Before I update, any ideas about the weight?
They're man-sized, but not always man-shaped, so I would think something like 150 to 250 pounds would be OK.
Actually, didn't we decide that the alignment should be "always lawful, often good" rather than "often neutral"?
If I recall accurately, we went for neutral because of their "if in doubt, kill the intruder" ethos.
Tactics: A busen will never attack without warning, instead always challenging potential opponents and providing them an opportunity to explain themselves. The busen the proceeds to a more thorough questioning and examination; those deemed satisfactory are allowed to proceed. However, any creature that attacks a busen or demonstrates clearly evil tendencies is met with force.
In combat, a busen uses its malleable form to adjust tactics as necessary, changing weapons as needed to affect any given opponent, although an individual busen may have a favored form for its weaponlike protrusions It will resort to its whirling frenzy only when both the busen and its opponents are all sorely wounded.
Most of that first paragraph could go in Background rather than its Combat tactics.
The original text says that buseni will do their best to kill any creature that attacks them. We need to work that in there somehow.
