Flesh Golem

Actions/Abilities/Traits: Basic Fantasy

Circumstance: Combat

2d8/2d8

Special

Cold and Fire Vulnerability

A magical attack that deals cold or fire damage slows a flesh golem (as the slow spell) for 2d6 rounds, with no saving throw.

Special

Lightning and Electricity Healing

Attacks using lightning or electricity heal 1 point of damage per every 3 points the attack would normally inflict, rounded down; further, such an attack breaks any ongoing slow effect on the golem. As usual, healing will not increase the monster above its normal hit points. For example, a flesh golem hit by a lightning bolt which should deal 14 points of damage instead receives up to 4 points of healing.

It cannot be damaged with normal weapons; magical weapons damage normally.

Special

Spell Immunity

Most spells have no effect on the monsters; cold and fire based spells will slow the golem to 50% speed for 2d6 combat rounds, while electrical attacks restore previous damage dealt to the golem at a rate of 1 hit point per die of damage inflicted by the spell (example: an 8 hit dice lightning bolt will restore 8 hit points of damage).

Special

Berserk Risk

1% cumulative chance per melee round of going berserk and attacking all targets in sight. Creator can attempt to reassert control at 10% per round.

Construct made from flesh that follows simple commands

A flesh golem follows simple commands by its creator, and can be ordered to stop all activity until a specific event takes place. For each melee round spent in combat, the flesh golem stands a 1% cumulative chance of going berserk and attacking all targets in sight. The golem's creator can attempt to reassert control at a chance of 10% per round. A flesh golem is created with a magical tome written for such a process or by a magic user (of at least 14th level) using the following spells: wish, polymorph object, geas, strength, and protection from normal missiles. One thousand gold pieces per hit point of the golem is spent on material components, and the entire creation process takes one month.

Trait

Construct

A construct is an artificial creature empowered by a force other than necromancy. Constructs are often mindless; they are immune to bleed damage, death effects, disease, healing, necromancy, nonlethal attacks, poison, and the doomed, drained, fatigued, paralyzed, sickened, and unconscious conditions; and they may have Hardness based on the materials used to construct their bodies. Constructs are not living creatures, nor are they undead. When reduced to 0 Hit Points, a construct creature is destroyed.
