    Default Becoming a Construct [D&D 3.5]

    Hey there, does anyone know of ways that a Humanoid type can become more like a Construct type? Turning into one, partially or otherwise, I mean.

    Classes, Prestige Classes, Templates, Feats, Spells, etc. are all welcomed.

    Many things with "warforged" in the name, either starting as a race, or taking that PRC that turns you into one.

    Half Golem can turn you into a contruct, but that is generally a bad idea.

    The Half-Golem template in the MM2 transforms you when you fail a Will save (which you can willingly fail).

    There's also Warforged, even if they are Living Constructs.

    BOOM

    Green Star Adept PrC, should you be willing to accept it. Should you be discovered, optimizers will disavow all knowledge of your existence. This post will now self-destruct.

    Well, warforged are constructs already. I'm looking to turn a true-born humanoid into a construct.

    Thanks for the Greenstar Adept, I'll check it out.

    Don't. He isn't kidding (except about the self destruct part, and he can still delete the post if he wants...), the class is considered horrible (not optimizer horrible, but horrible horrible.).

    There is a 3 level (I think it was 3 levels, very likely wrong) that turns you into a warforged IIRC. It isn't good either, but it is only 3 levels of the nightmare compared to the GSAs 10.

    Renegade Mastermaker gives you Living Construct traits without sucking as bad as Green Star Adept. There's also some Construct grafts, which let you stick construct bits to yourself. The Fiend Folio (Maug) and some of the Eberron (Warforged) books should have them.

    Green Star Adept is not that bad.

    There are construct grafts in Faiths of Eberron. Fiend Folio has a few Maug [constructs] grafts.

    The Renegade Mastermaker PrC from Magic of Eberron turns you into a living construct at level 10.

    Seconded. We all know casting progression is king in the char-op stakes, but GSA is no worse than any other 1/2 prog PrC. It's really designed with Gishes in mind rather than pure casters.

    Aside from the mechanical, I think it's a pretty cool PrC from a fluff & flavor standpoint.

    Greenstar Adept really doesn't look that bad. Also, Renegade Mastermaker looks pretty nice. Thanks guys!
