Somata

"MASTER"
Somatas create and wield flesh. Unlike Flesh Stitchers, Somatas can conjure flesh and animate it freely. Their primary weapons are companions they have created by pooling flesh into shells made of skin or hides.

History
Somatas are one of the four original animastics granted by Malmarax to the Grimytes. The animastic is rich with generations of users in very prominent reaches of the Hive. Unfortunately, this animastic was hit hardest by the Night of Redemption, losing nearly all of its users. But, Somatas have recently made a healthy comeback and an important role in the recreation of the Sacramental Shrine.

This animastic is highly respected because its powers are used in many structural facets of the village. Without Somatas, the Shrines, the Flesh Coven, and even commodities like surplus meats and flesh homes could not exist.

Archanimasts and Prominent Figures
Creation, Roleplay, and References

Somatas can create flesh companions. They can create as many Fleshbags as they like. Symbiotic Fleshbags and Haircrows are separate entities which may have advanced designs. Somatas can also create flesh armor and weaponry.

You are required to make references for every Fleshbag, Haircrow, Symbiotic Fleshbag and Flesh Weapon you own, as well as one for your Flesh Form. Please use the guides below to create your references and submit them. {| class="article-table" !

Creation Guides
You may Roleplay your creatures yourself, or you may assign them to another member to play for you. Please keep in mind that unless the creature is classified as "Symbiotic", it is an ability, not at true companion.

Earning Your Power
Somatas have an extensive history of teaching, but most of their abilities rely on the creation of flesh.

Combat Mechanics

A Somata's strength lies in the ability to protect themselves from harm. They are equipped with magical weapons & armor, immunity from broken bones, and creatable companions to fight for them.

Playability

Somata is very similar to Elements because much of its use is marked by manipulation abilities. This means the versatility of their ability list can be increased indefinitely simply by how you use manipulation.

Manipulation Class

This animastic relies on creativity and intuition by the player to detail their use of flesh effectively. While there are many specific abilities, there are several manipulation abilities which allow players more freedom over what their can easily do.
