==Racial Traits== 
</noinclude>
* {{Property Link|Racial Ability Adjustments|SRD:Constitution|- Constitution}}, {{Property Link|Racial Ability Adjustments|SRD:Intelligence|+2 Intelligence}}, {{Property Link|Racial Ability Adjustments|SRD:Wisdom|-2 Wisdom}}:  The base traits of the seppia show its intelligence, even if they are a bit too curious for their own good.  Their physical scores are overrode by the presence of the SOLO Gear.  Indeed, depending on which gear they choose they gain new score adjustments.  In all cases, with their golem suits acting as life support they do not effectively have a [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]] score.
: * ''Social SOLO'': &minus;2 [[SRD:Strength|Strength]], +2 [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]]
: * ''Utility SOLO'': +2 [[SRD:Dexterity|Dexterity]], &minus;2 [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]]
: * ''Combat SOLO'': +2 [[SRD:Strength|Strength]],  &minus;2 [[SRD:Dexterity|Dexterity]]
* {{Property Link|Type|SRD:Construct Type|Construct}} ({{Property Link|Subtype|Gear (3.5e Creature Subtype)|Gear}}, {{Property Link|Subtype|Xenotheric (3.5e Creature Subtype)|Xenotheric}}):  The organic insides are buried deep under layers of gears and animated stone, metal, and plastics.  The construction is very alien, but still operates under the same basic principles of a golem.  Unlike most xenotherics, they do not possess telepathy.
* {{Property Link|Size|SRD:Medium|Medium}}: As Medium creatures, seppia have no special bonuses or penalties due to their size. 
* Seppia [[base land speed]] is 30 feet.
* Bio-Energy ([[Ex]]): As xenotheric creatures a seppia has a pool of [[Xenotheric (3.5e Creature Subtype)#Bio-Energy|bio-energy]] which it can employ for various purposes.  Unlike normal, their bio-energy is based on their [[SRD:Intelligence|Intelligence]] score.
* SOLO Gear Body: The body is in effect, the seppia, for to lose the body is to die.  Choose a Social, Utility, or Combat body on character creation.  While it is possible to change SOLOs mid-life, this is typically not done.  There is a strong magical bond between Seppia and pilot.  Assuming that another body type is available and they can get to a pressurized zone for transfer, the process costs 100 XP per HD to re-link to a new frame.  Thus is is done very rarely.
* Accustomed with dealing with temperature threats on terrestrial worlds the SOLOs automatically come packed with the [[Varia Skin (3.5e Feat)|Varia Skin]] feat, thus starting with resistance to fire and cold 10, and +2 saves against fire and cold.
* [[SRD:Darkvision|Darkvision]]: Seppia can see in the dark up to 60 feet. Darkvision is black and white only, but it is otherwise like normal sight, and seppia can function just fine with no light at all. 
* [[SRD:Low-Light Vision|Low-Light Vision]]. 
* Natural Armor: Being composed of steel and stone, seppia have +3 to their natural armor.
* Racial Hit Dice: A seppia begins with three levels of [[SRD:Construct Type|construct]], which provide 3d10 Hit Dice, a base attack bonus of +2, and base saving throw bonuses of [[SRD:Fortitude|Fort]] +1, [[SRD:Reflex|Ref]] +1, and [[SRD:Will|Will]] +1.
* Racial Skills: A seppia’s [[SRD:Construct Type|construct]] levels have been modified to give it skill points equal to 6 x (4 + Int modifier). Its may select any eight skills as class skills.
* Racial Feats: A seppia's [[SRD:Construct Type|construct]] levels give it two feats.  Unlike most [[SRD:Construct Type|constructs]] they are proficient in simple weapons and light armor.
* Racial Traits: As xenotheric gears, the seppia possess the following traits.  No [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]] score, 50% [[SRD:Fortification|fortification]], resistance to [[SRD:Fire Effect|fire]] and [[SRD:Cold Effect|cold]] 10, +2 saves vs [[SRD:Fire Effect|fire]] and [[SRD:Cold Effect|cold]], immunity to [[SRD:Poison|poison]], [[SRD:Sleep|sleep]] effects, [[SRD:Paralyzed|paralysis]], [[SRD:Stunned|stunning]], [[SRD:Disease|disease]], [[SRD:Death Effect|death]] effects, and [[SRD:Necromancy School|necromancy]] effects, [[SRD:Nonlethal Damage|nonlethal damage]], [[SRD:Ability Damaged|ability damage]], [[SRD:Ability Drained|ability drain]], [[SRD:Fatigued|fatigue]], [[SRD:Exhausted|exhaustion]], or [[SRD:Energy Drained|energy drain]].  In addition they gain +20 HP for being a [[medium]] [[SRD:Construct Type|construct]].  However, unlike most constructs they may be revived as normal, perish at -10 HP like living creatures (although they automatically [[SRD:Stable|stabilize]] when dying), they are not immune to mind-affecting effects having a sapient brain behind their activities, and they are not immune to effects which require a [[SRD:Fortitude|Fortitude]] save, but do use their [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]] score in place of [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]] for the purposes of [[Fortitude]] saves.  They appear to have some sort of slow auto-repair, allowing them to heal through resting, but they remain immune to positive and negative energy and thus require repair spells or suitable craft checks (as [[SRD:Craft Construct|Craft Construct]]) to heal faster.
* Arcane Blast ([[Sp]]):  Inherent to the seppia, they can weave magical energy as if it were clay.  They may shoot energy with the SOLO Gears as their medium as a ranged touch attack out to 60 ft as a standard action.  Arcane Blast counts as eldritch blast for feats and pre-requisites.  It deals 1d6 damage plus +2d6 damage every odd HD beyond 3rd, with an additional effect depending on the element chosen.
: *[[SRD:Fire Effect|Fire]] gains +2 damage per die.
: *[[SRD:Cold Effect|Cold]] gains +2 damage per die.
: *[[SRD:Electricity Effect|Electric]] gains +4 to hit against targets wearing metal armor or composed of metal.
: *[[SRD:Acid Effect|Acid]] burns for half damage next round after a successful hit.
: *[[SRD:Sonic Effect|Sonic]] loses -1 damage per die (minimum 1).
* All seppia regardless of frame get +2 to [[SRD:Knowledge Skill|Knowledge]] Arcana and [[SRD:Spellcraft Skill|Spellcraft]] checks.
* Social Gear seppia gain an additional +2 on any two [[SRD:Wisdom|Wisdom]] or [[SRD:Charisma|Charisma]]-based [[SRD:Skills|skills]].
* Utility Gear seppia gain an additional +2 on any two [[SRD:Dexterity|Dexterity]] or [[SRD:Intelligence|Intelligence]]-based skills.
* Combat Gear seppia gain an additional +2 on any two [[SRD:Strength|Strength]], [[SRD:Dexterity|Dexterity]], or [[SRD:Constitution|Constitution]]-based [[SRD:Skills|skills]].
