Give it DR 10/good and silver. Being Incorporeal will prevent 50% of all hits anyway, and having full cover (see below) will prevent most damage when it's in an object.2) Give it the ability to Posess Object (Su). A posessed object is of type Construct, and provides the Posessor with full cover. Posessed objects gain the [Evil] subtype while being posessed, but only the following effects are transmitted back to the Posessor: Holy Word, Dismissal/Banishment, Dispel Evil, Holy Smite, and maybe Smite Evil.3) Posessed objects gain these properties: considered Magic and Evil for penetrating DR, gain the Ghost Touch special ability, and benefit from the Posessor's Deflection bonus to AC (part of the Incorporeal sub-type).4) Object posessed is otherwise treated as an Animated Object (see MM-3.5e).That'll bring your good ideas into line with core mechanics, so DMs have less to learn. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Hope this helps, -- N</blockquote>
