Homebrew Awakened Relic Species Details

A slumbering blade in the tomb of a great warrior, a set of thieves’ tools that just can’t stand the idea of trespassing, and a small wooden doll with a knack for performing; what do these have in common? Once inanimate objects now given sentience. Their minds awakened, if you will.
