According to the accepted answer that was written by Dinomaster to this question, the envoy warforged from Unearthed Arcana: Eberron Races can choose a vehicle for their integrated tool. However, on the table on page 154 of the Player’s Handbook, “Vehicles (land or water)” is listed as one type of tool.
So, question(s):
-
Can the warforged choose the vehicle type each time they use the ability(longboat, rowboat, etc.)
-
If the answer to the previous question is yes, does the warforged have to choose land or water vehicles at character creation, or can they use both interchangeably (because “Vehicles (land or water)” is listed as one type of tool, but uses “or”, which can be inclusive or exclusive)?
Best Answer
Yes, you have to choose one
You have to
That doesn’t let you choose a type of tool, you have to choose a specific singular tool from the type. “Vehicles” isn’t singular any more than “musical instruments” is singular. “A rowboat” or “a bagpipe” are singular options.
Your integrated tool is the specific one integrated at creation, not a transforming generic ability to manifest any kind of tool in a category.
If it said you could customise the specific tool on use instead of at character creation, it would say so.
