Earth Golems

Earth Golems are a monster family in Rosacotta Kingdom. They are giant earth humanoids that inhabit many temperate areas of the world. Earth Golems, like many other monsters of Rosacotta Kingdom, come in various different appearances, power levels and rarities. While these are separate monsters, they all fall under the same family name.

## Variants

### The Clay Man

The primary member of the Earth Golems, The Clay Man is a giant humanoid made of brown clay. They have 2 mounds instead of a head, yet are somehow still able to detect things in their surroundings. Clay Men are often seen in temperate areas of the world, in partially wooded areas, preferably near some exposed earth. They can be spotted in groups as large as 5, and sometimes wrestle with each other seemingly over arguments. Clay Men are quick to anger yet slow to react. They often try to attack smaller creatures such as humans if they come across them. However, due to their sluggish instincts and clumsy movement, they are often not hard to escape. However, They are physically quite strong, quite resilient to many forms of attack, and weigh a considerable amount. Often their weight can be used against them, as they would come crashing down if one were to lose its balance. Clay men are highly resistant to electric attacks, but are vulnerable to fire and water type attacks.

### The Mountain Man

The secondary member of the Earth Golems, Mountain men are larger golems made of stone. They have a single, large mound for a head. Mountain men are more cunning and malicious than Clay men, and are considered some of the most notorious monsters for their threat to rarity ratio. They are often found in elevated areas, or anywhere the earth is exposed, like open pits or quarries. Mountain Men sometimes lead groups of Clay Men around, and direct them to attack things. Mountain Men are much heavier than Clay men, and much stronger as well. They sometimes throw rocks, tree trunks, or even other earth golems as weapons. They are a threat level 6: Dust Devil, and should be avoided by even heroes, unless one has the proper destructive force to vanquish them. They are highly resistant to most forms of attacks, and immune to electrical damage.

### King Krakatoa

The penultimate member of the Earth Golems, King Krakatoa are great earth titans formed of obsidian. Even bigger than their mountainous kin, The Kings are incredibly dangerous forces of raw, destructive power. With a volcano on their head, they are able to overheat their own systems to greatly increase their own speed and power. They actually do not attempt to weaponize lava, and rather conserve heat and energy. While seemingly not much more intelligent or malicious than other Golems, When King Krakatoas are angered or challenged they become massive threats. If you see their volcano spewing lava and smoking, it is a clear indication to flee the area. At max power, they are able to match the speed of well-trained heroes, giving them their high rating of 8: Hurricane. King Krakatoa are highly resistant to most forms of attack, are immune to electric and dark damage, and are actually made stronger by fire based attacks.

### Hyperion

The ultimate Earth Golem. Hyperion, The Boundless. Hyperion is a giant, 4-armed titan made of white marble, adorned with various glowing blue insignia. It is unknown how old Hyperion is. He is the most intelligent and reserved Golem. He is often not angered unless he feels challenged or greatly disrespected. Hyperion, while lacking the size and perhaps destructive power of a King Krakatoa, has a seemingly limitless pool of energy. Incredibly quick for his size and stature, Hyperion moves like a hero with the weight of an army. He can pour massive amounts of power into his many arms, making anything possible if he can get his hands on it. Also highly resistant to most forms of attack, Hyperion’s weight is not so easily turned against it like the other golems. It is more likely to exhaust its opponents before being destroyed by them. Because of all of these factors, Hyperion is threat level 10: Solar Flare. While he lacks the destructive force many other monsters of this tier often possess, Hyperion would be an incredible threat to any hero attempting to stop him.
