| - | Form: If the object you animate lacks them it gains rough, rudimentary limbs without appendages like fingers. These often take the form of existing parts of the object being made pliable or able to bend. | + | |
| - | Sidebar: Not All Corruption Spells are “Evil” | + | |
| - | When you create an animated object you are technically puppeting a creature, though in this case it’s an extension of your own soul. While this is technically a corrupting spell, it’s mostly you imposing your will... on yourself. Few would fault you for temporarily animating a scarecrow to go do some farm work. You may have to explain what you’re doing to a paladin who happened to be walking by and sensed some corruption but this spell is not something anyone would reasonably object to. While most spells that corrupt the caster are considered immoral, not all of them are. | + | |

| An “oath” is not so much a “thing” in the actual game; it is a mechanical abstraction. It is called different things by different people but ultimately represents their sense of morality. It might be their formal code of conduct, their religious beliefs, their personal philosophy, a literal oath they have sworn, what drives them, or even something as fluid as “just how they do things”. The discern oath spell is actually giving the caster insight into their heart, their underlying morality and what is important to them. | An “oath” is not so much a “thing” in the actual game; it is a mechanical abstraction.
