Golem

Golem warriors are creatures made from mud and clay that are created by magicians.

History
Many magicians have created by Golems by sculpting them from mud, rock, earth, or clay, and placing a simple animation spell on parchment in their mouths. Golems have entered Jewish folklore tales, and are the inspiration behind any zombie myth. The Red Golem of Prague is a very famous Golem.

John Dee created four Golems to aid him in attacking The Small Book Shop where Nicholas Flamel was hiding the Codex. Three entered the shop with Dee, and Flamel launched energy blasts at them. One Golem flew out in the street, and the others were rocked against the store's walls. Perenelle Flamel then destroyed one of the Golems, but Dee retaliated. Perenelle was knocked unconscious, and the remaining two Golems carried her away as Dee secured most of the Codex. These Golems and the third later accompanied Eyes through San Francisco to trail Flamel. They followed the Eyes to destroy Flamel. In Scathach's hideout, two Golems were destroyed, but one found the hidden entrance into Scathach's main hallway. Dee took control of the Golem, and began to fight Scathach when Sophie Newman threw a microwave at the Golem's chest. With this distraction, Scathach removed the spell controlling the Golem, rendering it useless.

Abilities and Traits
Golems are mindless creatures that can be easily controlled by a magician. A scrying spell can see through the eyes of a Golem, and that is influenced by the material used for the eyes. Black polished stones are very clear, but give a monochrome view. In warm and dry climate, Golems megan to melt and or shed into flakes. As such, Golems are used in wet climate.
