Homebrew Gearborn Species Details

As a clockwork, you hold tons of potential with either your magical metal and components, or your hard hitting arms that spin with gears that hold a large gear aspect ration. Due to your unique form and existence: any biological species that sets eyes upon you see you as strange and an otherworldly being not know to their realm. You are a being that can only speak Clokworkish as your species is a sort of separated hivemind.

When creating a character, it is good to note down a few things, such as where the brand of Thy Monarchy's symbol is from the world you originate from, as this is a sort of seal that keeps the magic contained in your metal, and shows the power of Thy Monarchy has upon all clockwork beings.

Ability Score Increase: Your Constitution score increases by 2, and your Intelligence score increases by 1.

Age: Gearborn are created fully formed and do not age in the traditional sense. They can function optimally for about 300 years before their mechanisms begin to wear down.

Alignment: Gearborn tend to lean towards lawful alignments, given their structured nature and the orderliness of their society under "Thy Monarchy." However, individuals may vary greatly due to their own wills and ways.

Size: Gearborn vary widely in height and build, from barely 7 feet to well over 13 feet tall. Your size is Medium/Large.

Speed: Your base walking speed is 40 feet.

Mechanical limitation: you do not heal and must repair yourself. Minor injuries are repairable with nothing but can only due during short/long rests, major injuries must be replaced with new metal, each major injury you must reduce your total hit points by 1, but may regain when fixed. (your tiny clockwork devices can heal these injuries from a long rest, and mend can be used on these injuries) 5 minor injuries is 1 major injury
