Editing Promethean: The Created (section)

====Constructs====
::'''Humour''': As parent Lineage
::'''Element''': As parent Lineage
Introduced in the 1e sourcebook Magnum Opus, Constructs are essentially attempts to take Prometheans to the more "traditional" idea of golems being made out of inanimate matter rather than corpse flesh. If Constructs exist in your game, they essentially say that, yes, the myths of Galatea being living marble or the Golem of Prague being living clay are true. Being made of material has assorted benefits and drawbacks - stone or metal-based Constructs are armored but slower, for example - but the universal drawbacks are that they do '''not''' look human (their Pyros just can't hide their Disfigurements) and they induce Disquiet far faster. Other than this, though, they follow the "normal" rules for their parent lineage - Frankenstein, Galateid, Osiran, Tammuz or Ulgan.

Although a Construct can be made out of any material, each Linage has a particular material that "resonates" with them, imposing the least penalty to attempts to create a Construct offspring:
* Frankenstein - Copper
* Galateid - Marble
* Osiran - Limestone
* Tammuz - Clay
* Ulgan - Birch Wood

In 2e, the writers realized that there wasn't really that much of a difference in terms of concept space between the Constructs and the Unfleshed, and so they were quietly folded together. The term is still used, but it's clarified that it's the general nature of the generative rite that defines the Lineage (e.g. a Promethean made from a marble statue that was intended to be a human companion would be a Galateid, as Unfleshed are merely made to be humanlike at most).
