Amaranthine Golem

These huge automatons were used by the old Amaranthine Empire in siege operations and against powerful monsters. Cast in bronze in the shape of a legionnaire, each golem was animated by the fused souls of a whole centuria of war veterans, becoming tactical masters and even competent commanders. The inside of each golem contains icor, a golden and incandescent substance which generates heat. These constructs may still be found guarding the legendary underground amaranthine fortresses (created to withstand dragons) left after the fall of the Amaranthine Empire. The Lega Groura has several of these golems, at least one for each polis, guarding their acropolises. Some of these golems are valuable sources of information about the past.
