At-will, standard action, concentration, DC 11+; you touch a Tiny or Small nonmagical object and imbue it with rudimentary animation. The object can perform one simple, repetitive task: a broom sweeps, a quill writes what you dictate, a bell rings at regular intervals, a door opens and closes on command. The object has no intelligence—it follows instructions literally and cannot adapt to changing conditions.

  • DC +2: animate a Medium-sized object.
  • DC +2: the object can perform two different tasks on command (stackable).
  • DC +4: the animation is sustained (1 hour) without concentration.
