Jetpack Tackle [two-actions] Using a built-in thruster pack, the animated armor Strides and then attempts a Shove, moving with the target on a success or critical success.

Animated Object

Objects can be animated in multiple ways for a variety of functions. Since ancient times, weapons and armor have been given life as guardians and sentries through magic or ritual.

Animating Objects

Most animated objects encountered by adventurers are permanently ambulatory creatures given life through arcane rituals, holy energy, or haunting influences. Sometimes, however, creatures with telekinetic energy are able to move objects in ways such that they appear to be animated objects.
