Possessed Toy (Pathfinder Race)

Posessed Toys

Sourced from Monster Girl Encyclopedia [1]

Once a spirit wandering the earth or from the land of the dead; these souls are now bound to toys be it from someone binding them to the toy or a bond from a past life. Are you the spirit of a child now bound to a toy they once loved or have come to love? Are they the spirit of an adventurer who met an untimely fate? Whatever you were, for some reason you've come to be bound to a child's plaything.

Physical Description

Rags, Wood, Clay, or Porcelain; The toy you possessed is your appearance to those who still live. Toys can range from Medium to Diminutive based on DM's discretion.

Alignment and Religion

Being a Spirit, your alignment will forever be with that of chaos. Be it Good or Evil, Chaotic neutral perhaps? No matter your moral sway you were claimed for chaos.

Adventurers

The older the spirit the longer they have been around no? It becomes rare however that a spirit becomes so bored of their life as a toy possessing spirit they do something as radical as putting themselves within the public eye. Then again. Not all spirits are alike, are they? What brings a spirit to such desires is something only they know.

Posessed Toy Racial Traits

• Constructed Dead: Being a Possessed Toy, you're both a Construct and Undead in a sense, You have no Constitution score, Any DCs or other statistics that rely on a Constitution score treated as having a score of 10 (no bonus or penalty).

• Spiritual Needs: Being a Spirit, you no longer need to eat, or breathe. You may do so, though it is not needed. Instead, your requirements are pure Energy. You sap the energy of things and people around you. Fires die faster, Plants wither quicker, and people feel just a little more tired than normal around you. People you force energy siphon from must make a DC 13 Will save, Failure saves add a debuff of -2 to Dexterity and Strength, This debuff lasts till the Target takes a short rest or a spell or potion negates a tiring effect. In Combat, Siphoning counts as an Action and can only be cast once on a single target.

• No Rest for the Wicked: As Stated before, you're no longer living, so your needs differ than that of the still-breathing.
