[edit] Golems
Golems are mechanical beings built by powerful mages and given a semblance of life.
[edit] Personality
Golems are stoic and tough, accepting what life has given them, which isn't much. They can be the staunchest of allies or the most tenacious of enemies. Despite being formed of clockwork and magic, they are generally good-hearted people.
[edit] Physical Description
Golems are mechanical beings formed of metal, wood, and stone. They stand well over six feet tall and are carved with intricate, magical designs. Their faces are capable of little expression.
[edit] Relations
Golems are fairly passive, and get along with any race accepting of their kind. This includes most dwarves, trolls, gnomes, fallen and changelings.
[edit] Alignment
Most golems are neutral.
[edit] Lands
Golems live mostly in Albion Proper or among the dwarves.
[edit] Religion
Golems have no gods or deities.
[edit] Language
Golems speak Albionian, since Albion is the only country to produce golems.

- Golems are constructs with the living construct subtype. A living construct is a created being given sentience and free will through powerful and complex creation enchantments. Golems are living constructs who combine aspects of both constructs and living creatures. They have the following features: Golems derives their Hit Dice, base attack bonus, saving throws, and skill points from the class it selects. Unlike other constructs, a golem has a constitution score, but does not have low-light vision or immunity to mind-affecting spells and abilities. Golems cannot heal lethal damage naturally. Golems are subject to critical hits, nonlethal damage, stunning, ability damage, ability drain, death effects and necromancy effects. Golems can be affected by spells that target living creatures as well as by those that target constructs. A golem with 0 hit points is disabled, as with a living creature. He can take only a single move action or standard action in each round, but strenuous activity does not risk further injury. When his hit points are less than 0 and greater than -10, a golem is inert. He is unconscious and helpless, and cannot perform any actions. An inert golem does not lose additional hit points unless more damage is dealt to him. Golems cannot be raised or resurrected.
