Orange Hard Light Constructs (Requires Ranged Proficiency, Remote Control Proficiency) - 1200 OM
The Orange Light of avarice desire knows no limitations.
Shang may use the power of the ring to summon a being of orange hard light or to imbue a dead corpse with orange hard light. Beings summoned from hard light tend to resemble souls that Shang has collected. Both function exactly the same and have the same strengths and limitations. The only difference is willing a dead corpse back to life tends to startled its former friends more.
These constructs are weak and lack any true combat skill, but are controlled remotely by Shang and can be deceptively dangerous, capable of slowing down enemies and performing an unliving shield against anyone attempting to get close to the sorcerer. They are capable of using basic weaponry, such as swords and bows, but do so with all the grace of an untrained peasant, and about the same level of physical strength to boot.
Compared to a prime, the orange constructs are very weak, with a prime being more than capable of destroying one of them with a single casual strike, and due to their weakened muscles, they're incapable of doing any serious damage to primes without repeated clean blows. Any constructs using a ranged weapon is limited to merely thirty feet of range due to their physicality.
The constructs take roughly five seconds to fully summon, which takes the majority of Shang’s concentration. He can direct his other constructs during this time but must stay rooted in one place, ring aimed toward a target or a spot on the ground, and cannot move, cast spells, or make any use of his enhanced senses until he is finished. Attempting to do any of these for a split second will stop his spellcasting and cause him to lose the energy he was using to create the constructs. Being physically struck will also cause his spellcasting to fail, regardless of if he was moved or distracted by it.
The constructs are a small drain on Shang to summon, each one requiring a small amount of his energy to initially summon, though none to maintain. Actually controlling the constructs requires a degree of concentration; as he must control them manually, it makes it more difficult to move, aim or generally focus on other attacks. This effect is more pronounced as he summons more constructs; directing ten constructs requires his entire concentration, leaving him unable to move or do almost anything else.
At maximum, Shang can summon ten constructs at once. If he attempts to summon more than that, one of the constructs he is currently controlling will simply shatter into dust, before it's remnants fade away.
