### Basic Golemancy
The golem obeys your commands to the best of its abilities. In combat, it acts on your turn. You can verbally command it to move (no action required by you), and use your action to command it to take an action. Additionally, whenever it would be able to take a reaction, you must use your reaction to command it to take that reaction. If you do not command it on your turn, it may only take the dodge action. If you are incapacitated, the golem may move or attack on its turn, not just dodge.

Your golem shares your proficiency bonus. If the golem is killed, it can be returned to life by normal means, such as the revivify spell, or you can repair it during a long rest if you have access to its body. At the end of the long rest, it returns to life with half its hit points (rounded down). If the golem is beyond recovery, you can recreate it exactly as it was, with four days of work (8 hours each day).

Over the course of a short rest, you can restore hit points to your golem equal to your Intelligence modifier + your inventor level, or you can fully repair it during a long rest, causing it to regain all its hit points. Any spells you cast that cause the target to regain hit points ignore any restrictions against constructs for your golem.

It ceases to function when you die.

### Spellcasting
In studying the workings of your golem, your musings have lead you to cast spells at 1st level. Your spells are concerned with the operation and maintenance of your golem and self defense.

#### Spell Slots
The Golemancer table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these Golemancer spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest.

#### Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher
You know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the Golemancer spell list. The Spells Known column of the Golemancer table shows when you learn more Golemancer spells of your choice.

Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 5th level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level.

Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the Golemancer spells you know and replace it with another spell from the Golemancer spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.

**Spell save DC** = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier.

**Spell attack modifier** = your proficiency bonus + your Intelligence modifier.

</div>

\columnbreak

#### Spellcasting Focus
You can use an arcane focus as a spellcasting focus for your Golemancer spells. See chapter 5, "Equipment" in the Player’s Handbook for various arcane focus options. Your golem also counts as a spellcasting focus.

### Golem Specialization
At 1st level, you decide upon a material and technique you will specialize with, each of which are detailed at the end of the class description. Your choice grants you features at 1st level and again at 6th, 9th, and 14th level.

### Specialization Upgrade
Starting at 2nd level, choose an upgrade from the list at the end of your Golem specialization, gaining the benefits listed in its description.

You select an additional upgrade at 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th, 12th, 14th, 16th, 18th, and 20th level. You can’t select an upgrade more than once, unless the upgrade’s description says otherwise. Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can exchange one of your existing upgrades with another upgrade of the same level requirement as the replaced upgrade.

Whenever an existing upgrade is exchanged for a replacement upgrade (either by a subclass feature or when you gain a level), the new upgrade is selected as if you’re the level you were when you originally gained that upgrade. For example, if you replace your Capture and reselect all of your upgrades as a 5th-level golemancer, you could select one 3rd-level upgrade and one 5th-level upgrade, or two 3rd-level upgrades, but you would not be able to select two 5th-level upgrades

### Simple Repairs
At 2nd level, you can repair your golem on the fly. As an action, you may repair your golem if it’s within 5 feet of you, expanding your own hit dice equal to half your Golemancer level rounded up. Each hit dice spent is rolled as normal, but you may add your intelligence modifier rather than your constitution modifier. If the mending spell is on your spell list, you may cast it on your golem with the effects of *lesser restoration*, and restore any lost body parts over the course of the casting time.

\pagebreakNum

### My Turn!
At 3rd level, your work with golems grants you the fascinating idea: why should golems have all the fun? You gain the ability to activate certain abilities on your golems, denoted by a capital G, as if they were your own abilities. These abilities originate from you and use your statistics. If the ability does not have a time limit or does not cost an action to use, the ability lasts for 1 minute. Any reference to “your golem” refers to you instead, and you gain any weapon attack profiles explicitly mentioned in the feature by name. You may only have one golem ability active at a time. If you activate this feature again, any previous golem ability immediately ends.

You may use this ability a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, and regain all uses on a long rest.

### Ability Score Improvement
When you reach 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.

### Autonomy
At 5th level, you no longer need to use an action or reaction to command your golem to use an action or reaction, and you may issue commands to it mentally while it’s within 60 feet of you.

If the golem isn’t commanded to do anything on its turn, it will take a dodge action in combat

### Fundamental Pattern
At 5th level, your golem’s natural weapons count as magical for the purposes of immunity or resistance to non-magical damage.

