An Awakened object, or [[BioChromatic_Breath#Types_of_BioChromatic_entities|BioChromatic entities]], acts as a host for the BioChromatic Breath used to Awaken it. Some types of objects more readily accept Breaths than others, making them easier to Awaken. Receptivity to Breath depends on the object's shape, its history, and the material it is made of.
 
Generally, Awakening inorganic objects that have never been part of a living thing is very difficult, requiring extremely large amounts of Breath. Organic objects, especially those shaped like living things, are much easier to Awaken.{{book ref|wb|46}} It is unknown whether inorganic objects shaped like living things are easier to Awaken (for example, a bronze statue compared with a bronze sword). It is almostfunctionally impossible to Awaken liquids.{{wob ref|13202}} Awakening liquids and gasses "wouldn't work the way [the Awakener] would want it to."{{wob ref|5891}}
 
On the other hand, closer proximity to a living form makes it harder to retrieve Breaths from an Awakened host.{{wob ref|6975}} For example, one generally can no longer recover the Breaths one used on a corpse.{{book ref|wb|46}} If the host is cut or broken, it will not die, and will try to continue its purpose. The level of damage will determine how well it can continue. The Breaths are also recoverable, but there could be some loss of Breaths, depending on how the host is destroyed.{{wob ref|5957}}
