This imposing Large-sized construct captures a moment of solemn duty or ancient sorrow. Featuring thick segmented plating, a striking architectural halo, and a detailed runic base, this kneeling sentinel serves as the perfect centerpiece for a forgotten shrine or a high-stakes boss encounter.
A powerful construct is held in place by magical chains and runic warding stones, perhaps as a punishment or to keep it from waking.
A powerful temple guardian, a dormant boss that activates when players touch an artifact, or a high-ranking NPC construct serving as a tragic, stationary protector.