### Warded Bonds

At 7th level, whenever you take damage, you may gain resistance to that damage as a reaction. Your golem takes the same amount of damage that you took.

You may use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus. You regain all uses on a short or long rest.

### Discipline Dabbling
At 10th level, your golem may inherit the characteristics of another field of golem study. Your golem gains one of the following: the Mythic Golem’s Elemental Attunement, the Steel Golem’s Stalwart Protector, or the Fleshcrafted Golem’s Apex Predator.

\columnbreak

### Arcane Recognition
At 11th level, whenever you cast a spell with a range of touch or one of the spells granted by this feature, as long as you’re within a range of 100 feet of your golem, it may deliver the spell as if it had cast the spell, or use the spell’s effects on itself. If the spell requires concentration, it lasts for a number of rounds equal to your Intelligence modifier instead.

Spells granted this way do not count against the spells you know.

### Of Two Minds
At 18th level, whenever you cast a spell that requires concentration, as long as you’re within 100 feet of your golem, you may have your golem concentrate on that spell for you. Your golem may only hold concentration on one spell this way and may lose concentration as normal. Your golem makes saving throws to maintain concentration as normal.

If you cast a second spell that requires concentration and you are currently concentrating on a spell, you may have your golem concentrate on it. If you ever are more than 100 feet from your golem, your golem loses concentration on any spell it is concentrating on.

### Perfect Form

At 20th level, you can perfect your work like nobody else can. At the end of a short or long rest, you gain a temporary golem upgrade from any class that you meet the prerequisites for but do not already have. This upgrade must be of 11th level or lower, and it lasts until you finish a short or long rest, at which time you can select a new temporary upgrade again.

\pagebreakNum

### Fleshknit
There will be a description here about how the Fleshknit golem is a macabre and somewhat evil thing. Your specialty is casing the joint, selecting a target, and letting your little xenomorph do the dirty part. Then, with the help of some illusion magic and a little bit of guile, you and your twitching, multi-limbed monstrosity wearing a baby's face blend into a crowd, as if you were never there.

This is the messed up one, and the people who play this subclass relish inflicting abject terror into their enemies before slaying them once they're all alone.

#### Apex Predator (G)
At 1st level, your golem begins its hunt against those who are isolated, afraid, and alone. A creature counts as an Isolated target as long as they have no other allies within 10 feet of them. They gain the following benefits against isolated targets:

- Whenever your golem is targeted with a ranged attack by an isolated target, it may move up to its movement speed toward that target, ignoring attacks of opportunity.

- Your golem deals 1d6 extra weapon damage to isolated targets.

Your golem's damage against isolated targets increases to 2d6 at 5th level, 3d6 at 9th, 4d6 at 13th, and 5d6 at 17th.

#### Fleshcrafted (G)
At 6th level, your golem gains climbing speed equal to its walking speed, 20 feet of swim speed, and it may dash as a bonus action on its turn.

#### Better Stitching
At 9th level, increase the AC score of your golem by 2 and increase its speed to 40. Your golem’s attacks gain an additional +1 to hit.

#### Arcane Recognition
You learn the following spells if you don't already know them, as shown in the Arcane Recognition Table. These spells count as Golemancer spells for you, but do not count against the number of Golemancer spells known.

#### Endless Hunt
At 14th level, your golem can go on the prowl. As a bonus action, pick a creature in sight of you or your golem. That creature counts as being isolated for 1 minute. The first attack that hits that creature made by your golem counts as a natural 20.

You may use this feature once per long rest.

___

### Mythic
A description here about being inspired by myths and stories of heroes fighting monsters. Except, you didn't really find yourself tempted to go out and be those heroes, you always loved the monsters. I mean, who *doesn't* like dragons? They're *dragons*, they will always be cool, so why not make your own?

#### Elemental Attunement
At 1st level, your golem is attuned to the elements. Choose one of the following elements and gain its effects: 
* **Stone:** Your golem gains +1 AC and the damage die for its natural attack becomes 1d8.
* **Ice:** As an action, the golem may create a 5-foot cubic ice pillar. It has an AC of 15 with an HP of 15. If this is put underneath a creature, that creature is pushed 5 feet of your choice and must make a dexterity saving throw equal to your spell save DC. On fail, it is knocked prone. 
* **Fire:** This creature deals an additional 1d4 fire damage with its weapon attacks.
* **Lightning:** Whenever this creature hits with a weapon attack its target may not take reactions until the start of this creature’s turn.

