| − | '''Animated objects''' are a type of [[construct]].{{cite|MG|187}}. They are physical [[object]]s that have been animated through the use of [[magic]]. These items are often possessions of [[necromancer]]s and animated specifically to assist the [[spellcaster]] in his work. When the necromancers die, these objects usually lose their animation — but not always. Some tales describe ancient guardians, flying swords, and other items that still defend the abandoned laboratories of dead necromancers. |

| − | Animated objects are never encountered "wandering" Azeroth, but they are always created with purpose. They can be found in cities, private residences, and [[wizard]]s' laboratories. These creatures have no emotions, no "desires", and no need to leave their homes for hunting or other purposes. When not being used by a necromancer, they do nothing except sit on their proverbial "shelf".{{Cite|MoM|190}} |
