact with the armor. To doff armor, you must spend 1 hour removing it. You can rest while donning or doffing armor in this way.
While you live, your armor can’t be removed from your body against your will.
 

Telepathy

Possessing no voice boxes or any resemblance of biologic physiology, Crystalline Warforged are mute. However, they can communicate telepathically with any creature able to understand a language with relative ease.
Any humanoid creature hears a voice in their head in their native language.
  Creatures with underdeveloped languages or cultures are communicated with by means of concepts and emotions.
  The warforged can create a bond between them and any living creature by spending an hour near them. Afterwards, for the next 24 hours, the warforged can communicate concepts and emotions to the bonded target regardless of distance (as long as they reside in the same plane of existence).
  Only five bonds can be established at a time.
 

Caregiver Protocol

Warforged, as they are in this world, were largely created by powerful mages to be caretakers and wardens for the crystal towers of the aspects. As such, they were designed with features that allow them to protect and sustain others:
Once per short rest, warforged can draw upon the mana surrounding them and use an action to cast Mass Healing Word without expending a spell slot. This action cannot be augmented.
  If an adjacent ally is hit by a melee or ranged attack, you can use your reaction to reduce the damage they take. Roll a D20: If the result is 14 or less, the target takes half damage(rounded down). If the result is 15 or more, your ally receives no damage. If the target is subject to a multi-attack, the overall damage can only be halved, regardless of result.
