Category:Construction

Construction is the strange half-way house of the Constructed. It is not life, it is undeath, it is not death, and it is not inanimation. Construction is a manifestation of neither positive energy nor negative energy. Druids do not decry it as being unnatural for it doesn't break the cylce of nature. Clerics do not condemn it as being unholy for it usually doesn't implicate a soul. It is a manifestation of artifice. It is artificial existence. Nevertheles, it consists of capacity and incapacity. It is consciousness and, in dread cases, self-conciousness. It is truly understood by neither the biologist nor the necrologist. The arcane lorist has some comprehension of it, so long as dark desire is not involved. Otherwise is the stuff of Ravenloft lorist. It is the fruit of constructcrafting and of Golemcrafting. Construction is often a curse. It is the parody of life. It is a poor substitute for immortality.
