From Arcanet
Bestows intelligent thought and speech capabilities upon a beast, plant, or inanimate object until dismissed. Those which are not normally animate become fully animate and capable of locomotion, even if through simply bobbing side to side to move around due to a lack of limbs or similarly usable appendages. This is costly to maintain, particularly for inanimate objects. Rumors circulate of one particular mage who managed to briefly uproot and animate a vrugg but none can say why anyone would attempt to.
