[edit] General Information
A Forest Golem, brought to life with sylvan magic, is literally a living patch of forest complete with rooted feet. The Forrest Golem proves to be a fierce warrior as it stands as high as the tallest trees and pulverizes the enemy with fists the size of oak trunks.
[edit] Behavior
A Forest Golem does not need any spells or spellcasters to appear, but is simply summoned by the will of the forest. Commands are embedded within a Forest Golem upon their creation, all other actions remain mindless and impulsive as they lack a will of their own.
Overall behavior of a Forest Golem is determined by the forest from which it spawns. Most forests spawn a defending Golem who protects all sylvan creatures and locations. Darker woods have the ability to produce a much more aggressive Golem however, who has a much more destructive nature. While forests tend to be the producers of the Forest Golem, twisted druid cults have also derived a way to create and control their own Forest Golems.
[edit] Environment
Forest Golems may be born of any woodland. Often they appear near holy groves, stone circles, and wildsprings. Only forests with enough magic are able to create a Forest Golem. The strange Wychwode of Mercia, and Mirendil Forest harbor the most Forest Golem.
Forest Golems are sent out by both the Prophets of Mirendil and the Dark Arannog in order to ensure the continued freedom of native Imric people in Mercia.
