Painted creations are constructs that are created by talented arcane artists who infuse their works of art with tiny portions of their own spirit.

Appearance

The appearance of a painted creation varies hugely and is only limited by the subject that the artist chose to paint. Painted creations are composed entirely of rare magical paint that, after the creation process is complete, assume the form of whatever the artist painted. Despite how lifelike painted creations are, they are still made of paint.1

Apart from their creation method, painted constructs can be as varied as the creatures that inspire art. The only visible difference between the subject and the painted creation is that the colours of the painted creation seem more vivid and defined. Painted creations also move with a level of grace greater than their subjects due to their liquid composition.1

Habitat and ecology

As constructs, painted creations tend to dwell wherever their creator dwells. Painted creations are completely loyal to their creator and do their bidding without question. Painted creations have no place in the natural world, do not need food, and can live without having any impact on the world around them.1

Abilities

Due to the nature of the liquid paint that makes up a painted creation, its touch is toxic to most living things, and it can pass through small spaces with ease.1
