Description
The Crystal Skirmisher is a tall and broad shouldered figure made almost entirely out of a gently glowing orange crystal. Inlaid across the crystal at various points are iron studs. These seem to spark with a feint electrical energy whenever something comes into contact. On their hips sit two scimitars with blades lined with the orange crystal.
The most notable function of the Crystal Skirmisher and in fact the entire Crystal Automaton family is their ability to be piloted via psychic link. When piloted in this way the Automatons have their "Soft Stats" replaced by the creature controlling them.
