Alright. Down to business. For those who need help understanding the way of the Puppet and how I see them, continue on reading.

Basics
'The way I imagine puppets, they have no metal on them whatsoever, so they are in no way an animatronic of any type. The only exception would be their voice boxes.'

Now. Onto the obvious basics. This will be added onto as it goes on.
 * They aren't animatronic.
 * They all use strings and/or wires.
 * Controlled by a tune.
 * Have masks that could resemble the original Puppet's mask.

Types
Yes! There are types of Puppets! If you prefer to go by just the simple puppet name, that's fine.

Marionettes
Ah yes, Marionettes, the largest and most elusive beings. Though they really can range from sizes, they are generally larger than most puppets. Ranging from around 6 feet to 10 feet tall. Most of them are good, and dislike using what magic they've got. Unfortunately, Marionettes can not give life, and it is rare to find one that can. Female marionettes are pretty hard to pick out as well.

Puppets
This is where it's a bit tricky. Puppets and Marionettes can be similar but they are in fact different. First off, Puppets are smaller in size. Ranging from heights along 3 feet to 5 feet tall. It's rare for a puppet to withstand a lot of power, Bean being the primary source. Puppets also can have many different personalities, but that's to be explained further in this page. Female puppets are not the easiest to find.

Jack-In-The-Boxes
Perhaps ranking the lowest on this little tower, they're the tricksters. Like those cheesy villains or something. The Bill Cipher's of the Puppet Kingdom only charged with much less power. Most of which are male, and come with their own boxes that can be wound up, but can hop out of as well. Most of this type also are more on the neutral evil side. As there's only been one real evil being in the Puppet Kingdom, and most of these type were taken in as soldiers or servants.

Other
Other types such as mannequins and plastic dolls are acceptable, though they aren't necessarily desired throughout this kingdom. Also, why not mix it up? Combine a puppet or marionette with a few doll parts to make them more flexible?

Note:
Based on their types, this can also vary on their level of intelligence: Marionette's having the highest knowledge, other smaller types having the least.

General Abilities
Everyone has a power here. Really. But, they also have their weaknesses.

The general abilities stood by all of the types are: Now. Onto explanations for those abilities.
 * Mist
 * Floating
 * String/Wire summoning
 * Screeching/Static

Mist
Mist is not only a way of transportation if completely drained, it can also be a healing technique, or just to summon certain objects. Also a way of camouflage if need be.

Floating
If a type refuses to abuse their powers, they could use their actual abilities for serious moments. But, floating is perhaps the laziest way of using their abilities.

String/Wire Summoning
Depending on the type, a puppet could summon heavy duty, black, wires in order to properly deal with a kill. Only certain puppets and marionettes can use red thread/wire, which immediately connects to one's soul.

Screeching/Static
Like I said, the only exception puppets have to not being animatronic are their voice boxes. You don't know what could've happened that caused a rogue puppet to sound like a fax machine! But, any type is capable of doing this as an act of defense.
