Automs are a form of construct originally constructed by [[Colin Pendergras]] to serve and defend the city of [[Sneerwell]] in [[Isonhound]]. Years later he would begin to sell the designs across the realm. Where these designs differed from [[Warforged]] is that Autom’s are animated by a spirit from the outer planes bound into service by its creator in the shell of the Autom chasing. In a majority of situations the identity and personality of the spirit is suppressed as the Autom becomes completely subservient, but poor bindings or occasional malfunctions will cause the spirit to begin to regain its identity and become sentient. |
|||
Occasionally, an [[autom]] gains sentience and takes on adventures of its own. When playing as an autom, please follow the statistics below. |
|||
Even if the Autom becomes sentient, many of the bindings may have stripped away the memories of the spirit, leading many newly sentient Automs to go off on journeys of self discovery to either find their lost memories or to come to terms with their new existence. During the War of the Forge many free Automs suffered discrimination from other humanoids and joined the fight to secure their right to individuality. |
|||
Even when broken of their creator’s bonds, a Bluestone can still work on a sentient Autom. A Bluestone is a magical gem created by Colin Pendergras from sapphire and [[Wovenstone]] to forcefully control Automs. Many sentient Automs have spent their lives working to hunt down and destroy the remaining Bluestones to finally free their kind from servitude. |
