SPECIAL ABILITIES

Azlanti Programming (Ex) A battle robot’s programming is so meticulous that it is incapable of attacking an Azlanti human. However, its sensors aren’t foolproof and a creature can deceive the robot with a successful Disguise check.

Disintegrator Beam (Ex) A battle robot has a disintegrator beam as a natural weapon built into one of its arms. This beam has a range increment of 30 feet and prevents the robot from wielding any other weapon that requires two hands.

Embedded Aeon Stone (Ex) As a full action, an aeon stone can be slotted into (or removed from) a battle robot’s forehead while the robot is helpless, pinned, or willing. The robot gains the benefit of a slotted aeon stone provided the stone’s item level is no greater than the robot’s CR + 1.

Self-Destruct (Ex) When a battle robot’s Hit Points are reduced to 10 or fewer, it explodes on its next turn in a 10-foot-radius burst, even if it has already been destroyed. Creatures within range take 3d6 piercing damage (Reflex DC 14 half). As a full action that provokes attacks of opportunity, a creature adjacent to the robot can attempt a DC 24 Engineering check to disarm the self-destruct mechanism before it detonates.

ECOLOGY

Environment any urban
Organization solitary, pair, or patrol (3–7)

Their unwavering loyalty and disposability, coupled with their propensity to self-destruct amid enemy soldiers, makes battle robots invaluable on the battlefield. A battle robot stands 7 feet tall and weighs 500 pounds.
