Example: The alchemist believes that the best hope
for his goblin golem to survive hazardous encounters
is to have a high Defensive Bonus, so he raises its
Movement Speed from Medium to Very Fast, which
adds +40 to its DB of 10 (from material), giving it a
final DB of 50. This increases the creation level from
7 to 10. Its Initiative remains +0.
Example: The Brass Golem is not altered from a
Medium Movement Speed so its DB becomes 10 + 0
(from material), so 10 in total. Its Initiative is +0.
Example: The Wolf Golem has a Defensive Bonus of
10 (Medium Movement Speed) plus 20 (from material)
giving a final DB of 30.
Example: The archmage wants the Warrior Construct
to be swift in combat and adept at dodging
blows. Hence he raises its Movement Speed from
Medium to Very Fast (+1.5 level), giving a final DB
of 50, and its Attack Quickness to Very Fast (+1.5)
level, giving it an Initiative Modifier of +12. The
adjusted creation level is 14 (11 + 1.5 + 1.5).
Example: The witch wants her Shark to equal or better its
organic counterparts, so she raises its Movement Speed to
Fast (+1), giving a final DB of 30, and an Attack Quickness
of Fast (+1). The adjusted creation level is 16 (14 + 1 + 1).
Carrying Capacity
An Entity’s size determines its carrying capacity. Entities
of appropriate shape, e.g. horse, wolf, Pegasus,
giant eagle, etc., can carry this load in the form of a rider
and gear. The Riding Bonus for a Golem is +0. Humanoid
Constructs equipped with a mechanical hand, and
humanoid Golems will be able to lift half their load
capacity per hand. By superior design, Constructs can be
specially constructed to lift or carry heavier loads – this
increases the creation level.
Example: The witch’s Shark Construct can carry 500
lbs – more than sufficient for the witch to use it as a
steed. The archmage’s Warrior Construct has no free
hands so it cannot lift its 250 lbs load capacity.
Critical Reduction
All Entities, regardless of size or material, are immune
to stun and bleeding results from all criticals. As detailed
in section 6.2, certain materials will also render Golems
completely immune to specific attack types and/or critical
results. Size affects an Entity’s ability to shrug off
criticals with larger Entities having superior default critical
reduction abilities. Creators can improve or weaken
this as shown below in tables 6.13 and 6.14. The hollow
nature and the delicate mechanisms of most Constructs
make improving critical protection more difficult than
for Golems.
Example: The enchantress decides that she wants her
Wolf Golem to be as resilient to damage as possible,
so she increases its Critical Reduction by one step
from Large to Super Large. The Wolf Golem’s creation
level is now 23.
Concussion Hits:
An Entity’s concussion hits are determined by its size
and material. This default can be raised or lowered in
steps of 25 concussion hits (+1 for +25 hits, -1 for –25
hits) for Golems, and in steps of 10 concussion hits (+1
for +10 hits, -1 for –10 hits) for Constructs.
Example: While the alchemist does not want his
Goblin Golem to become involved in combat, he
believes that 30 concussion hits are too few, so he
raises this by one increment to 55, and adds 1 to the
creation level, making it 11.
