Homunculus

Description:

Homunculi are created through some unspecified alchemical method by mages in search of powerful, arcane secrets, but who have typically been cast out of their colleges or guilds for rejecting established magical protocols and standards in favour of wild experiments. While the vast majority of attempts to create life from nothing result in catastrophe or failure, occasionally, a diminutive abomination known as a Homunculus will form. Homunculi are diminutive creatures of limited physical capacity, never growing larger than an infant. They are vile and sickly creatures, and are often horribly deformed, who live their usually short lives in suffering. Homunculi are not helpless, however, and they are not to be trifled with. They are devious and cruel and will find joy in the suffering of others.

Special:

Homunculi are created using magical or alchemical processes, but unlike most other Automata, they are not affected by Dispel Magic. Physically weak, Homunculi prefer to fight using a few minor spells, which they can enhance with a few Class and Subclass Skills
