The Mask of Animation is a Kanohi that allows its user to give artificial life to and control objects for as long as they maintain concentration. The amount of concentration required to keep the objects animated increases with the number of objects controlled. The mask gives mobility to the animated object. It can also be used to stop the petrifaction effects of a Carzi. The object that is planned to animate must have been created by another living creature, the mask can't control basic elements (such as stones) because they are not considered objects.
