Magnetized clay is knit together by circuitry that traces colossal and familiar features: [Body]. A bright mixture of primordial soup and [Catalyst] courses through their glass arteries, and in its soft light their posture evokes the presence of [Atzmus] Diamondlike metachrome limbs are sculpted in the way of [Armament], and in the position of prominence on their body, they bear the sacred amulet of [Hamsa].
The Golem is a being crafted from a Mound of scrap and clay by Pax Klanq. Its appearance, skills, attributes, and abilities are determined by the components that the player provides for its creation during the quest The Golem.
The Golem will always have room within its body for the player and one companion. The player can pilot the Golem by sitting in the Pilot seat. When piloted, the player has access to a modified form of the standard menus which cover the golem's equipment, the golem's stats and mutations, the golem's skills, the golem's inventory, and so on, as if you were the golem. This means you can spend gained stats, MP, and skill points.
The Golem will act as a companion to the player when not piloted, it will act at 50% quickness.
The Golem's default body, without any modifications, is Level 50, has 500 HP, and has Dark Vision at level 1.
The Golem is considered colossal and so can only be equipped with gigantic weapons and armor (except for the surroundings slot).
In cases where the inherited type does not provide a stat distribution, it will also start with 0 DV and an even, but randomized, stat distribution.
Body
Body of creature friend to form Creature after. Must follow you and be experience. No worry, friend not consumed in creation.
The Player must provide a follower at or above level 30 to determine the shape and body plan of the Golem. The follower is not consumed by the process and will remain in the Player's party after being chosen. Followers that are recruited via Proselytize, Beguile, or Rebuke Robot, will count as long as they meet the level requirement. Bodies take on some of the inheritable attributres of their Creature type, along with an appropriate (but not necessarily the same!) anatomy. Additionally, some have innate mutations, or modifications to base stats, beyond their Body or Creature base. These are covered in the 'Notes' column.
Catalyst
Three dram of pure liquid to catalyze soup and circulate nutrient. Liquid choice alter sanguine mixture, change Creature.
The Player must provide three drams of an undiluted Liquid to act as the Golem's blood. The player's choice of Catalyst can alter the Golem's abilities, resistances, immunites, damage output, and base stats.

Atzmus
Atzmus transcendental imprint of being. Pattern trait after creature part, crossed with Body.
The Player must provide a body part of any kind. It can be sourced from a plant, animal, or robot creature. The type of part does not effect the Golem (Head, Face, Hands, etc), only the being it was sourced from.
Mutations
If an Atzmus is sourced from a creature with viable Mutations, the Golem will gain said mutation.
Night Vision, as well as the NPC mutations Dark Vision, Wall Climber and Invisibility are excluded from being acquired via the Atzmus.

Variable Mutations
Some creatures will have differing mutations from one run to another, and will therefore have differing effects on your Golem.
Creature Source | Possible Mutations | Notes |
---|---|---|
Disciple of the Sightless Way | One Random Mental Mutation at level 1-4 | |
Goatfolk qlippoth, Mamon Souldrinker | Syphon Vim at level 1, One Random Mental Mutation at level 1-4, one Random Physical Mutation at level 1-4 | Qlippoths and Mamon draw from the same static choices that are chosen on world generation, and will therefore give the same Mutations as one another each run.

Psyberneticist | Three Random Mental Mutations at level 1-4 | |
Svardym eld | Two random Mental Mutations at level 8-10 | |
Glow-wight apotheote | Four Physical Mutations at level 9-12 |
Stat Bonuses
If a Creature does not have a Mutation(or only has Night Vision) its Atzmus will instead grant the Golem a +5 increase to whichever stat was the Creature's highest.
Armament
Zetachrome weapon. Attune Creature to the martial art and shape metachrome fist-types in the fashion after.
A Zetachrome weapon must be provided to arm the Golem. The weapon type will shape the creature's Natural Weapons, as well as grant them the full skill tree associated with said weapon.
Notes: Arrows are not a valid Zetachrome weapon, Psionic weapons are valid as long as they are Zetachrome.
The created natural weapons are Metachrome (4 PV base, appears to have no cap up to at least +23) and Gigantic.
Incantation
Words spoken from your experience and inscribed to form being-bond. First sounds heard in Creature's early dreambrain.
-Pax Klanq, on the Incantation

Tips
- It is possible to prevent the use of the normal staircase Barathrum's Study by using the Chrome key as a Hamsa. It is advisable to use a security card or Bethesda Susa key if one desires a Phasing Golem, lest you have to use the northwest staircase and dig into the study, or use a spiral borer to create a new staircase.
- The golem is also a 'Mutant' type, so Eaters' Nectar Injectors give random stats or MP. The high level gives you the ability to boost mutations quite a bit (at least, those which can be boosted, notably, most granted instances of Flight above can't be increased when given as part of a body).
- The Infrastructure's 1000 HP look tempting, but animated infrastructure generally starts at level 1, so you will have to level it all the way to 30 to be your golem's body.
- The Tree's 1500 HP also look tempting, but be careful: normal trees can't move (unless you give them a way to fly or something else) and you can't fly underground.
- A reliable source of gigantic equipment for the Golem is Hamilcrab, cyclopean merchant; especially good items may even influence the choice of the body.
Trivia
- It was briefly impossible to create a Tree Golem, as using a Tree follower to fulfill the Body requirement resulted in a Golem Oddity. This was a bug and has since been patched.
