"Hanamar" (Colossus WX-42) stands at the bottom of
WARFORGED C OLOSSUS
I n the final days o f the Last War, House Cannith un­
leashed its mightiest creations: the warforged colossi.
These enormous mechanical warriors thundered across
Cyre, crushing everything in their paths and leaving
ruin behind them. Meant to end the war decisively, the
colossi pulverized hundreds of �oldiers beneath their
feet and incinerated whole legions with beams of fiery
light that shot from their mouths. This rampage was cut
short on the Day of Mourning. The arcane cataclysm
that engulfed Cyre destroyed most of the warforged co­
lossi, causing them to collapse into lifeless heaps.
Colossal Survivors. Some warforged colossi survived
the Day of Mourning more or less intact and are thought
to only be in stasis, waiting to be awakened. Cannith
artificers are eager to track them down and determine
whether they can be awakened or, at the very least,
salvaged for docents and other magic items. Here are
locations where operational warforged colossi are ru­
mored to dwell:
• "Arkus" (Colossus WX-11) lies prone at the bottom of
the Glowing Chasm in the northern part of the Mourn­
land, with one of its arms torn off.
• "Artorok" (Colossus WX-73) sits at the bottom of Lake
Cyre amid the scaffolding of a sunken House Cannith
workshop, flooded but otherwise intact.

Kraken Bay, near the coast of Va!enar, buried up to its
knees in sand and flooded, but it is otherwise intact.
"Karrnslayer" (Colossus WX-31) lost its legs but
crawls through the Mournland, using its arms to
drag its great bulk across the ground. It is always
prone and can't use its Stomp action, but makes three
extra turret attacks when it takes the Multiattack ac­
tion option.
• "Landro" (Colossus WX-33) is partially phased into a
mountainside on the border of Cyre and Breland, but
still explorable and potentially salvageable.
• "Norr" (Colossus WX-5) is slumped amid the ruins of
Metro!, the former capital of Cyre.
• "Tymber" (Colossus WX-12) squats in the Crawling
Swamp, in the northwest corner of the Shadow
Marches. How it got there, no one knows.
Hollow Structure. Although it can operate without a
crew, a warforged colossus is built to carry wizards, ar­
tificers, magewrights, and elite troops. For this reason,
these constructs are largely hollow on the inside, with
tunnels, ladders, storage areas, and observation decks .
A colossus might be filled with monsters and secrets,
in addition to the corpses of those who died inside it.
In chapter 4, map 4.8 illustrates an inactive warforged
colossus, and the text that accompanies it explains how
the colossus might serve as an adventure location.
ACT I O N S
Multiattack. The colossus makes three attacks-one with its
slam and two with its eld ritch tu rrets-and then uses Stomp.
Slam. Melee Weapon Attack: + 1 8 to h it, reach 20 ft., one target.
Hit: 29 (3d l 2 + 1 0) bludgeon ing damage, and the coloss us can
push the ta rget up to 20 feet away from it.
CHA Eldritch Turret. Ranged Spell Attack: +18 to h it, range 300 ft.,
8 (-1)
one target. Hit: 1 8 (4d8) force damage, and ifthe target i s a
creature, it is knocked prone.
Stomp. The colossus stomps one of its feet at a point on the
ground within 20 feet of it. Any creature i n a 20-foot-radius,
20-foot-high cylinder centered on this point must succeed on
a DC 26 Dexterity saving th row or take 33 (6d l 0) bludgeoning
damage and fal l prone. U ntil the colossus uses its Stomp again
o r moves, the creature is restrai ned. While restrained i n this
way, the creature (or another creature within 5 feet of it) can
use its action to make a DC 26 Strength check. On a success,
the creature relocates to an u noccu pied space of its choice
with in 5 feet of the colossus and is no longer restrai ned.
Structures, as well as nonmagical objects that are neither be­
a saving ing worn nor carried, take the same amo u nt of damage if they
are in the cyli nder (no save).
Incinerating Beam (Recharge 5-6). The colossus fi res a beam
of l ight in a 1 50-foot l i ne that i s 1 0 feet wide. Each creature
in the l i ne m ust make a DC 26 Dexterity saving th row, taking
60 (l l d l O) rad iant damage on a fai led save, o r half as m uch
damage on a successful one. A creature reduced to 0 hit points
by this beam is disi ntegrated, leaving behind anything it was
wearing or carrying.
