Animated Pickaxes

Animated Pickaxes were created by miners who wanted tools that could work dangerous seams without risking lives. In the Collapsing Passages, the enchantment has degraded into a hostile routine: identify movement, strike, scatter, and repeat. Old quarry marks on their heads may reveal the name of the mage, guild, or forgotten civilization that first animated them.
