Golem race

Race golem

Golems -- artificial constructs animated by magic. Made of stone, clay, iron, flesh, or whatever else the creator fancied. They don't breed or grow -- they're assembled one at a time.

Poison and disease can't touch the body -- there's nothing in there to poison. Ordinary weapons bounce off: steel on steel chips slowly. Magic, though, passes through them like wind through a grate -- spells cut deep. Mental attacks find nothing to grip: there is no mind in there.

Slow and dim in a fight, but tough. They shield their master with their bulk and strike with the full mass of the body.
