Warforged Destroyer[edit]

One of the most advanced warforged warriors crafted for the final battle. Taking a radical new direction in design and purpose. Able to shift from a slow, dangerous, battle machine capable of light spell slinging, to a speedy rolling platform

Radical New Design[edit]

Constructed to be a magic wielding heavy ranged support unit. Your designers broke from standard building designs and went with a radical new approach, creating an incredibly deadly but abysmally slow 3 legged platform, so with yet another radical approach to the design, a form shifting platform was created. Able to roll into the battle and then "deploy" into the battle form, early tests are extremely promising. Will you be able to secure more resources for your creators to put your design into mass production?

Battle mode
Your three legs deploy, instantly stopping your movement, allowing your body to unfold, and your arms to deploy, allowing you to use your Light Force Cannons, and your Spell Launcher mounted underneath one of your Force Cannons your speed decreases by 10 Feet (20 feet). Your Spell Launcher is also your arcane focus, that negates Material components for spell casting.


Force Cannons[edit]

When you deploy into your battle mode, each of your arms ends at the elbow, connecting to a Light Force Cannon. With an attack action you may make ranged attacks as if fighting with two weapons, as if they both had the "light" weapon attribute. Dealing 1d8+Wisdom modifier Force damage, the range of these attacks is 80/320.

Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher

You know three 1st-level Evocation School spells of your choice.

The Spells Known column of the Warforged Destroyer Spellcasting table shows when you learn more Evocation School spells of 1st level or higher.

Suppressionist[edit]

On a fail the target becomes frightened, and the only actions it can take are to seek full cover from you, until the end of it's next turn. You may regain the use of this feature upon completion of a short rest. This feature cannot be used with another feature.

Withering Fire

Upon reaching level 15 you have learned how to affect an area with your Force Cannons. Whenever you make an attack with your Force Cannons you can choose to instead affect a 50 foot cone, all creatures in the affected cone make a Dexterity saving throw, on a success they take half damage, on a fail they take the full 4d8+Wisdom modifier damage, this circumvents features that reduce all/half effects to half/none. You regain the use of this feature upon completion of a short rest. This feature cannot be used with another feature.

It's all about who has the biggest gun.

Big Bore

Overload

At the start of your turn you may use a bonus action to Overload your Force Cannons for one turn, increase the rolled damage die by 1.

This repair requires a long rest. This feature cannot be used with another feature.

Fire For Effect
