Virtual Roadblocks [one-action] to [three-actions] (manipulate) The hardlight weaver creates a stationary medium ([one-action]), large ([two-actions]), or huge ([three-actions]) hardlight obstacle, the center of which must be within its digital reality aura.

The Virtual Roadblocks remain until the hardlight weaver uses this ability again or until its aura moves out of range, whichever comes first.

All Creatures in "Hardlight Life-Form"

Hardlight Life-Form

Unlike normal holograms, hardlight life-forms are tangible, living entities.

Hardlight Projectors

A hardlight projector typically uses the low defenses of a hazard of its level and is often integrated into other hazards. All hardlight life-forms have the following ability.

Tethered A hardlight life-form can't travel more than the indicated number of feet from its projector. A hardlight life-form reduced to 0 HP vanishes, though its projector reconstructs it in 1d4 hours. The only way to permanently destroy a hardlight lifeform is to find its projector and either repair or destroy it.

Mobile Projectors

While hardlight projectors are often fixed in place, mobility is sometimes required. To achieve that, projectors can be mounted on a range of mobile platforms, from stealth drones, to robots, and even vehicles or starships. With this technology, hardlight lifeforms can roam freely, captivating audiences with their mesmerizing displays.
