Description

See Armos (creature overview)

Much like the common armos, an armos knight appears indistinguishable from a stone statue and is comprised almost entirely of stone animated by magic. As a nonliving sentry, it remains dormant wherever its master or its creator has placed it. In many cases, an armos knight will stay on-guard for centuries or longer, remaining as motionless as the stone statue it resembles. One is often hidden among inanimate humanoid statues which are indistinguishable from them.

Aggressive Sentry. An armos knight is specifically designed to resemble a humanoid warrior and wields stone weaponry as long-lasting and enduring as its body. When a living creature enters the area guarded by the armos knight or dares to touch it directly, the knight springs to life with the sole intent to slay any and all invaders. Although it will chase down fleeing invaders, it almost never willingly leaves the area it intends to guard.

Constructed Nature. The armos knight doesn't require air, food, water, or sleep.

Traits

Antimagic Susceptibility. The armos knight is Unconscious while in the area of an antimagic field. Any effect which destroys or disables a magic item has the same effect on the armos knight.

False Appearance. While the armos remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from a stone statue of a humanoid warrior.

Inanimate Invulnerability. If the armos knight did not move or take any actions on its last turn, or has not yet had a turn, it is immune to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.

Actions

Multiattack. The armos knight makes two melee attacks.

Spear. Melee or Ranged Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft. or range 20/60 ft., one target. Hit: 6 (1d6 + 3) piercing damage if used in one hand to make a melee attack, 7 (1d8 + 3) piercing damage if used in two hands to make a melee attack, or 7 (1d6 + 3) piercing damage if used to make a ranged attack.

Variant Actions: Armos Swordsman

Although armos are most often built with spears, other weaponry is common. An armos swordsman lacks the spear action, and instead has either of the following actions:

Longsword. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) slashing damage, or 8 (1d10 + 3) slashing damage if used in two hands.
Warhammer. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) bludgeoning damage, or 8 (1d10 + 3) bludgeoning damage if used in two hands.
