I'd be happy with just the clockwork stuff. Heck, I'd be happy with just Steam&Steel. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />[/QUOTE]Solar-powered steam engines are in Steam & Steel, as well as a crystalburner engine. Magical steam engines as well, from arcane source to dweomerburner, essence engines and divine engines, as well as an array of nasty necromantic steam engines. Non-magical living constructs - I've left the exact nature of how constructs are given sentiences of any kind up to the DM, and since most of the constructs do not require magic item creation feats to make, they do not technically need to be magical at all <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> Of course, using a spirit matrix you could bind a pit fiend into a behemoth construct if you wanted (behemoths being the huge guys duking it out in Squidheads colour art earlier in the thread) <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />[/QUOTE]
