Clay golems are constructed, animated beings created from clay soil. The method of their creation is detailed under the sage study, golems. Clay golems are specifically constructed for the purpose of revenge against a chosen enemy, malevolently wreaking havoc, destroying property and killing as many as possible. A famous example of this is the creation of a clay golem by a Jewish sect in Prague, that raged for seven days and killed seven hundred before the golem was reduced to dust.

Form

Clay golems are formed of compacted clay, the density of which is slightly greater than water. Their squarish shape and bulk is deceptive, for these creatures are unexpectedly fast moving.

The lettering might be anything. An engraving of the golem's purpose or a blessing upon the golem to send it on its way. It moves with a loping shape.
