Like many of the Warforged that can be encountered throughout Eberron you express signs of sentience and a remarkable capacity for personal growth and evolution. Unlike the others, who are forged of stone or steel, you appear to be made almost entirely, if not completely, out of silver.
If the silver exterior did not attract the attention of others, then your overwhelming sense of Might surely would. It was no exaggeration to say you are the living embodiment of what it means to be Mighty. At least that's what some would say if you were to ask them. Others however would be so inclined to write you off as nothing more than another shovelhead albeit a shinier and more valuable pile of scrap than the rest.
The strangest curiosity however was that of your construction. The unfamiliar strangeness often left the most gifted of tinkerers and artificers perplexed upon closure inspection for your design. They would often comment about the craftsmanship being dissimilar to anything of House Cannith, or how unsettling the thought of dealing with the creation of someone, or something, whom they knew frighteningly little about. Some would even belittle the matter as "Who could really say?" As not even you could recall the earlier parts of your existence or from where you came.
Increasingly few remained who could understand your inner workings or tell you from where your cold heartstone core originated. All that remained was to seek out your purpose and find the legacy for which you were created? You pondered if you might ever find the answers or would you be consigned to travel across all the planes of existence and the entirety of time in search of them.
The only problem would be the impossibility of walking between plains or surviving the temporal energies of time travel unharmed. At least that's what all the scholars you've ever met have told you.
- Skill Proficiencies: Investigation, plus one from among Arcana, Insight, and Persuasion.
- Tool Proficiencies: Tinker's tools
- Equipment: A set of artisan's tools with which you are proficient, a small knife, a necklace made of an unusual strong metal you have had for longer than you can remember, a picture of a woman with the name "Jhoira" written on the back, a set of clothes, common, and a pouch containing 10 gp.
As if you were the very father of machines himself, given enough time there is no mechanical contraption you cannot come to understand. Most common machinery or trinkets have their inner most workings and secrets become known to you with just a simple touch of your hand. So long as you have a perfect understanding of what you wish to reproduce you can create a near flawless replica of anything you have analyzed or have knowledge of so long as it can be crafted with a tool you are proficient in using.
Suggested Characteristics
Suggested Characteristics
Silver Golems are shaped by their experiences from traveling with much of it coming from the companions with whom they travel. Their interactions with others or lack thereof may often end up effecting their mannerisms and tolerance for socialization. Should they prefer the companionship of their comrades or the silent comforting hum of solitude among their own creations is dependent on the events of their past.
Their flaws might be due to the usual longevity of life such as feelings of hopelessness or having a broken sense of social norms or having taken a vow of pacifism or incredible distress from having committed or witnessed some terrible horror buried in the memories of their past.
