Animate

The animate are a race of animated objects, brought to life through powerful necromancy. Despite their dark origin the species has moved on in their history, leaving the dark lord who created them behind.   They can be made from any material, such as objects, plants, or even the undead. They possess a unique blend of physical and magical abilities.   The Animate are strange and mysterious. They come in all shapes and sizes from the lumbering golem made of stone to the swift and deadly zombie to a wizards hat, moving silently and on its own as if propelled by magic. Despite the reputation animate are just as diverse in their backgrounds, alignments, and composition as any other race.
