**Golems** are mindless anthropomorphic beings that exist naturally in Valenthia. They are entirely made of inanimate matter, thanks to prevalent supernatural forces and elemental magic.

## Physiology

### Description

Golems are typically humanoid in shape, though they are often much larger and have additional limbs to help them perform their tasks. Golems can be made from a variety of materials, but wood, stone, and earth are the most commonly used due to their strength and malleability. Golems are typically created to perform tasks that would be inconvenient, difficult, or impossible for a wizard, mage, or witch to perform, such as carrying extremely heavy objects, working in dangerous environments, or engaging in physical combat.

However, it is far more vile and dangerous if someone creates a golem made of metal such as Steel, Tungsten of Titanium. They are physically the most dangerous brutes to be used in the battlefield. But, if someone creates a golem made of Nevium, it is an indestructible force of nature!

Golems are humanoid figures made mostly from stone, wood, nature, ice and fire. Buried within their bodies are *magical charms* that grant them the ability to move autonomously. Their dimensions are decided by their creators, but most do tend to be twenty feet at least. Golems are often created to guard important places, treasures, or people, and they follow orders loyally and without question.

Golems are a powerful force to be reckoned with, considering their overwhelming physical strength and defensive advantages, but if anyone can destroy the brittle charms within them that grant them life, they will stopped forever. Since these brutish beings are little more than puppets obeying the orders of their creators, they do not possess wills of their own, nor emotions or even a sense of self. Accordingly, they are not capable of any type of communication.

### Abilities

* **Superhuman Strength**: A standard full-grown Golem is capable of exerting superhuman levels of strength. They can lift usually by fifteen tons average, but Stone golems are capable of exerting over 30 tons, while Nature golems are at a staggering 50 tons. They can throw a punch or kick with a force of 12-46 tons in a speed of 75 miles per hour.

* **Superhuman Durability**: Golems are naturally durable thanks to being made of inanimate matter, and the lack of vital organs greatly amplifies their immense durability. They can shrug off arrows and usual military-grade swords with ease, and sustain their bodies in direct cannon fire.

* **Healing Factor**: They can partially heal any severed limbs. Wood Golems on the other hand are continuously regenerating whenever they lose pieces of their body.

* **Subservience**: Due to being limited in intelligence, they can only obey orders without hesitation through their master at will. In short, they are nothing but puppets subservient to their master.
