Seeker, warforged battle smith

As I mentioned last week, I’ve finally got to make a warforged character for an Eberron game, and only 18 or so years after buying the original campaign setting book when it arrived in 2004…

Anyway, here’s a bit about Seeker. Any tips and recommendations are more than welcome!

Background: Soldier
Personality traits:
Nothing can shake my optimistic attitude.
I always want to know how things work and what makes people tick.
Ideals:
Freedom. Everyone should be free to pursue their own livelihood. (Chaotic)
People. I’m committed to the people I care about, not to ideals. (Neutral)
Nation. My people are all that matter. (Any)

Bonds:
I want to find my mentor, who disappeared on an expedition some time ago.
My honor is my life.
Flaws:
When given the choice of going left or right, I always go left.
I often misread emotional cues.

Seeker is a towering robot close to seven feet tall, heavy with metal and hardwood. Faint lights in his green glass eyes almost resemble a pupil. He usually travels with the glyph on his forehead partially covered.

Pooky, steel defender
Medium construct, she/her
AC 15, speed 40 ft., hitpoints 20

Saves: DEX +3, CON +4
Skills: Athletics +4, Perception +4
Damage immunities: poison
Condition immunities: charmed, exhaustion, poisoned

Vigilant: can’t be surprised

Actions:
Force-empowered Rend, melee attack +3, 1d8+2 force damage.
Repair (3/day) restores 2d8+2 hitpoints to itself or another construct within 5 feet.
Reactions:
Deflect attack, imposes disadvantage on an attack roll of one creature against a creature that isn’t the steel defender.

Pooky is a strange hybrid of a baboon and lion. She has no obvious facial features but a large maw of sharp teeth opens in the center of her mane of sensory wires.
