Gift of the Machine Godess. As a creature of ancient arcana (technology), Metatron gains many damage and condition resistances and immunities, but they are also susceptible to electrical attacks:
- Automatically gains a proficiency or feat as needed though he can only have one new ability active at any given time. He does this as part of short rest downloading the knowledge he needs from the noosphere to finish a mission at hand.
- Is combat-hardened and has a damage threshold equal to half his CR rounded down; that is, it reduces all individual attacks by the threshold numbers damage. Metatron has a damage threshold of 9.
- Has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on sight or sound and has double proficiency bonus in the Perception skill as it constantly scans its surroundings for danger.
- All robots have a weakness to lightning-based damage. They have disadvantage on saving throws against attacks that do lightning damage and on a natural 1 are stunned until the end of his next turn.
- Robots built by the Ancients were built to last. Each has a continuous reanimation protocol active which heals/mends the robot a number of hit points equal to its CR (minimum of 1) per round. This ability ceases to function when the robot is reduced to 0 hit points. Metatron regenerates 18 hit points at the start of his turn.
- Magical lightning damage slows him until the end of his next round, with no saving throw. If hasted, magical lightning attacks instead negate the haste effect.
- Dispel Magic negates his Impeded Magic ability for 1d4 rounds.
Actions
Multiattack. Metatron makes two melee weapon attacks. Megidolaon Clawed Gauntlet. Melee Weapon Attack: 1d20+13 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 22 ( 4d6+7 ) slashing damage plus 27 ( 6d8 ) radiant damage (average total: 49). If the target is Chaotic in alignement, it does an additional 7 ( 2d6 ) slashing damage. Mahamaon Energy Whip. Melee Weapon Attack: 1d20+13 to hit (ignores armor), reach 15 ft., one target. Hit: 42 ( 8d8+7 ) radiant damage. If the target is a creature that has 100 hit points or fewer, it must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or die, and the target must succeed on a DC 20 Strength saving throw or be pulled up to 25 feet toward Metatron. Razorwings. Melee Weapon Attack: 1d20+13 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 22 ( 4d6+8 ) slashing damage and scores a critical hit on a 19 or 20. On a critical hit, the wings do an additional 32 slashing damage. Fire of Sinai (Recharges 5-6). Purifying mult-melta cannons emerge from Metatron's shoulders which unleash a torrent of liquid radiation. The torrent spews forth in a 60-foot cone. Each creature in that area must make a DC 21 Dexterity saving throw, taking 45 ( 10d8 ) poison (radiation) damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. A creature reduced to zero hit points by this attack is utterly destroyed, and its soul is claimed by UNITY.
BONUS ACTIONS
Healing Touch (4/Day). Metatron touches another creature. The target magically regains 40 ( 8d8+4 ) hit points and is freed from any curse, disease, poison, blindness, or deafness. Summon Angel (1/Day). Metatron by force of will can automatically summon 1d3+1 platinum empyreans (treat as Deva, but with the subtype of robot). The summoned robot appears in an unoccupied space within 60 feet of him, acts as an ally of, and can’t summon other demons. It remains indefinitely until it or Metatron dies, or until Metatron dismisses it as a free action.Reactions
Razor. When Metatron is hit by an attack he may make a razorwing attack against the triggering attacker.
Legendary Actions
Metatron can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action option can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature's turn. He regains spent legendary actions at the start of his turn.
- Teleport. Metatron magically teleports, along with any equipment he is wearing or carrying, up to 120 feet to an unoccupied space he can see.
- Blinding Gaze. Metatron targets all creatures he can see within 30 feet of him. If the targets can see him, the target must succeed on a DC 21 Constitution saving throw or be blinded until magic such as the lesser restoration spell removes the blindness.
- Searing Burst (Costs 2 Actions). Metatron emits magical, divine energy. Each creature of his choice in a 10-foot radius must make a DC 23 Dexterity saving throw, taking 14 (4d6) fire damage plus 14 (4d6) radiant damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Lair Actions
On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), Metatron takes a lair action to cause one of the following effects; Metatron can’t use the same effect two rounds in a row. All of Luna Castellum is considered his lair:
- Automated Laz-Cannons pop out of cunningly hidden recesses in the roof and spray the area with gunfire. They are superhumanly accurate and only hit enemy creatures. Each creature in the room must make a DC 15 Dexterity save or take 12 ( 4d6 ) radiant damage.
- The area is flooded with noqual infused gas. All spellcasters must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or lose a randomly memorized spell (or a random spell slot for spontaneous casters like sorcerers).
- One creature Metatron can see within 60 feet of him must succeed on a DC 15 Charisma saving throw or be banished to the Matrix - a digital plane - a different plane of existence UNITY has programmed into being. To escape, the creature must use its action to make a DC 15 Charisma ability check. If the creature wins, it escapes the digital plane. Otherwise, the effect ends on initiative count 20 on the next round. When the effect ends, the creature reappears in the space it left or in the nearest unoccupied space if that one is occupied.
Metatron resides in Luna Castellum (Luna, or the Moon of Earth) the home of his goddess UNITY. He sits at the nerve center of those ancient ruins surrounded by magical divination screens (monitors) which he observes and directs UNITY’s faithful. If challenged by foolish adventures in his sanctum - the Temple of Eternity - every construct on the level or servant of UNITY will arrive to aide him within 1d4 rounds (combat timer).
Suggested Environments
Metatron can be found protecting UNITY’s the Golden Goddesses' Luna Castellum domain or around the multiverse on missions for his mistress
