Traits

Magic Resistance. Kū has Advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

Work Becomes Order. Allies within 60 feet have Advantage on ability checks using tools and cannot be Frightened while taking part in a coordinated task directed by Kū.

Governance of Kū. Kū immediately knows when a creature within 120 feet knowingly breaks an oath or command it has formally sworn to obey.

Master of Industry. Kū is proficient with every weapon and tool. Weapons he wields count as magical.

Actions

Multiattack. Kū makes four Weapon of Work attacks.

Weapon of Work. Melee Weapon Attack: +21 to hit, reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 33 (4d10 + 11) weapon damage plus 18 (4d8) Force damage.

Set the Line (Recharge 5–6). Up to six allies within 120 feet may move up to half their Speed and take the Dodge or Help action as a Reaction. Hostile creatures within 30 feet of one or more of those allies make a DC 28 Wisdom saving throw or become Frightened until the end of their next turn.

Break What Was Built (1/Day). Kū targets one structure, siege engine or magical barrier within 180 feet. It takes 120 Force damage, ignoring resistance and immunity from non-divine sources. An artifact or divine construction instead takes 60 Force damage.

Legendary Actions

• Advance. Kū moves up to half his Speed without provoking Opportunity Attacks.
• Tool or Weapon. Kū makes one Weapon of Work attack.

The Work Continues. The first time Kū reaches 0 hit points, he instead regains 355 hit points. Allies of his choice within 120 feet may stand if Prone, end the Frightened condition and immediately take the Help action.

5.5e check: Weapon of Work averages 51 damage. Four attacks average 204 damage before Legendary Actions. Attack +21 equals Strength +11 plus PB +10; command save DC 28 uses Charisma +10 and PB +10.
