Traits

Aversion to Fire.If the golem takes Fire damage, it has Disadvantage|XPHB on attack rolls and ability checks until the end of its next turn.

Berserk.Whenever the golem starts its turn Bloodied|XPHB, roll 1d6. On a 6, the golem goes berserk. On each of its turns while berserk, the golem attacks the nearest creature it can see. If no creature is near enough to move to and attack, the golem attacks an object. Once the golem goes berserk, it remains so until it is destroyed or it is no longer Bloodied|XPHB. The golem's creator, if within 60 feet of the berserk golem, can try to calm it by taking an action to make a 15 Charisma (Persuasion|XPHB) check; the golem must be able to hear its creator. If this check succeeds, the golem ceases being berserk until the start of its next turn, at which point it resumes rolling for the Berserk trait again if it is still Bloodied|XPHB.

Lightning Absorption.Whenever the golem is subjected to Lightning damage, it regains a number of Hit Points|XPHB equal to the Lightning damage dealt.

Slam.m 7, reach 5 ft. ({@damage 2d8 + 4) Bludgeoning damage plus 4 (1d8) Lightning damage.

Flesh Golem

Dead Flesh Given New Life

Flesh golems are roughly human-shaped collections of body parts bound together by misused magic or strange science. They serve their reckless creators, but many possess disjointed memories and instincts from their component parts. If wounded, these golems might go berserk and vent their confusion on anything in their sight, including their creators.

Flesh golems appear in varied forms. Roll on or choose a result from the Flesh Golem Characteristics table to inspire a flesh golem's features.

The barrier between the mortal and the divine lies shattered—open is the mold for new gods. It was I who invaded the divine. Not with a spear but with a stitch. Not with my heresies but with my heart.
