Living Construct
You are a Construct. In addition, you are immune to the poisoned condition, sleep, fear, and disease effects. You have resistance to piercing damage. You have resistance to slashing unless the roll is a critical, hitting the wood fibers of your muscle, then you take the full critical damage. You are weak to lightning, and fire damage. You do not need to eat, sleep, or breathe, and cannot gain the magical effects from consumables, or recover HP from potions. As a Doll you receive only half HP from recovery dice during a short or long rest and the effects of healing spells, unless a spell effect details otherwise.
Trance
Dolls do not need sleep. Instead they fall deeply dormant, remaining semi-conscious, for 4 hours a day. The Common word for this is "trance". While dormant, you dream after a fashion; such dreams are actually Daydreams that do not behave as dreams at all. After resting in this way, you gain the same benefit a human would from 8 hours of sleep.
Magical Enhancement
Animate dolls have more magic than they usually show and are capable of casting powerful spells without a problem.
Defensive Move
When a creature you can see attacks a target other than you, you can use your reaction to move at half your walking speed into 5ft range of the target and creature to impose disadvantage and take the hit instead.
