However, once it is infused with magical life, the Sentinel Construct operates with minimal direction, diligently executing its assigned duties. It is able to understand its creator\xe2\x80\x99s intent rather than rigidly adhering to the exact letter of their instructions. \n'b'  Skilled Combatants .

While it demonstrates a strategic approach to engagement, its intelligence does not extend to actions it could take to modify its surroundings or actively improve its defensive position.'
