Jephrif Buffer

Buffers are a recent addition to the jephrif repertoire, being an option that wouldn't have been possible before the Descent. When the lack of properly durable options has been noted, research of the so-called 'armor' of other races began. Buffers are the rare jephrifs with more regard for self-preservation who agreed to be encased in lattice metal shells that would protect them from shattering attacks while being light enough to be lifted. Usually keeping their tendrils hidden away within the shell, Buffers fight with short spikes fixed to the outside or their armor, being the ones that can be more safely put between more vulnerable allies and enemies. Generally, though, a collision with a Buffer's armor hurts more than the mounted spikes.
