Homebrew Android Species Details

Androids usually appear like metallic humanoids with sleek metal and glass parts. Of course being an android they are sometimes customized to the tasks they were built to perform but most of the time they are bald humanoids usually standing around 6 feet tall and having a slight metallic voice.

Android Traits

You were created and programmed for a specific purpose in mind.

Ability Score Increase

Your Constitution score increases by 1.

Non-aging

Androids usually do not have worry about age as they can be maintained and repaired by their masters or perform these repairs themselves. If they ever find themselves unable to repair or maintain themselves, they can usually go as long as 10 years to find someone who can before their system gives out.

Darkvision

You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray. Your construct nature makes your darkvision unusual: everything you see in darkness is in a shade of green.

Living Construct

Your creature type is construct. While you were constructed, you are a living creature. You are immune to diseases and the poisoned condition. You are considered a humanoid for the purpose of magic that would recover your hit points. You do not need to eat or breathe in order to survive by normal means, but you must consume food and/or drink to convert the matter into energy internally. Instead of sleeping, you enter an inactive "sleeping" state. The time required for you to receive the benefits of a short rest is 2 hours, while a long rest is 4 hours. You do not dream in this state; you are fully aware of your surroundings and notice approaching enemies and other events as normal. This state is also used to recharge your internal energy reserves, negating the need to consume food or drink for the purpose of receiving the benefits of a long rest.

Maintenance

Whenever you are reduced to 0 hit points you deactivate and fall unconscious, you are stable in this state but must receive maintenance to regain consciousness. Healing magic can be used to jump start your system and cause you to regain consciousness, however, you take a level of exhaustion until repaired which can be done over a short or long rest. Alternatively, a creature may make a DC 18 Tools check to repair you over the course of a short or long rest, if successful you gain 1 hit point and regain consciousness. Android's and the race you originated from have advantage on this check.
