Innate Spellcasting. The Mekhanite Laser Swarm's innate spellcasting ability is Intelligence (spell save DC 18, +10 to hit with spell attacks). The Mekhanite Laser Swarm can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:

1/day: Fire Shield

2/day: Heat Metal

3/day: Shield


Swarm. The swarm can occupy another creature's space and vice versa, and the swarm can move through any opening large enough for a Tiny insect. The swarm can't regain hit points or gain temporary hit points.

Actions

Melee Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, reach 0 ft., one target in the swarm's space. Hit: 10 4d4 piercing damage, or 5 2d4 piercing damage if the swarm has half of its hit points or fewer.

Laser Burst: The Mekhanite Laser Swarm casts Scorching Ray at 7th level. Each individual ray targets a different enemy target, starting from the top of initiative and going down. If there are more rays than enemies, The Mekhanite Laser Swarm loops back to target the top of initiative, spreading attacks equally amongst all available enemies.

The Mekhanite Laser Swarm aka. "Laser Bees" are a cloud of insect sized robots, each equipped with molecular agitation rays. These insects are programmed with Swarm Logic Programming, each individual contributing to the computational power of the swarm as a whole. The Target Acquisition and Extermination Protocols are very rigid, spreading its attack pattern out equally amongst all available enemies. These units are especially dangerous when multiple swarms are in coordination and focusing their fire on a small number of targets, as they can easily overwhelm targets with a hail of incendiary lasers from all directions.
