Magen

Magen, were green-skinned constructs created by the create magen spell. There were at least three known varieties found on Toril.

Description
While they appeared as humanoids with green skin, magen were not living beings but magical constructs. All of them had green skin and blood that appeared similar to liquid mercury.

Abilities
While they all shared similar characteristics, the powers of each magen varied depending on their type. All magen had inherent protection against magical spells and similar effects, and their bodies combusted into innocuous flames upon their death.

While all magen were able to understand the language(s) spoken by their creator, they were not granted the ability of speech.

Personality
Magen were formed with a sense of perfect obedience. They protected their creators and catered to their needs without question or delay.

Varieties
These magen were often outfitted with armor and weaponry, and relegated to the duties of guards and protectors.

History
The arcanists of ancient Netheril used magen as servants in a variety of different roles, including laborers, bodyguards, and personal attendants.
