The Svahiac are animated constructs; built and granted free-will by the craftsmen of the Alliance. They possess, on average, a lower intellect than the other orders, but have substantially enhanced combat skills. They serve many different purposes, from warriors to craftsmen to builders to teachers, and have been a valuable asset to the Alliance since the beginning.
Displayed below are the slight differences in the Svahiac Order that differ from other Orders:
Gender
Svahiac can have genders, but generally are not made to. Their voices are deep, rusty, mechanical sounding, and they have flat chests. In the dropdown for gender, put "construct".
Weapon
There is no required weapon for a Svahiac character, and because of their extra physical strength, characters are allowed to have pretty well any weapon they want, extremely light to very heavy. Other Orders do not have this advantage.
Familiar
Usually, a character may have one familiar, that is an animal of any specified gender and breed. Fantasy animals are allowed, but within reason (at the discretion of Master William). However, the Svahiac are not human, and are therefore not born with a familiar like humans are. Instead, they have been granted the ability to shapeshift, that is, to change shape, into one animal form of their choice. The rules for two of a specific breed in the Kingdom still applies, but this allows for much more interesting RPs.
Appearance
Svahiac characters resemble very closely to humans in shape and proportions, though generally are bigger and do not have skin. They can be made of any material, from metal to mud. Though their appearance can be very different, some still try to fit in by getting tattoos and piercings (if possible). They can scar just like humans, and sometimes have hair. Their eyes can be anywhere from rainbow to black coloured.
Magic
Svahiac cannot use magic, as they themselves are held together by magic.
