Alchemical child?

[tepes]

so a while back I swear I read in a raven loft book about something I believe was called an alchemical child (and some kind of greater version of it?), that was essentially a hyper realistic test tube clone of someone that was actually a construct with a unique trait called "life like" or something like that. but I've spent about 4 collective hours combing through various PDF's and cant for the life of me find it. any one have any leads?

Thanks in advance! :smallbiggrin:

That's right. Philosophical Children keep racial hit dice but not class levels. Unlike a simulacrum, they are constructs. They can also gain experience points and class levels.

It will probably require DM adjudication because a DM will look at the construct immunities and probably say no, especially since you could have an alchemical child wizard, for example. Making the creatures living constructs like warforged might be a good compromise.
