A wondrous orb is a sentient magic item, designed to help adventurers where their own talents fall short. These bejewelled orbs are gifted with incorporeality, appearing as spheres of prismatic light on the Material Plane. They are utterly obedient to their owners and serve as talented scouts and healers, but are also useful when navigating physical and social traps.
A wondrous orb speaks Common and understands all other languages through its comprehend languages ability.
This construct has a Constitution score (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?533099-Potential-houserule-Constitution-scores-for-constructs-and-undead&p=22283354#post22283354). It heals naturally, heals 1 hit point from mending, and heals 10 hit points per caster level (maximum 50) from make whole.

Light (Su)

Spell-Like Abilities (Sp)
At will - detect magic, mage hand, mending, open/close, prestidigitation. Caster level 6th.
