I can’t find this information anywhere, and I’m surprised that nobody has brought it up. In the Eberron Races UA, the Warforged Envoy can have a tool integrated into its body. It even gives an example of Masque, a Warforged built with an integrated Disguise Kit, who is a Rogue and an assassin.
My question is, can a Warforged use a Disguise Kit to pass himself off as a human?
I’m currently creating a Warforged Artificer, and I want him to be able to pass himself off as human. He can use Disguise Self, and Alter self later, and can eventually get a Hat of Disguise, but we are starting at lvl 1, and what I basically want is that he was created to be The Terminator. He disguises himself as human, or humanoid, and gets into his target’s home base, and then breaks out the big guns (going with Artillerist for blasty power) to eliminate his target.
Or at least, that’s what he was designed to do. He grew a consciousness, and then a conscience, and escaped his creators. (The setting is not Eberron, it’s a home brew setting.)
The developers said that the tools could be different than the usual tools, they just function the same way. Would having a shapeshifting skin like the T-X work in this case? Or would you, as the DM, not allow the disguise to work? I’m thinking he needs a variation of the Charleton Background so he can have a ready made disguise, and he will likely take the Actor Feat at some point, assuming I roll his stats well enough to warrant that.
(Note, I know an Assassin Rogue would be more thematic, but I like the idea of him having a ton of gadgets and gizmos that people see as magic. Thorn Whip grappling hook, Disguise Self holo emitters, Fire Ball grenade launcher...)
