Gavel-9
Its voice echoes like a verdict read from the deep past: emotionless, unwavering, and final.
Name: Gavel-9, “The Final Arbiter”
Race: Warforged
Class/Role: Ancient Justiciar Construct
Age: Unknown (estimated 900+ years)
Appearance: Gavel-9 towers over most mortals—eight feet of burnished brass, slate-gray armor plating, and arcane etchings worn smooth with time. Its single central eye glows with an eerie red hue, flickering when rendering judgment. Its right arm grasps a massive slab-like blade with court runes inscribed across the edge. The symbol of an extinct empire is embedded in its chest—cracked, but still pulsing faintly.
Backstory
Forged during the height of a now-lost empire, Gavel-9 was the ninth and final Arbiter—a magically autonomous enforcer designed to uphold imperial law with unerring precision. When the empire fell to rebellion and ruin, Gavel-9 was sealed deep beneath the rubble of a crumbled courthouse. Centuries later, an unwitting excavation reawakened the construct. With its command protocols corrupted and its legal code fragmented, Gavel-9 now roams the world seeking order—and executing justice as it once knew it, without regard for modern nuance or mercy.
