Poppets are simple constructs made to assist their creators with basic tasks.

Sidebar - Additional Lore Poppet Assistants

Poppets are often crafted to be assistants within specific trades, making each one unique and specially designed for their tasks. For instance, a blacksmith's assistant may be crafted from sturdier materials than most poppets and lack their usual weakness to fire, while a poppet crafted to help out in an alchemical laboratory may be waterproofed and have articulated fingers for carefully measuring out different ingredients.
