[2020] Future of the Ancients

How much is planned for Ancients? I really like the idea of a race that doesn't age, eat, or really have any needs aside from rest, at the cost of a lack of proliferation.

Right now they seem a little sparse, particularly when it comes to labor. Are there plans for more permanent summons, similar to imps, that have other specializations? For instance, something that lives solely to haul and will do nothing else, or something solely for stoneworking?

Summons aside, is there going to ever be a way to use void materials for building? Using shards or crystals to create void walls or floors, for example. By extension, could they be worked into tools, perhaps leading to a parallel path to metals, using more and more powerful magical materials to make tools instead of physical metals and stones?

When we can make mixed-race settlements, this could lead to some interesting tech paths - mixing void magic and human technology to create some amalgamation of ideas.
