Homebrew Bulwark Species Details
Molded from the earth and given life through prolonged exposure to magic, Bulwarks are primarily crafted as unwavering and faithful servants. They resemble massive boulders that have sprouted limbs, with elongated arms terminating in powerful, pincer-like hands, while their stumpy legs keep their vast torsos aloft.
Their construction process is intricate, necessitating an "animate object" spell every day for an entire year. It's a testament to the dedication of those who create them, and as a result, Bulwarks are innately loyal to their creators. Though their lumbering forms might seem clumsy, their grip is unyielding, and their strength unmatched.
