Features

Living Construct:

Unlike other constructs, a living construct has a Constitution score.

Unlike other constructs, a living construct does not have low-light vision or darkvision.

Unlike other constructs, a living construct is not immune to mind-affecting spells and abilities.

Immunity to poison, sleep effects, paralysis, disease, nausea, fatigue, exhaustion, effects that cause the sickened condition, and energy drain.

A living construct cannot heal lethal damage naturally.

Unlike other constructs, living construct are subject to critical hits, nonlethal damage, stunning, ability damage, ability drain, and death effects or necromancy effects.

As living constructs, living construct can be affected by spells that target living creatures as well as by those that target constructs. Damage dealt to a living construct can be healed by a cure light wounds spell or a repair light damage spell, for example, and a living construct is vulnerable to disable construct and harm. However, spells from the healing subschool and supernatural abilities that cure hit point damage or ability damage provide only half their normal effect to a living construct.

The unusual physical construction of living construct makes them vulnerable to certain spells and effects that normally don't affect living creatures. A living construct takes damage from heat metal and chill metal as if he were wearing metal armor. Likewise, a living construct is affected by repel metal or stone as if he were wearing metal armor. A living construct is repelled by repel wood. The iron in the body of a living construct makes him vulnerable to rusting grasp. The creature takes 2d6 points of damage from the spell. A living construct takes the same damage from a rust monster's touch. Spells such as stone to flesh, stone shape, warp wood, and wood shape affect objects only, and thus cannot be used on the stone and wood parts of a living construct.

A living construct responds slightly differently from other living creatures when reduced to critical hitpoint numbers. When disabled and dying he actually uses no hitpoints.

As a living construct, a living construct can be raised or resurrected.

A living construct does not need to eat, sleep, or breathe, but he can still benefit from the effects of consumable spells and magic items such as hero's feast or potions.

Although living constructs do not need to sleep, a living construct must rest for 8 hours before preparing spells or refreshing similar abilities.

All applications of the Heal skill while used on a living construct are replaced with an appropriate Craft skill.

Steam Powered Warforged

Attributes: +2 Strength, -2 Wisdom

Archetypical: The Steam Powered Warforged does never choose an archetype.

Steam Powered: At the start of an encounter, the warforged can overdrive his steam-engine to receive additional power. Heating the steam engine is a free action that is done during the warforgeds turn.

Overdrive: While overdriving the warforged receives a bonus to strength and damage dealt by spells. With each archetype power this bonus increases by 2. Also, each round overdriving the warforged the warforged receives one heat stack up to 2+1 per level. When he is at the maximum number of heat stacks, the steam powered warforged stops overdrive at the end of his turn and explodes dealing 1d6 points of fire damage per stack to everyone within 3m of him, including himself. The warforged cannot exceed his maximum number of heat-stacks. A strength based reflex save halves the damage for everyone except the warforged.

The warforged can reduce the heat stacks by releasing steam as a standard action. The warforged may choose to end the overdrive if the heat stack is empty.

Release Steam: The Warforged creates a 3m steam cone that deals 1d6 points of fire damage per heat stack + the warforgeds strength modifier, a strength based reflex save halves the damage. The heat-stacks are removed from the warforged.

Lesser Racial Power: While overdriving the warforged may specify the type of action/actions he is doing in his next turn iff it is one of the following (cast a specific spell, do a full-attack action, do a charge, do a standard action attack). Swift, move and immediate actions may be chosen on the fly. If he does so and the action is correct, he receives +2 on attack rolls and save DC.

Specifying the action, right or wrong creates an additional heat stack.

Moderate Racial Power: After specifying the action successfully twice in a row the warforged receives an additional partial action during his turn. If he uses this partial action he creates another heat stack. This ability might give a well planned warforged the chance to receive an additional action every turn. However, all actions must be planned.

Greater Racial Power: You receive another use for your capstone power:

Meltdown: The warforged completely loses control over his heat. His moderate racial power is turned off during his turn and he may not use release steam. His heat stacks rise their maximum. Finally, receives another full-round action during his turn.
