Magic Item Core

Your core is a magic item. Work with your DM to determine what your magic core is. When you hit 0 hit points you lose your magically created outer skin and all your gear falls to the ground. A mending spell  grants you 1 hit point when you are in this state, otherwise you have to make death saving throws. On a set of failed death saving throws you revert back to the magic item you were based on. If you would be targeted by a dispell magic and fail the saving throw you become an ordinary object until the next dawn, at which time you can around as you wish. You can also use an action to hide as your magic item. In this state you can cast spells normally but can't move unless you reactivate your outer skin. You can't make use of your magic core by yourself.
