This page is of questionable balance. Reason: A +4 ASI in a single stat, base size of Large without accounting for the problems this introduces in the game, both superior darkvision and tremorsense (without noting the range for either), a base walking speed of 40 feet, natively knows a cantrip better than eldritch blast with scaling that's absolutely off the charts, a better action surge, and what looks to be an infinitely scaling damage trait.

Bio Golem[edit]
A destructive race from an unknown place . . .
Physical Description[edit]
Bio Golems are large, they have three to four sets of arms, two digitrade legs, and a large tail with a sword like blade on it's tip(1d10 15ft range). They have a often take a powerful stance with good posture and keen steps. Unlike most races, Bio Golems are only born as Hermaphrodites, a hybrid gender. Due to being made up of a living metalic rock infused with flesh and veins, Bio Golems gain +8 AC, Armor only adds to this score, but slows the golem down (When wearing any armor, movement rolls have disadvantage). Bio golems have a main set of arms(A), a set of arms on top of their shoulders(B), and a ser of arms on the back of their shoulder blades(C), if the Bio Golem is large enough to have four arms, they grow another set of arms under their main arms(D). Bio Golems can use their other arms for more than one action per turn, but most roll will multiply Disadvantages, (B) Must roll for disadvantage (two rolls), (C) must roll (three rolls disadvantage), unless aiming behind, and (D) must roll (four rolls disadvantage).
History[edit]
Bio Golems are monsters that air from another dimension, they endure decades of torment, shaping their bodies to combat their tormenters . . .
Society[edit]
Bio golems live on their own for most of their lives on their own. Until one day they manage to escape, are summoned, or are teleported out after ten decades.
