Homebrew Chronoforged Species Details
The Chronoforged are constructs built not only from steel and arcane engineering, but from fractured temporal theory. Unlike standard warforged, they do not exist in a single moment in time. Instead, they persist as overlapping iterations of possible futures—some that survived, some that failed, and some that have yet to happen.
To observe a Chronoforged in motion is to see a being slightly ahead of itself, slightly behind itself, and never fully anchored to the present.
