Animatronic

Animatronics are a synthetic race of robotic beings that live alongside humanity in the Multiverse.

Biology
Being robotic creations, animatronics do not require organic sustinance. Their source of energy often varies between different individuals, ranging from pure electricity to gasoline. Animatronics have highly varied physiology, depending on what role they were built to play. They could be built to resemble practically any sort of creature (the animatronic that plays as the Jurassic Park T-Rex has played his characters in all four films in the franchise). Most animatronics possess human-level intelliegence.

History
The very first animatronic was built at Disneyland in 1964, in the state of California.
