Golem: Difference between revisions

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 and before the application of any stats, 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 Floating Nerby slot).

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.

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.

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.

|One Golem is Passive, this is not mentioned in-game

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.

|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. They will always have [[Syphon Vim]]

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.

At a high level, the golem will get natural weapons in every slot whose type matches a slot with a natural weapon on the follower or, if none exist, the first default on the golem body or, if none exist, the primary limb type of the golem body, or if none of THOSE exist, the primary limb of the follower. For example, Bears that have two claws and a bite will end up with a Bear Golem that has a Face Metachrome weapon and four Foot Metachrome weapons.

Notes: Arrows are not a valid Zetachrome weapon, Psionic weapons are valid as long as they are Zetachrome.

 

The Player must choose a passage from their Journal to speak to the Golem, these will be the first sounds the Golem hears, and will (presumably) shape the Golem's psyche.  

* The golem is also a 'Mutant' type, so {{favilink|Eaters' nectar injector}}s 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).

* Unlike the above, the effects of drinking {{favilink|warm static}} only apply the skill shuffling, as if the golem were a Truekin.

* Due to the way that metachrome limbs are assigned, there is a trick that can enable some body shapes to get extra metachrome limbs: A method of gaining extra limbs with natural weapons on the follower which match a slot type on the resultant Golem Body, where normally that creature has other natural weapons that are included in the resultant Golem Body, makes both the extra limbs type and the normal natural weapon limbs end up with metachrome weapons. The easiest example is to use Agolgot's blessing to give a stone Wall follower pincers (hand slot natural weapons), and then create a Golem with that follower. The Golem will naturally get the two Stud slots as metachrome weapons, and also the small crack slots as metachrome weapon because of the pincers matching the type of the small cracks (hand).
