Homebrew AutomaKin Species Details
They hail from a far off island nation Olutmur that grew bored with their surplus of animals and resources, so they decided to create a new source of entertainment. Automakin mostly live to serve with some learning to be free and think on their own. They are somtimes tasked to go out and protect or grab something of interest.
These magical beasts are half creature half automata, standing between 5.5 ft and 6.7 feet the creatures have a metal visor and 1-2 sets ears, with some rarely having horns. They can consume food for energy but dont need to, and they dont need to breathe either. Their body and pelvis area are metallic and can attach limb in a ball and socket fashion, with each arm end covered in fur ending in claws. Same for the legs wich or digitigrade and furry. Most have soft manes and patterns on their fur, with the glow of the visor unique to most automakin
During the eberron era the nation felt unsafe and modeled the Automakin to better suit protection and safety, thus making meeting Olotmur inhabited nearly impossible.
They were born to live and serve, so naturally they have a racial bonus of a +1 to dex and -1 to wis.
