Stone Golem

[Back to creatures]

True golems are created by powerful casters that assemble a humanoid form out of rocks, plants, clay, or bones. A golem and its maker share an intense bond, generally as friends or as that of student and teacher, though there are famous instances of a golem and its creator falling out quite terribly.

Golems can vary quite widely in their abilities based on what material they were made of and what Source of magic brought them to life.

A Golem’s Resist and Vulnerable properties are determined by the Source of Magic that was used in its creation. While certain Sources of Magic have already been assigned to these Golem stat blocks, you can easily customize a Golem stat block by using these properties instead.

Source	Resist and Vulnerable
Arcane	Resist Arcane 2, Divine 5, Primal 5 Vulnerable Occult 1, Psionic 1
Divine	Resist Divine 2, Primal 5, Psionic 5 Vulnerable Arcane 1, Occult 1
Occult	Resist Occult 2, Arcane 5, Divine 5 Vulnerable Primal 1, Psionic 1
Primal	Resist Primal 2, Occult 5, Psionic 5 Vulnerable Arcane 1, Divine 1
Psionic	Resist Psionic 2, Arcane 5, Occult 5 Vulnerable Divine 1, Primal 1
