Homebrew Cauldronfolk Species Details

Cauldronfolk first appeared in Obojima as witches needed to easily create potions while travelling the island. As years have passed, methods to create Cauldronfolk have spread beyond the covens to the citizens of Obojima. As a result, there have been a recent surge in the appearance of the species. 

Common uses for the Cauldronfolk include potion creation, cooking meals,  purifying water, hauling goods, grinding ingredients, protecting their creators, and even containing the Corruption.

Cauldronfolk are either small or medium in size, depending on the object used to create them. Their physical features may vary depending on the material they're made of, but they often have arms & legs resembling humanoids. They are often made of stone, metal, wood, pumpkins, glass, or even first-age technology. Even the most brittle of materials in their bodies become incredibly sturdy when these creatures are made, as the magic of the island reinforces them. They never hunger and rarely tire. Most work for their creators or prepare food for festivals, but those that don't are heavily scouted by the Courier Brigade for their ability to protect goods

As Constructs, Cauldronfolk don’t age, and mature as soon as they are created.
