Homebrew Ent Species Details

A large, plantlike contruct created by a dark artificer to do their master's bidding. The Ents' future two unique organisms, an armored up "Main" body called the Ent Host that contains the Ent Pilot, a small creature that controls the Host both from the inside and psychically. 

Ent Traits

Ents are plantlike constructs that are psychically bonded to their hosts.

Embark/Disembark

The Ent Pilot climbs in or out of its Host, requiring 5 mvt speed and an action.

Hardwoodskin Armor

Ent skin is made of an incredibly dense and strong wood, which is incredibly difficult to break through and damage. This comes at the cost of Ents not able to wear standard armor due to the misshaped nature of their bodies.  They are also resistant to Bludgeoning, Piercing, and Slashing from Nonmagical Attacks, making them quite tanky. It should be noted, all relevant buffs/debuffs of hardwoodskin armor only apply when the Ent is inside its host. Ent Pilots are able to wear armor due to their smaller stature being more fitting for armor that's intended for smaller humanoids.

Ability Score Increase

Ents are incredibly powerful physically due to their towering bodies and wooden complexion.
