Note[edit]
This monster is balanced to fit in a high level of balance game. I have taken the liberty of not using the standard D&D rules for determining various statistics for this monster. As a result, it may seem a bit stronger (or weaker) than some SRD monsters of the same CR and that is fine. I think it will pose an appropriate challenge for characters of its CR.

A suit of black armor floats as if there were somebody inside it. Inside the helmet of this armor there is a red glow. It points its halberd in your direction with an emotionless, mechanical precision.
Plated spirits get their name from their construction. These simple constructs are built by binding weak fire elemental spirits into a suit of armor. With the binding ritual, several wards are created to keep the creature captured. Elementals seem to have a near limitless supply of energy and these constructs use that energy as a power source.
When a plated spirit is defeated, it and its equipment disintegrates into a fine dust. The bound fire elemental is consumed when this happens.
Combat[edit]
Plated spirits will try to engage targets in melee and take opportunities to make 5ft. steps. Although they lack an intelligence score, its magical construction allows it to act with the tactical insight of a trained guard. Most plated spirits will have simple instructions given that they will follow to the best of their abilities.
