They don't have much in terms of magic, they're just stronger, tougher,and heavier than a skeleton. As for what they would be... I assume you mean what kind of fossil they come from, well it could be any kind of fossil. As long as it has enough fossilized bone. I would like to point out that while they may appear similar to their living counterparts the similarities are only in appearance. They have been dead for a very long time so the memories and personality have been leached out like the calcium in their bones. So they are pretty much a blank slate and everything is new to them and they have to learn things as a child would. They aren't a long dead creature brought to life but a new being entirely born from that creatures remains. A Tyrannosaurus Fossil may look similar to a Tyranno but the similarities end there. A Tyrannosaurus Fossile could end up developing a shy and submissive personality or an Anylosaurus Fossile could end up being friendly and outgoing.
