A light breeze of cinnemon slips in your nostrils, which seems to come from her pulled-back almond-brown hair as the hazel-eyed woman looks you all over. Her glasses fog up a bit while drinking her hot.

This construct is the size of a soccer ball in its resting form. Once activated, it transforms into a walking insect with an arcane cannon for a body. These constructs are utilized for mid- to long-range combat. They can only be operated by the individual who has activated them. The construct will revert to rest mode if that individual perishes. Only specially trained individuals, such as artificers, can effectively use this device. The user must use their bonus action to issue commands to the construct. If no commands are given, it will take the dodge action. Others must roll an Arcana check with a DC of 11 to operate the construct. On a failed roll, the construct will remain idle and take the dodge action.
