Features:Thoon Soldier Body: The Thoon Soldier loses all other racial bonuses and becomes a construct, with all of it's penalties and disadvantages, except for the extra HP:
# No Constitution score.
# Low-light vision.
# Darkvision out to 60 feet.
# Immunity to all mind-affecting effects (charms, compulsions, phantasms, patterns, and morale effects).
# Immunity to poison, sleep effects, paralysis, stunning, disease, death effects, and necromancy effects.
# Cannot heal damage on their own, but often can be repaired by certain spells. The DM may also allow the construct to be repaired with the use of the right skills with the right tools. A construct with the fast healing special quality still benefits from this quality.
# Not subject to critical hits, nonlethal damage, ability damage, ability drain, fatigue, exhaustion, or energy drain.
# Immunity to any effect that requires a Fortitude save (unless the effect also works on objects, or is harmless).
# Not at risk of death from massive damage. Immediately destroyed when reduced to 0 hit points or less.
# Since it was never alive, a construct cannot be raised or resurrected except for limited wish, wish and miracle. The 1st makes the construct lose a level, the other two don't.
#However, it can be "repaired" if destroyed by spending 24 hours of work and 500 GP of materials, which make it lose a level.
The Thoon Soldier is a medium sized construct with base speed 30 feet. It has two “arm-axe” attacks dealing 1d8+Str mod damage each. The Thoon Soldier may attack with both arm-axes as a standard action whitout penalty.
It also gains a bonus to it's Nat armor equal to its Str modifier.
Finally it gains +1 HP per HD. This bonus retroatively increases by +1 for every 5 HD of the Thoon Soldier.
Natural Healing: A Thoon Soldier is capable of natural healing, albeit very slowly. A Thoon Soldier heals1 hit point for every 8 hours it remains motionless. It can also be healed trough magic means such as cure spells and potions as if it was a living being.
Aspect: At first level, and at levels 3, 5, 7, 8, the Thoon Soldier learns one of the following Aspects. Each takes a swift action to activate and deals 5 damage to the Thoon Soldier itself when activated. Only have one active at a time.
Bloody Slaughter- When in this aspect, a Thoon Soldier can make a Whilrwind attack as the feat with both arm-axes as a full round action, and it can make attacks of opportunity as if it had the Combat Reflexes feat. If it already had the Whirlwind Attack feat, its arm-axes reach increases by 5 feet. If it already had Combat Reflexes, it can make attacks of opportunity even if the enemy is behind cover or concealment. Upon activation, the Thoon Soldier says in Undercommon “Slaughter for Thoon!”
Fiery Sun-The Thoon Soldier's melee attacks deal an extra 1d6 points of fire damage for each 4 HD it has (if the Thoon Soldier has less than 4 HD, 1d2), and creatures that hit it with a natural or nonreach melee weapon take half that amount of fire damage. Upon activation, the Thoon Soldier says in Undercommon “All Will Burn for Thoon!”
Impervious Tower-When using this aspect, the Thoon Soldier gains a resistance bonus on saving throws and a deflection bonus to AC both equal to half its HD (minimum +1). Upon Activation, the Thoon Soldier says in Undercommon “Stand and fight! Thoon is Thoon!”
Ravenous Horde-When in this aspect, a Thoon Soldier's movement speeds increase by 5 feet for each 4 HD it has (minimum zero), and it can make a melee attack in the middle of its move as if it had the Spring Attack feat. If it already had the Spring Attack feat, as a fullround action it can make a single basic move and perform a full attack at any one point during movement. Upon activation, the Thoon Soldier says in Undercommon “Walk with Thoon!”
Death Blossom-If destroyed when in this aspect, the Thoon Soldier deals 1d6 points of fire damage per HD to all creatrures within a 40-foot-radius burst (Reflex DC 10+1/2 HD+Str mod for half). Upon activation, a Thoon Soldier says in Undercommon “Death blooms in the name of Thoon! Thoon! Thoon!”
