Description
Androids are otherworldly, intelligent constructs built to resemble humanoids. They have coldly logical personalities, and either a contempt towards or outright hatred of organic life. Androids are much stronger and faster than they appear, although they prefer to hide their capabilities unless they are endangered. Their one weakness is lightning - the same design features that allow them to channel energy as a weapon make them poorly grounded against electricity.

Posted Jul 20, 2023This is a pretty good monster, it works and its stat block is readable. Also, pretty cool theme going on there, what with the false appearance trait and all. No notes.
Also, nice bit of realism that it is vulnerable to lightning damage, because that stuff would overload its circuits real easy if not carefully channeled.

Posted Aug 15, 2023I think this monster had some actual effort put into it, unlike SOME home brew. This is well balanced and I appreciate that it's not just some CR 30 thing that could pulp literally anything because it can deal 8536458987294533070489574697938241213253904859684790830795304928d12 damage and has a walking speed of 3000000000000000000000 feet. Good job.

Posted Dec 14, 2023Cool, but why is it called A.C.E? It is described as an android everywhere else.
