|description=An armos is a stone statue animated by tireless magic. The exact likeness of the armos is usually somewhat humanoid in shape but can resemble anything from a disembodied head to a petite dragon.{{a}}'''''Automated Defense.''''' An armos remains motionless until it detects an intruder through tremorsense, at which point it suddenly springs into motion in an attempt to thrwart the intrusion. Unlike the more advanced armos knights, an armos has little or no mobility—once awakened, it can only hop around violently as it lacks mobile limbs. In many cases an armos was placed as a guardian in a place of spiritual importance, remaining motionless for centuries, and only awakens when it detects a nearby intruder. An armos will never willingly leave its post. {{a}}'''''Spooker not a Fighter.''''' An armos' primary job is to scare away animals and would-be burglars, as it can't put up much of a fight. When desperate the armos can explode its body as a last-ditch effort to blow away an intruder.{{a}}{{CT|Constructed Nature|name=armos knight}}

{{CT|False Appearance|While the armos remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from a stone statue.}}

{{CT|Inanimate Invulnerability|Until it moves or takes an action, the armos is an {{BL|object}} with a {{BL|damage threshold}} of 10. An object with a damage threshold is immune to all damage unless it takes at once an amount of damage greater than its threshold.}}

{{CT|Weak Point|An armos has an exposed gemstone somewhere on its body, which is the focal point of its magic. If this stone is hit with a {{BL|target strike}} or {{BL|sneakstrike}}, the armos must use its Explode action the next time it is able to take an action.}}

{{CA|Explode|All creatures within 10 feet of the armos must make a DC 14 {{BL|Dexterity}} {{BL|saving throw}}, taking 13 (2d12) thunder damage on a failed save, or half as much on a success. After using this action the armos drops to 0 {{BL|heart point|heart points}}.}}
