3rd level Nightstalker Artifice feature.

Also see: 5e:Scout Construct

Your magical tinkering has allowed you to construct a Scout Construct. It is friendly to you and your companions, and it obeys your commands. See this creature's game statistics in the steel defender stat block. You determine the creature's appearance; your choice has no effect on its game statistics.

In combat, the scout construct shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It can move and use its reaction on its own, but the only action it takes on its turn is the Dodge or Help action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command it to take one of the actions in its stat block or the Dash, Disengage, Help, Hide, or Search action.

If the mending spell is cast on it, it regains 2d6 hit points. If it has died within the last hour, you can use your smith's tools as an action to revive it, provided you are within 5 feet of it and you expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher. The scout construct returns to life after 1 minute with all its hit points restored.

At the end of a long rest, you can create a new scout construct if you have your smith's tools with you. If you already have a scout construct from this feature, the first one immediately perishes.

Outside of combat, the scout may be sent up to 5 miles from the artificer to scout terrain, search for and spy upon an individual, or other related activities for up to 24 hours before returning.

Extra Attack

5th level Nightstalker Artifice feature.
You can attack twice, rather than once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn. 

Iron Resolve

9th level Nightstalker Artifice feature.
You gain proficiency is Wisdom saving throw. If you already have proficiency in this, you gain proficiency in your choice of either Intelligence or Charisma saving throws. 

Turn Creatures of Enmity

9th level Nightstalker Artifice feature.
Starting at 10th you gain the ability to turn creatures of enmity. As an action, you present your holy symbol or item that is a bane to the creature (wolf's bane, cold iron, silver, etc.) and verbally censure the creature of enmity. Each creature of enmity that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw (DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Wisdom modifier). If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned. This lasts for 1 minute, or until it takes any damage.

A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can’t willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can’t take reactions. For its action, it can use only the dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there’s nowhere to move, the creature can use the dodge action.

Once nightstalker uses this feature, he/she may not use it again until he/she finishes a short or long rest. 

Additional Scout

15th level Nightstalker Artifice feature.
When you create a scout construct using the Construct Scout feature, you may create and maintain two scout constructs instead of one.
