Golem

Classic Era (added 1999-2000)

Description

The golems of Everquest are magical or mechanical constructions which were created by their masters as servants, bodyguards, soldiers, or for some other duty or purpose. Many of these servants seem to be nigh mindless, but Sentry Kcor and others in Skyshrine are capable of conversation and creative action.

A race of mud golems with uncertain origins called the muddites inhabit the Gorge of King Xorbb.

Golems are strongly associated with evil gods, especially Cazic-Thule who created Dread, Terror and Fright.

The Shissar and possibly Iksar also were capable of creating golems, and created armies of them. They appear in form as enlarged, muscular Iksar made of mud. Many are capable of speech, but are only concerned with their purpose bestowed on them at creation; barring encroachment onto the territory of the army of the Ik.
