Anima Traits

Your Anima character has the following traits. A few of the traits give you a choice; consider how your choice reflects the purpose for which your character was built.

Ability Score Increase

Your Constitution score increases by 2, and one other ability score of your choice increases by 1.

Age

A typical warforged is between two hundred and four hundred years old. The maximum Anima lifespan remains a mystery; so far, Anima have shown no signs of deterioration due to age. You are immune to magical aging effects.

Alignment

Most Animatake comfort in the undead or necrotic, tending toward chaos and neutrality. But some have absorbed the morality, or lack thereof, of the beings with which they served.

Size

Your size is Medium. To set your height and weight randomly, start with rolling a size modifier:

Size modifier = 2d6

Height = 5 feet + 10 inches + your size modifier in inches

Weight in pounds = 270 + (4 × your size modifier)

Speed

Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Necrotic Adaptation

You were created to have remarkable fortitude, represented by the following benefits:

  • You have advantage on saving throws against being poisoned, and you have resistance to poison damage.
  • You don’t need to eat, drink, or breathe.
  • You are immune to disease.
  • You don’t need to sleep, and magic can’t put you to sleep.

innate Arcanum

Whenever you make an attack that deals necrotic damage or cast a necromancy school spell of a 1st level or higher you may expend any amount of charges to add that many d4 Necrotic Damage to the effect of the attack or spell those charges recharge after a long rest.

Claws

Your claws are natural weapons, which you can use to make unarmed strikes. If you hit with them, you can deal Necroticdamage equal to 1d4 + your Intelligencemodifier, instead of the bludgeoning damage normal for an unarmed strike.

Integrated Purpose

You gain one Feat of your choice.

Languages

You can speak, read, and write Common and Draconic.
