Tallow Guardian

A lumbering sentinel of rendered fat and wax, the tallow guardian stands watch where no living thing should. Fire only makes it harder to break, while cold leaves it sluggish and dripping.

Melt If a tallow guardian takes any fire damage, its body melts somewhat and becomes even more difficult to damage. Until the end of its next turn, its resistance to slashing and piercing damage increases to 10, and its resistance to bludgeoning damage increases to 5.

Slowed by Cold If a tallow guardian takes any cold damage, it loses the benefits granted by melt and becomes slowed 1.
