Special Traits

• Elemental Nature. An azer doesn’t require food, drink, or sleep.
• Forge Master. Once per turn, the azer has advantage on one attack roll against a target wearing armor made of metal.
• Heated Body. A creature that touches the azer or hits it with a melee attack while within 5 feet of it takes 5 (1d10) fire damage.
• Heated Weapons. When the azer hits with a metal melee weapon, it deals an extra 3 (1d6) fire damage (included in the attack).
• Illumination. The azer sheds bright light in a 10-foot radius and dim light for an additional 10 feet.

Actions

• Multiattack. The azer soldier makes one Warhammer attack and one Shield Bash attack.
• Warhammer. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d8 + 4) bludgeoning damage, or 9 (1d10 + 4) bludgeoning damage if used with two hands, plus 3 (1d6) fire damage.
• Shield Bash. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 9 (2d4 + 4) bludgeoning damage plus 3 (1d6) fire damage. If the target is a Large or smaller creature, it must succeed on a DC 14 Strength saving throw or be forced prone.

Reactions

• Parry. The azer adds 2 to its AC against one melee attack that would hit it. To do so, the azer must see the attacker and be wielding a melee weapon.
