Elemental Origin
The Omgar originated in the Elemental Plane Of Fire, but
were driven to take refuge in the Material Plane after their
race suffered near extinction following a war fought against
the salamanders. The deserts of the material plane are a cool
retreat in comparison to the plane of fire and an Omgar can
live a comfortable life in even the most scorching of deserts.
Their deep red and calloused skin serves as the perfect
barrier against the harsh rays of the sun above. Their eyes are
spaced out across their oddly-shaped head and are covered in
a protective yellow film. This helped shield their eyes from
raining ash in the fire plane and now serves as an equally
adequate protection against gusts of sand whipped up by a
sandstorm.

their forces ahead of us and had cut us off, we had nowhere

noises. A series of high pitch screeches echoed throughout

off by the sounds. The dark elves seemed fairly confused as
well. It took only five seconds before the entire cavern had

Armorman.
Immortal Guardians
Since a Living Heirloom is immortal, it is likely for them to
outlive their families. A Living Heirloom without ties will
search for a new purpose, often finding a settlement to guard,
a new family to serve, or a group of adventurers to join. Their
loyal nature makes them stalwart allies and dependable
friends.
If news of a Living Heirloom spreads, it might catch the
attention of scholars and wizards keen to uncover the secrets
behind creating such loyal sentient constructs. Many Living
Heirloom's have been killed in unsuccessful experiments.
Living Heirloom Names
A Living Heirloom is often given a name or nickname after it
has awoken, dependent on the race or culture of the family it
has awoken around.

Subrace. The three main kinds of Living Heirloom are
Statue, Mannequin, or Armor Set. Choose one of these
subraces.
Statue
You have awoken within a stone statue. For a statue to awake,
it must have a head, body, arms, and legs. A Living Heirloom
of this kind is imbued with proficiency in a skill that it was
depicted as doing before it gained sentience.
Skillful Depiction. You gain proficiency in one skill of your
choice.
Stony Exterior. Your body is completely made from stone,
granting you a +1 bonus to Armor Class.
Mannequin
You gained your consciousness in the body of a mannequin.
You have sat idly through the years, modeling hundreds of
articles of clothing and wigs of all kinds. A Living Heirloom of
this kind is imbued with skill in disguise and subterfuge, ever-
changing their appearance and personality to suit the
occasion.
Verbal Avidity. You gain proficiency in one of the following
skills: Deception, Intimidation, Performance, or Persuasion.

proficiency you gained from this trait with one of the other
skills listed.

trait, using Charisma as your spell casting ability for it. You

finish a long rest.
Armor Set

your family. For a suit of armor to awake, it must be a suit of
full plate. A sentient suit of armor of this kind is imbued with
military prowess.
Innate Combat Prowess. You gain proficiency with one
martial weapon of your choice, and shields.
Fully Plated. Due to the fact that you are a sentient set of
armor, you are ill-suited to wearing additional armor.
However, you have a base AC of 16 (your Dexterity modifier
doesn't affect this number). You gain no benefits from wearing
additional armor, but if you are using a shield, you can apply
the shield's bonus as normal.

AC 16... but I'm a set of plate armor!
