Modrons
- Type: Medium / Large Construct

Modrons are bizarre, mechanical beings that live in the plane of order, Mechanus. They are living constructs that follow a strict hierarchy and show absolute obedience to their divine ruler, Primus.
Modrons look like geometric shapes with mechanical limbs – from the simple monodrones (one-eyed spheres with arms and legs) to the complex pentadrones, which resemble walking stars.
Each modron can only communicate with directly superior or subordinate modrons, often leading to absurd misunderstandings. They are rarely seen outside of Mechanus unless they have a special order.
Some have also fallen out of order due to a flaw in their system and have been banished. Despite their cool, logical nature, modrons can create chaos when they enter the “unpredictable” world of mortals.
