Wickerbeasts

Big, burly beasts of an often tribal nature, though very intelligent and resourceful.

They can be a tad voracious, able to eat up to 3x their body weight, but they are also incapable of wielding magic themselves, their bodies naturally warding it. Any magic used on them is weakened, if not nullified, and they can only use magic objects that activate mechanically (like pressing a button) as they cannot course mana to activate something. They delve into alchemy (NOT the FMA kind) and engineering to make up for their lack of arcane connection.
