Homebrew Living Scarecrow Species Details
Living Scarecrow were created by spiteful witches either to imprison their enemies or to hold the souls of their victims to more power out of them. Eventually either the scarecrow, spirit, or both run off in hopes of freedom.
Living Scarecrow Traits
Scarecrow are charismatic, hardworking constructs that don't need to do things most mortals do.Restlessness
You can't sleep or be put to sleep. Instead of sleeping during a long rest you sit in an inactive state for 6 hours and you remain conscious
Plush Internals
As you don't have a normal skeleton or real flesh you have resistance to bludgeoning damage
Cursed Existence
Your existence is possible because of the magical being that is imprisoned in your body. The two of you are working together to reclaim your own separate lives. You can use a bonus action to attack with the animal that the being inside of you manifests as (a familiar) and deal 2D6 slashing or piercing damage.
Lack of Organs
You don't have lungs or any other organs so you don't need to eat, drink, (you may choose to do so), or breathe and you can't bleed.
Lovable Dork
You are always kind of stumbling around but everyone finds it kind of endearing. You have a +2 to charisma.
Just Your Job
Animals and beast are suspicious of you because... well, you're a scarecrow. You have advantage in intimidating beast and animals.
