Stone golems are constructed, animated beings created from stone, most commonly granite. The method of their creation is detailed under the sage study, Golem. As with any golem, the builder has some purpose for the creature in mind upon its construction: as a means of protection, for the purpose of waging war, to ensure privacy and isolation — or as a malevolent tool for wreaking havoc upon the creator's enemies.

Form

Stone golems built of other types of stone, such as marble, limestone or varying metal ores, will weigh less than the number given, as these materials are less dense than granite. The stone golem moves in a halting manner, but this is compensated for by the creature's height. It's head and hands are out of proportion with the rest of its body, with the head being far too small and the arms actually being larger than it's legs. The creature will usually move upon all four limbs — when running, it will dig with its hands and hurl its legs forward in a slow, loping gallop. It is only able to strike with one hand per round.
