Hulking brutes, all black muscle and plate, the Golem Corpus is a lesson in raw mechanical force. Simpleminded on its own, it follows a set of basic orders magically imbued into its skeleton. The exposed muscle of the brute is dark, but faintly red, under the scarred plates that cover it’s surface. The Corpus stands fully 8ft tall with inhumanly broad shoulders, defined musculature, and immense fists capable of bodily grabbing an adventurer or battering them to pieces. Notable in its body plan is the lack of a head and face, though they have on occasion been seen carrying an ornate rounded metal object slightly larger than a human head (though much to small to fit the Corpus). When one of these objects is present, the Corpus has been observed to use tools, execute strategy, and generally behave in a fashion signaling greater intelligence.

“The Golem Corpus is a vicious guard dog. If they are present, it’s long-dead creators needed something protected. Doors, Vaults, Prisons, Laboratories, what have you... the Corpus mindlessly defends with fanatical devotion.”
