Lineal Sentinels are constructs forged to defend a family, created from steel and blood. They are mindlessly loyal to the members of their family, treating any full-blooded member of the family it is bonded to as its master. Lineal Sentinels are humanoid in shape and covered in flesh, appearing to be members of the same race as their master family from afar. However, in plain sight, their artificiality is obvious; their flesh is obviously stretched over the metallic frame, and their face is utterly emotionless. A Lineal Sentinel is utterly selfless, and will do all it can to defend its family.
Familial Wrath (Su)
A Lineal Sentinel gets a +3 enhancement bonus on all attack and damage rolls made against a creature it has seen harm a member of its master family, except in acts of self defense.
Blood Bond (Su)
A Lineal Sentinel may communicate telepathically with any member of its master family within 100 ft. of it.
Shared Flesh (Su)
As a standard action, a Lineal Sentinel may touch a member of its master family to heal him up to 20 hp. However, for every hp healed this way, the Lineal Sentinel takes a point of damage. In addition, a member of the Lineal Sentinel’s family may touch it in order to heal it in this way.
Construction
The body of a Lineal Sentinel is crafted from 750 pounds of iron. Assembling the body requires a DC 15 Craft (armorsmithing) check or a DC 15 Craft (weaponsmithing) check. It must then be treated with a special alchemical mixture, consisting of a pint of blood taken from at least six full-blooded members of the family that is to be the sentinel’s master family, and an assortment of alchemical preservatives and stimulants. The iron and alchemical components are worth a total of 1,000 gp. A Lineal Sentinel must be crafted by a member of the family that is to be its master family.
