Class Features[edit]
All of the following are class features of the Advanced Warforged.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency: The Warforged is proficient in any weapon types it uses from
its evolution. This Warforged cannot wear any armor, and must rely on built in Evolution
upgrades for AC, SR, and other damage resistance. Weapons also gained through Evolution,
depending on the weapon, cannot be used with normal weapons. Hidden blades cannot be used
together with a sword, nor can a bow be used with the Energy Rifle.
Online: The Advanced Warforged runs on a limited power source that recovers at the end of
each day. Some abilities require access to this power core. The Core powers the main functions
of the Warforged, including thought and movement. The Battery is power that can be used
without any risk to the main core. While the energy in the Core can be used, doing so may cause
the breakdown of the Warforged. The Core value determines how many passive systems can be
run at a time. If energy from the core is used up, passives are shut down to conserve power. If all
power is gone, the Warforged is considered dead unless the players can figure out a way to
recharge Core. Do note that the Core is a mixture of fusion energy and magic, and as such
normal electricity cannot be used to recharge.
Steel Evolution: The Warforged chooses unique upgrades upon every other level up, added
through nano-technology. Only one of the three listed for that level can be chosen; once picked,
the other two options for that level are no longer available. As such it is recommended to have a
game plan for late-game, as certain evolution choices work better together.
Standard Frame: The basic body of the Warforged. It is a thin body that is practically a bunch
of exposed metal. It is only vaguely human in nature, as most of the body is exposed metal. The
head is often merely a skull, unless stated otherwise by the DM. This frame can be built upon as
the Warforged Evolves, and any updated frames replace this one. The Warforged weighs 75 lbs.
with this frame. This frame allows the Warforged to hit for 1d4 damage per fists, wield basic and
martial weapons, and also communicate telepathically with allies within 30 ft.

health by 5 per hour spent resting.
Advanced Frame: At level 5 the Warforged's frame becomes sturdier regardless of its build
path. It remains the same weight, but grants the Warforged +2 natural AC. This replaces the
bonuses from Standard Frame.

path. It remains the same weight, but grants the Warforged +4 natural AC and Damage Reduction
3/-. This replaces the bonuses from Advanced Frame.
Elite Frame: At level 15 the Warforged's frame becomes even more sturdy regardless of its build
path. It remains the same weight, but grants the Warforged +5 natural AC, +5 SR, and Damage
Reduction 3/-. This replaces the bonuses from Refined Frame.
True Frame: At level 20 the Warforged's frame becomes how it was in its prime. It remains the
same weight, but grants the Warforged +5 natural AC, +10 SR, Damage Reduction 6/-, and
immunity to electrical damage. This replaces the bonuses from Elite Frame.
Below are the Passive Systems for the Warforged. These run off of Core Energy only and can
work together with other bonuses, both external and internal:
Translator (Passive System): The Warforged is able to understand any language as long as it
has access to the written alphabet and has spent a month among those who speak it.
Advanced Sight (Passive System): The Warforged has the ability to improve his eyesight. At
Rank One he gains Permanent Sight, which allows the Warforged to resist blinds from any
source and gains +2 to will saves against charm-based spells. At Rank Two he gains Tactical
Sight, which grants the Warforged Dark-vision 100 ft. and +1 to initiative. At Rank Three he
gains Hunter's Sight and can track one target's movements with his visual sensors. Select one
target during a fight and gain +2 to hit and +2 Dodge AC against that target. Also grants +5 to
spot checks against the target if it hides. This is a passive ability and requires one core power to
run. Can be turned on and off at will, but takes a swift action to do so.
Kinetic Shielding (Passive System): The Warforged's frame is covered in a force-field that
absorbs up to ten damage. If the shielding is not broken in a single round, it regenerates back to
full for the next round. Once the shielding is broken, it will naturally regenerate after two turns
even if damage is taking place. This only stops new damage, and would not protect against
corrosive damage affecting him. At Rank Two the shielding increases to absorb up to twenty
damage. Requires one core power to run. Can be turned on and off at will, but takes a swift
action to do so.
Kinetic Piercing (Passive System): The Warforged's bladed weapons deal an additional +2
damage on hit while activated. Requires one core power to run. Can be turned on and off at will,
but takes a swift action to do so.
Stabilizer (Passive System): The Warforged gains +5 to Balance and Jump while activated.
Requires one core power to run. Can be turned on and off at will, but takes a swift action to do
so.
Sneak Field (Passive System): The Warforged gains +5 to Move Silently and Hide while
activated. Requires one core power to run. Can be turned on and off at will, but takes a swift
action to do so.
Accuracy Amplifier (Passive System): The Warforged gains +2 to hit while activated. Requires
one core power to run. Can be turned on and off at will, but takes a swift action to do so.
Reality Distortion (Passive System): The Warforged gains a 10% chance to avoid any strikes
coming his way, be they magical, supernatural, or physical. Requires two core power to run. Can
be turned on and off at will, but takes a swift action to do so.
Laser-Cut Evolution (Based on previous weapon evolution): At level 10, replace the
Warforged's weapon with one of the following: Laser-Cut Great-sword, Laser-Cut Hidden
Blades, or Laser-Cut Rapier depending on what weapon was unlocked earlier.
Great-sword => Laser-Cut Great- Hidden Blades => Laser-Cut Rapier => Laser-Cut

Campaign Information[edit]
Playing an Advanced Warforged[edit]
Religion: Any that an artificial intelligence may follow. However, one may have questions about
whenever or not it even has a soul, as it was made by man.
Other Classes: An Advanced Warforged gets along with all classes, although it may have moral
issues with others based on what it believes in.
Combat: The Advanced Warforged is strange as, depending on its evolution, it can be either a
versatile front-line tank or a long range support unit. It is up to the player to decide what role the
unit will fulfill in combat.
Advancement: There is little chance of multi-classing as an Advanced Warforged, as it gains its
powers through evolution and not through actual training.
Advanced Warforged in the World[edit]
Advanced Warforged? Aye, I've seen one. Or rather, I saw its destruction. From
“ leagues off it barraged our vanguard with strange explosions that ripped through ”
all our defenses. Our archers couldn't even make a dent in its armor.

Daily Life: These Warforged are often following their orders from a long time ago, be it
guarding a region or gathering data. While they are set to follow their programming, they are
sentient beings that can be convinced to leave these areas if logic is used.
Notables: A.I.D.A was one of these Advanced Warforged. She was designed to bombard
anything that came in range of an ancient citadel. It took a specialized team to finally get within
range and destroy the Warforged, although her core's self-destruction kept them from recovering
much from her remains. Some of the metal was forged into blades or armor due to its high
defensive properties.
Organizations: These Warforged tend not to be part of any organizations, although they may
join a party that can convince them that their goals match its own.
NPC Reactions: The metal monstrosity brings glares and fear. Warforged tend to bring up
memories of war; this one is no different. If anything, its strange weapons and frames may bring
even more fear its way.
Advanced Warforged Lore[edit]
Characters with ranks in History (Arcana) can research Advanced Warforged to learn more about
them. When a character makes a skill check, read or paraphrase the following, including
information from lower DCs.

that seems to glow in the night. By the front entrance a strange metallic being seems to be
standing guard, its body covered in heavy plates of similar make of the metal walls around it.
