Jul 1, 2013 Jul 1, 2013 12:53 AM NPC Islands of War Bronze Guard Dog 0 Varies Bronze None Bronze Varies 872 lb 0 Varies Golem 4 This is a Bronze Golem specially crafted to house the spirit of a large guard dog, using the Life Force Transfer spell. It has all the senses a dog would expect to have, but is much stronger and heavier. This is normally done to give an ailing pet (or wizard's familiar) a measure of immortality and is only ever done with exceptionally loyal dogs. It is suggested that the GM use one or more fright checks to suggest how the dog handles the transformation. This can be lessened for an old dog that was in constant pain or one that was prepared for the change by being the subject of temporary transformative magic in the past. The owners of a pet they're planning to put in a golem often do this to guage what the animal's reaction might be. Most will slowly step the dog up through weaker golem bodies before going this far, in order to give the dog a chance to adjust to the new level of strength, so they aren't accidentally killed by their pet. This progression is usually followed: leather, clay, concrete, stone and finally bronze. 0 0 217 10 10 10 10 6 8 0 5 false false false Bronze Golem, Large Guard Dog Advantages Claws, Blunt (Feet) Physical 3 thr:+1 cr Kick C,1 No No DX -2 Skill Brawling -2 Skill Karate -2 B42 Only pay for hands or feet, not both Advantage Damage Resistance Physical, Exotic 6 5 Ablative -80 total B47 Absorbtion 80 total B46 Enhances @Trait@ Absorbtion 100 total B46 Enhances any trait Absorbtion 80 total B46 Healing only Can't wear armor -40 total B47 Directional -40 total B47 @Direction: Back, Right, Left, Top or Underside@ Directional -20 total B47 Front Flexible -20 total B47 Hardened 20 1 total B47 Limited -40 total B46 @Common Attack Form@ Limited -60 total B46 @Occasional Attack Form@ Limited -80 total B46 @Rare Attack Form@ Limited -20 total B46 @Very Common Attack Form@ Reflection 100 total B47 Semi-Ablative -20 total B47 Tough Skin -40 total B47 B47 Advantage full_body_except_eyes 1 Discriminitory Smell Physical, Exotic 15 Emotion Sense 50 total B49 Profiling 50 total P47 B49 Gives +4 bonus to smell and Tracking where smell helps Advantage Doesn't Breathe Physical, Exotic 20 Gills -50 total B49 Gills -20 total B49 Suffocates in air Oxygen Absorption -25 total B49 Oxygen Storage -50 total B49 Can hold breath 25 times as long as normal Oxygen Storage -40 total B49 Can hold breath 50 times as long as normal Oxygen Storage -30 total B49 Can hold breath 100 times as long as normal Oxygen Storage -20 total B49 Can hold breath 200 times as long as normal Oxygen Storage -10 total B49 Can hold breath 300 times as long as normal Oxygen Combustion -50 total B49 B49 Advantage Doesn't Eat or Drink Physical, Exotic 10 B50 Advantage Doesn't Sleep Physical, Exotic 20 B50 Advantage High Pain Threshold Physical 10 B59 Never suffer shock penalties when injured; +3 on all HT rolls to avoid knockdown and stunning; +3 to resist torture Advantage Increased Dexterity Physical 2 20 No Fine Manipulators -40 total B15 Advantage Attribute dx 1 Increased Health Physical 5 10 B14 Advantage Attribute ht 1 Increased Strength Physical 13 10 No Fine Manipulators -40 total B15 Size -10 1 total B15 Super-Effort 300 total Sup24 B14 Advantage Attribute st 1 Injury Tolerance (Homogenous) Physical, Exotic 40 B60 Advantage Injury Tolerance (No Blood) Physical, Exotic 5 B61 Advantage Pressure Support Physical, Exotic 3 5 B77 Advantage Resistant Physical Mental Attack 30 total B80 @Common: Poison, Sickness, etc.@ 15 total B81 @Occasional: Disease, Ingested Poison, etc.@ 10 total B81 @Rare: Acceleration, Altitude Sickness, Bends, Seasickness, Space Sickness, Nanomachines, etc.@ 5 total B81 Immunity 1 B81 +8 to all HT rolls to resist 0.5 B81 +3 to all HT rolls to resist 0.33 B81 B81 Advantage Resistant Physical Metabolic Hazards 30 total B80 @Common: Poison, Sickness, etc.@ 15 total B81 @Occasional: Disease, Ingested Poison, etc.@ 10 total B81 @Rare: Acceleration, Altitude Sickness, Bends, Seasickness, Space Sickness, Nanomachines, etc.@ 5 total B81 Immunity 1 B81 +8 to all HT rolls to resist 0.5 B81 +3 to all HT rolls to resist 0.33 B81 B81 Advantage Sealed Physical, Exotic 15 B82 Advantage Teeth, Sharp Physical, Exotic 1 thr-1 cut Bite C No No Skill Brawling 0 DX 0 B91 Perk Ultrahearing Physical, Exotic 5 No normal hearing -5 total B94 B94 Advantage Unaging Physical, Exotic 15 Age Control 20 total B95 B95 Advantage Vacuum Support Physical, Exotic 5 B96 Advantage Disadvantages Chummy Mental -5 B126 React to others at +2; -1 to IQ-based skills when alone Disadvantage Decreased Intelligence Mental 6 -20 B15 Attribute Disadvantage iq -1 Disturbing Voice Physical -10 B132 Disadvantage voice Fragile (Unnatural) Physical, Exotic -50 B137 Resilient Golems don't have this Disadvantage Sense of Duty Mental Friends and Companions -5 total B153 @Small Group@ -5 total B153 Master -2 total B153 @Large Group@ -10 total B153 @Entire Race@ -15 total B153 Every Living Being -20 total B153 B153 Disadvantage Unhealing (Total) Physical, Exotic -30 B160 Disadvantage Wealth (Dead Broke) Social -25 B25 Disadvantage Domestic Animal B263 Disadvantages Cannot Speak Physical -15 B125 Disadvantage stuttering Hidebound Physical -5 B138 Disadvantage Social Stigma (Valuable Property) Social -10 B156 Disadvantage Features Taboo Trait (Fixed IQ) Physical B263 Feature Features Neither has nor spends Fatigue Points Physical Feature Quadruped B263 Advantages Extra Legs Physical, Exotic Four Legs 5 total B54 @5 or 6@ 10 total B55 @7+@ 15 total B55 Long 100 1 total B55 Cannot Kick -50 total B55 B54 Advantage Disadvantages Horizontal Physical, Exotic -10 B139 Disadvantage No Fine Manipulators Physical -30 B145 Disadvantage st 40 dx 40 Brawling DX/E 4 B182 Combat/Weapon Melee Combat Brawling 2 1 Tracking Per/A 4 B226 Outdoor/Exploration Per -5 Skill Naturalist -5 Portrait 8.5 11 0.5 0.5 0.5 0.5 Monochrome Single Normal
