Homebrew Black Mage Species Details

Black mages, are autonomous, man-sized magician dolls with faces that are dark with two glowing eyes, always wear the distinctive steepled hat as a clothing item of choice to cover their faces. Black mages are created from Mist to be the soulless magical arm of their master. They are similar to familiars or Warforge in being artificially produced organisms, but they can gain the ability to move as well as do and perform on their own. 

The black mages appear to be born without a will and mind of their own, and passively obey their masters' orders. It is unclear as to how aware they are of themselves and their surroundings at this initial stage, as the black mages are unresponsive and keep going on about their work uninterrupted, ignoring any around them. Over time, and spontaneously so, they gain their independence from their masters and act upon their own accord. Once freed from their captivity, they are known to be docile and kind in nature. They typically hide themselves away from the rest of society, but there have been some cases where they have explored out to visit and explore the world.
