The Infested Giant

The Infested Giant is a hybrid monster made up of an ancient golem built by an otherwordly civilization, and a parasite that lurks in void pits, infesting and corrupting other creatures and even inanimate objects. Scraps of the golem's schematics are few and far between, with the majority of them being in the Mad Artificer Suludo's possession. Despite the condition of the golem itself, The Infested Giant is incredibly powerful, with much of the damage being compensated for by the parasite spread across it. The Giant is incredibly aggressive, patrolling its territory and immediately attacking anyone unfortunate enough to stumble upon it. It's large body allows it to use incredibly powerful attacks with a wide range, but it is very slow, held back by the weight of it's weapons and the damaged condition of the golem main body. The first sighting of The Infested Giant was in The Magisterium, after it climbed out of the void pit below The Abyssal Isles, recently corrupted and enraged at the presence of the city. The creature wields two weapons, a broken horn, mainly used for crowd control purposes, the shockwave from the massive horn managing to burst eardrums and shake people to their very core, alongside a weaponized shield, the jagged edges making it akin to an axe rather than a shield. The parasite infesting the golem allows the Giant to use an even wider array of attacks, the tentacles growing from inside of the armor being capable to grab enemies and surfaces from a distance, allowing the golem to pull others toward itself, and even pull itself closer to them by grabbing onto surfaces nearby. The giant maw nested in the upper half of the golems helmet allows it to both eat it's prey, and spew acid from a distance, making it an incredibly dangerous foe both nearby and from a distance. Much about the parasite infesting the golem is unknown, and even less is known about the golem that houses this parasite.