The Thoon Soldier gains +2 Str at the first level of this class and then +1 Str at levels 3, 5, 7, 8 for a total of +6 Str at 8th level.
Quintissence Construct:At 2nd, 4th and 6th levels pick another of the following options:
Future Tech-This Thoon Soldier has been equiped with technology from a far away future. It gains 20 arsenal space and can take level I options from the
Arsenal. If it has to spend energy, it must pay HP in a 1 to 1 basis. All weapon stats are converted from mecha scale to regular scale. They can be changed by remaining 8 hours immobile.
If you take this option twice, your arsenal space increases to 40.
If you take this option thrice, you can take level II options.
Ancient Tech- The Thoon soldier has been equiped with plain but reliable technology. Whenever the Thoon Soldier enters an Aspect, it gains a +3 Insight bonus to Str for 1 minute.
Each extra time you pick this, the insight bonus to Str increases by an extra +3.
Fantastic Tech-The Thoon Soldier picks one of
Chinese Star,
Dream Battle,
Plain History or
Doll Judgement. You learn one 1st level maneuver or stance of that school. In addition the related skill becomes a class skill for the Thoon Soldier and it always counts as having max ranks in it.
If you pick this option twice, you learn a 2nd level or lower maneuver or stance from the respective school, and the Thoon Soldier may use may use Str instead of the discipline's main stat.
If you pick this this option thrice, you learn a 3rd level or lower maneuver or stance from the respective school, and Thoon Soldier levels grant full IL for that school's purposes.
Either way, those maneuvers are recovered whenever the Thoon Soldier enters a new Aspect.
Pure Tech-One of the Thoon's axe-arms now counts as being created by
Pure Crafting. Once the specific materials are chosen, they cannot be changed.
If you pick this option twice, the other axe-arm counts as being made of a pure metal as well, which can be the same as the other arm or not.
If you pick this option thrice, the arm-blades now count as masterwork, and can be further improved as regular pure metal weaons.
At 4th level the Thoon Soldier gains resistance to fire equal to 2+HD.
Sharp Axes: At 6th level the Thoon Soldier's axe-arms now have a critical multiplier of x3.
Security Patrol: Thoon Soldiers are mass produced and rarely act alone. At 8th level, if the Thoon Soldier is destroyed, it may choose for all of its gear to self-destruct along with it. If it does so, another Thoon Soldier 2 levels lower appears in a place whitin view, with the exact same build, including equipment except for the two less levels. This new Thoon soldier is at max HP, but otherwise isn't in any Aspect and has the same expended resources otherwise. So for example if the previous Thoon Soldier had Future Tech and had expended the ammo of its weapon, the new Thoon Soldier doesn't have ammo for said weapon as well.
If the Thoon Soldier was high enough level, it is possible for multiple lesser Thoon Soldiers to follow on its wake. So for example a Thoon Soldier 8/Fighter 2 destroyed would lead into an 8th level Thoon Soldier and then into a 6th level Thoon soldier. Either way, if the last remains of the destroyed Thoon Soldiers can be recovered, the newest one can fuse with them over an 8 hour process to recover its lost levels.
What happens when mindflayers decide to explore the far realm? Thoon happens.
What is Thoon? Thoon is Thoon, and Toon is all!
Those guys lay half forgotten in the waiting list, but now that I've discovered them again, I think I'll be working on these guys next, since they're both quite flavourful and have interesting mechanics to work with.
The Thoon Soldier is one of the several constructs created by Thoon Mind Flayers. Those constructs are pseudo organic and don't have DR like most other constructs, instead having special abilities that cost them HP to use, but on the other hand have ways of geting healed when not smiting the the enemies of Thoon.
The Thoon soldier in particular can change between different stances aspects depending on the challenge at hand. But still only filled a bit over half its levels so added the Quintissence Construct ability for some variety. And then the security patrol since they're suposed to come in groups.
So if you want to play the first result of mind flayer robot technology from the far realm, the Thoon Soldier's for you!
