Description
These wax-headed constructs are ever vigilant, standing ready until the moment they are lit. Candle Guards are protectors by design and are often seen in the service of people who think hiring, feeding, housing, and trusting humanoid guards is not the best option. In some places in the world, Candle Guards are used exclusively as night guards to allow a full night of rest for their humanoid counterparts.
Candle Guards are human sized constructs that are made to protect a place or person. The enchantments by which they are animated allows them to perform some small feats of magic. This grants them the ability to repair minor damage they sustain, keep their own flames lit, and ignite other Candle Guards in case it is required or ordered.
