Constructs
Constructs. Be it iron, stone, wood or bone a Construct is a creature that is the result of forming and breathing life into a something created rather than born. There are many forms of Constructs as any material can be used to create one and unlike golems or elementals a Construct has it's own identity, bestowed upon it upon it's creation. The Constructs were created by a race centuries ago, they were built to be stronger and more efficient than a regular person and, depending on the material, survive dangerous environments. Their creators used them for everything and it made their lives easy. However after the volcanic winter the civilization was wiped out and the Constructs buried. All knowledge of the Constructs and their creators either faded away or became rumor. Some have tried to recreate them but no one knows the secret to their free will. But with recent digging of old ruins pieces of Constructs were dug up until one day they awoke those that had survived.
Rules: 1- Constructs can be made of any craftable material such as wood, stone, iron or glass. They will therefore be weak to anything that can destroy this material, so be realistic.
2- Since they have no actual organs Constructs don't drink, breath or eat and are immune to disease.
3- Being made for labor a Construct is stronger than a human, but that strength depends on the durability of the material it is made from. Again be realistic.
4- Constructs can't have babies. They may appear male or female but they are basically just living dolls.
5- Healing magics won't work on them. The only way for a Construct to heal is to repair itself with whatever in is made from. All Constructs know how to do this but the material has to be readily available and they have to have the means to work with it. Though if they have no arms they can ask someone to do it for them if they are skilled enough.
6- Having a free will defines a Construct from a golem. They understand emotions and though they won't actually feel pain it is still there. So an axe blow will hurt a Construct but it is more mental than physical pain. If you stuck a knife in there back they'd hardly notice until you point it out.
7- All Constructs are very old and relatively immortal. There are no new ones.
Weaknesses: 1- Anything your material is weak against so are you.
2- No auto-Healing. Wounds are permanent unless you repair them.
3- Though immortal their material will degrade over time.
4- Have no magical ability. They are born from magic, any use of it will turn them into a husk.
