Homebrew A.I. Species Details
AI, or artificial Intelligence, are intricately designed machines. With specialized smooth design, AI are perhaps one of the most knowledgeable races when it comes to sheer intelligence. these races have no natural end to their lifespan, and are designed as gargantuan quadruped machines with flat bodies and massive legs, although can transfer their consciousnesses to other mechanical bodies over the course of a day. they tend to wander around, and are usually kind, although act with a notable lack of emotion. A.I. tend to prefer the company of other mechanical beings over biological life-forms, but will try to help those in need. A.I.'s can speak, write, and understand common, and most can understand 2 other languages as well.
A.I. Traits
1. sleek design. your advanced central processing unit provides a 2 point bonus to intelligence and a 1 point bonus to either wisdom or constitution. 2. armored shell. the typical A.I body is unusually well armored. 3. specialized design. most A.I. are created to perform a specific task, and as such are extremely good at said task. 4. system reboot. when taking a long rest, an A.I. spends 6 hours in a trancelike state, in which the A.I. is fully aware of it's surroundings and can cast spells with no verbal or material components, but can't move or speak. 5. non-biological. because you are a machine and not a living being, you get the following benefits: -you are immune to poison damage and being poisoned -You don’t need to eat, drink, or breathe. -You are immune to disease. - magic can’t put you to sleep.sleek design

Posted May 2, 2023question about System Reboot. If you can cast spell but cannot move (removing somatic component dependent spells) cannot speak (removing verbal component dependent spells) and cannot supply material components you just can't cast spells period. Would it not be easier to just specify you cannot cast spells in this state.
