Lucky - The Awakened Puppet (Patreon)

The second, far stranger. What you quickly determine to be an awakened puppet. With suspicion, you watch carefully and with your magic you probe and detect nothing of malice within the creature or its creator.

The boy was an orphan from this town where he studied under a local wizard who sadly passed away. His friend lucky was his first real success in the art of animation and has been with him ever since. “Friends to the end” they both said in unison.
