Despite their recent relevance, word spreads very quickly that an automaton is roaming the streets. For many cultures and societies, science and technology have not yet come as far as to imitate life in such a way, without the aid of magic or gods. In the grand-scheme of things, automatons are a relatively new creation. An automaton designed to carry large crates might not have fingers at all. An automaton design to fire a bow, will only have the fingers necessary to fire a bow. When an automaton is made with a specific purpose, such as carrying crates or firing a weapon, their hands will be crafted to only do those things. Normally only the chin and lower lip move to simulate speech. Automatons very rarely have moving eyebrows, or cheeks. The faces of automatons struggle to show emotion, this is mirrored by the automatons inability to feel emotion. The heads and faces of the automatons are surrounded by the same material, but do not compare as well to real-life faces as the bodies do. These sheets can be made from any range of metals from iron, to bronze, brass, silver or even (in rare cases) adamantine. The metal sheets are not connected in places like the abdominal section of the torso or shoulders, but slide over each other to allow joint movement. This outer layer, or "metal skin", will emulate that of a male or female body, shaped to the creators wishes. Designed to imitate skin as well as protecting the automaton's insides. Most often, automatons have a thin outer layer of metal sheets that hide the inner-workings of the machine. More often than not, automatons built for intimate relations have over exaggerated body parts, large genitalia, over sized breasts and buttocks, these automatons are the most frowned upon. In rare cases, automatons are constructed for personal purposes, such as a friend, companion or even an intimate partner, these Automatons are crafted to embody to most appealing physical appearance of either gender of any race desired. automatons built this way have thick-built muscular bodies, modeled in the way of half-orcs, dwarves or brawny humans. Alternatively, an automaton may be made with protection, defense or offence as the main priority. If an automaton was design for infiltration, assassination or quick escapes, they will sport an agile, athletic body Akin to that of an Elf, or Halfling. This is not the case if the automaton is made for a specific purpose, of course. Usually the body and general appearance of the automaton is based off the race of the creator(s). If they want a nimble spy, the automaton may be modeled after a halfling.Īs stated before, every automaton is created by a person, or even a team of people. However, if the creator wants a strong servant, they may be modeled after an orc, or a half-orc. Automatons can be modeled after any of the races, usually human or elf is the standard choice. Depending on the creator, an automaton may have a very life-like face or a single curved surface with holes where the optical sensors reside. Gears and cogs turn within their carapaces. Created not by a god, not by magic, but by pure science, an automaton is a construct designed to emulate life.
