Spiderstone Golem
The spiderstone golem, sometimes called the obsidian golem,
appears as a giant statue of a beautiful drow male or female with
four arms. The golem's body is smooth and glass-like, with shallow
cracks and fractures scarring its glossy black surface. Its eyes
glow like red embers that seemingly pulse and ebb. On its back are
four large one-handed weapons, each perfectly crafted and hewn
from obsidian.
Guardian and Hunter. When idle, the spiderstone golem stands
with its upper pair of arms akimbo and its lower pair folded
across its chest. When it enters combat, it will reach behind with
all four arms and draw all of its weapons. The spiderstone golem
is often encountered guarding entrances and main chambers of
temples and shrines of Lolth or in the throne rooms of drow house
matrons. On occasion, the spiderstone golem will be instructed to
hunt down targets, such as escaping prisoners.
Frenzied Construct. The body of a spiderstone golem is first
constructed by highly skilled drow artificers and wizards. Once
completed, it is sent to a high priestess who prepares it for a
ritual that binds a spirit of a demon to the golem. This demon is a
servant of Lolth sent from the Demonweb Pits to ensure absolute
loyalty to the Queen of Spiders and her followers. However, the
spiderstone golem is still unpredictable and dangerous to control.
When badly damaged, there is a chance that its demonic spirit will
suddenly enter into a demented rage, attacking anything near it
until it is destroyed or completely repaired.
Spider Warrior. In combat, spiderstone golems fight like
seasoned warriors, able to attack and defend against multiple
foes. Against mobile and distant targets, the spiderstone golem
can breathe a cone of sticky, toxic gossamer threads. This web-like
substance poisons whatever is ensnared by it.
