Editing Norrathians: Trade Skill (Arcana) (section)

===Enchanter===

Animations summoned by enchanters are pulled from Rallos Zek’s plane of War, where the copious surplus of enchanted weaponry sometimes results in strange clusters of weapons that draw themselves up out of the piles of debris and seek out combat.  These are not constructs or creatures at all – these are simply weapons that have been imbued with so much raw magical energy that they spontaneously attempt to continue battle.  Once in the common material plane, the magical energy is directed toward a goal to protect a master.  Because of this, they continue to be animated and stable, simply returning to their home plane upon destruction rather than exploding.

Tiny daggers are actually just effigies, or charms that appear like daggers.  These are typically made of lead and silver.  More ornate daggers are made of more precious metals.  These daggers are always made of metal, no ink or other material.  The arcane scribings that other components have is included in the style and design of the dagger, but tiny daggers always include the caster’s arcane mark, usually carved or molded into the dagger, or placed in a metal tab which is attached to the dagger.

Of the raw materials cost in making tiny daggers, 75% is the metal.  The rest of the cost represents the cost in toolkit maintenance.

When hexblades cast animation summoning spells, they use the same material component as an enchanter would when casting the same spell, regardless of the spell level for the hexblade.
