Homebrew Forged Guard (Fairy Armor) Species Details

(Re-imagined half-orc ) The Forged Guard is a medium humanoid set of enchanted armor created for a fairy to pilot into battle.  While it walks erect, it is often crafted to resemble an animal native to the fairy's home, such as a bear or wolf.  Sightings of a Forged Guard's glowing blue eyes and pulsing arcane etchings in the dark of the forest are the cause of rumors of ghostly protectors in the deep woods.
