Automaton

"A marvelous race of creatures built by an ancient civilization hundreds of thousands of years ago. The last remnants of such a civilization recently discovered how to create more of themselves, barely saving themselves from extinction." -Race Description from The World of Idoria TTRPG

Built from metals, polymers, and glass, the Automatons are a robotic race of beings with a surprising range of human-emotions and thought-processes. As if, despite their metallic shells, they were human all along.

Functionally immortal, the Automatons have no need to eat, drink, breathe, stay warm or cool, or even sleep! These capabilities are as much a blessing as a curse, as it means they've been able to live for thousands of years but haven't gotten to savour the flavour side of cultures throughout the millenia. Some say if one pays attention, a sound of disappointment and longing can be heard when an Automaton is near a feast.

Being made of metal also means they're hardier, and tougher to kill... Assuming they can actually die, that is...

Automatons appear to be more keenly aware of their surroundings than some other races. Noticing little details and changes that most would overlook or ignore.
