Golem

* Statue
* Active
* Portrait

*The golem is a humanoid enemy which can be found mostly in the forest terrains after the first town.*

Robotic enemy claiming to be constructed by ”Mysteria the Magnificent”, which is practically a gift for those relying on magic, as it is a source of mana restoring items and soul crystals. Beware though, as it may be tough for unprepared travelers. Doesn't seem to actually have a mind, just a program, but a curious one indeed.

### Encounter

Hiro is attracted to a statue in the woods bearing feminine features. While examining it, he can fail deliberately (or while drunk) to notice anything of importance, and go away losing a bit of time and food. If the check in Magic 1 is passed, he's given a choice to leave, or *touch the statue*. Last option gives him a soul crystal — but Golem is activated.

At this point you can:

1. Dominate her having Magic 5
2. Soothe with Magic 5
3. Calm with Magic 3
4. Brace Yourself

Keep in mind that if you dominated **(1)** it, second time you meet Golem it will attack, having own settings messed up. But for now it gives you 5 soul crystals in total and the next choice:

* *Demand tribute*, meaning Mana Chunk additionally.
* *Demand pleasure*, meaning getting a stone piston where it doesn't belong (your ass).
* *Ask to fight her*
* *Tell her to shut down*.

If you've chosen the last option **(4)**, you receive 20 damage and immediately engage in battle. It's armored, hitting well, and using magic attacks. Losing means getting a piston up the Hiro's guts. If you defeat the Golem, you can see it's barely scratched, but now you can:

* *Ask for help* (Charisma 5 required), which leads to receiving a Mana Chunk, mana restoring item
* Ask for... scratching some itch you seemingly have inside of you (need low Purity/Catamite perk)
* Leave

If you manage to calm **(2)** or soothe **(3)** her, you will be getting the following choice from now on with one soul crystal each time you meet new Golem (with the only difference that when *calming*, you also need to pass the Perception 4 check, or you may receive something you didn't really ask for):

* *Ask for help* (Charisma 5 required) and get the Mana Chunk
* *Ask about her* to find out she actually wants an ice cream. And to empty her tanks inside someone... The previous choice repeats with new options
	+ *Ask for... help* (requires low purity/Catamite). Her stone member in your ass.
	+ *Give her ice cream* (requires finding one in Artifact cache; not consumable). She likes it. If you ask for help with Charisma 5, she will give more soul crystals now.
* *Ask to fight her*
* *Bid her farewell*: know that if you choose that, you won't meet other Golems anymore. Meaning no soul crystals at meeting them.

If you've chosen *bid her farewell*, next time you meet this particular Golem. For some reason she wants to learn love with you. So you can answer:

* Platonically, having normal choice after that.
* By seducing her (requires low purity/Catamite)
	+ *Bend over*, and she asks about the rhythm. Spoiler: she likes it fast, and you won't.
	+ *Get on your knees* and catch her load right in the mouth. You can choose whose load exactly will that be, if you really care...