At the end of a long rest, you may select a different element to gain its effects.

#### Wrought from Myth (G)
At 6th level, your golem gains further abilities. Choose one of the following elements and gain its effects. 
* **Myrmidion:** Your golem cannot be involuntarily moved, shoved, grappled, or knocked prone. Your golem gains proficiency with shields. As a bonus action, your golem may raise its shield. Friendly creatures with shields within 10 feet of the golem gain +1 to their AC as they form a shield wall. The benefits of the shield wall last until the start of your golem’s turn.
* **Scyllan:** As an action, your golem conjures a wave of water that it rides upon. Choose an area within 60 feet. The area can be 20 feet long, 10 feet wide, and up to 10 feet tall. Each creature within that area must make a dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC. On a failed save, they take 4d6 bludgeoning damage and are knocked prone. On a successful save, they take half damage and are not knocked prone. Your golem can ride the wave. If it does, it appears anywhere in the area of effect of the wave.
You may use this ability a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus. You regain all uses after a long rest.
* **Stymphalian:** Your golem becomes a bristling mass of shaped feathers and spikes. Whenever a creature within 5 feet hits your golem, it takes 1d6 piercing damage. In addition, your golem gains the ability to shoot sharp feathers as a ranged attack. It has proficiency in this weapon, and it counts as a natural weapon for your golem. It has the finesse and special properties. It deals 1d6+3 piercing damage, and has a range/long range of 60/120 feet.
    * *Special* Whenever a creature takes piercing damage from this weapon, the next attack against that creature deals an additional 1d6 piercing damage for up to 1 minute.
* **Midas-Touched:** Whenever your golem hits a creature with a melee attack and deals damage, that creature must make a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC. On failure, they become partially petrified by gold. For 1 minute, that creature has disadvantage on dexterity saving throws, count as five times their own weight, and whenever another creature takes lightning damage within 30 feet of them, they take half as much damage that was dealt as they become a lightning rod. At the end of their turn, they may repeat the constitution saving throw to end this effect or douse itself with water as an action. Only one creature may be affected by this condition at a time. If another creature would be affected by this curse, the old one immediately ends.

At the end of a long rest, you may select a different option to gain its effects.

#### Better Stories
At 9th level, increase your golem’s Dexterity score by 2, and their natural weapon attacks gain +1 to hit and deal the same damage type as the resistance granted to them by their element.

#### Arcane Recognition

You learn the following spells if you don't already know them, as shown in the Arcane Recognition Table. These spells count as Golemancer spells for you, but do not count against the number of Golemancer spells known.

\pagebreakNum

#### Greatest of Legends (G)

At 14th level, your golem undergoes a final metamorphosis, gaining the traits of mythical creatures. Choose one of the following options and gain its features:

* **Hydra:** Your golem gains the unique abilities of the fearsome hydra, gaining a plethora of regenerating new arms. At the start of your turn, your golem regains 1d6+3 health points, and all of their natural weapon attacks increase their die size to 1d10. Whenever your golem attacks, choose one of the following:
    * *Snap:* Whenever your golem attacks, it may use a bonus action to attack an additional time.
    * *Constrict:* As a part of the attack action, your golem wraps the target in their snake-like arms, grappling them. 
* **Dragon:** Melee attacks and breath attacks by your golem ignore damage resistance to fire.
  * As an attack, your golem may release a gout of flame in a 20-foot cone or a 30-foot line that is 5 feet wide (your choice). Each creature in the area must make a Dexterity saving throw against your spell save DC or take 4d6 fire damage, or half as much on a successful save. This damage increases by an additional d6 at 17th level (5d6), and 19th level (6d6).
* **Gazer:** Your golem sprouts eyestalks and can channel magic through eye beams. Whenever your golem makes a successful saving throw against a spell or a spell attack misses it, it may target a creature within 30 feet (including the spell caster). The spell targets the chosen creature instead of the golem. If the spell forces a saving throw, use your spell save DC. If the spell has an attack roll, use your spell attack DC. In addition, it gains the following action:
  * As an attack, the golem shoots a magical eye ray at one creature it can see within 60 feet and rolls on the following table to shoot a random eye ray at them. Roll 1d6 and select the following effect from the table below.

| Eye Ray | Effect| 
|:------:|:------:|
| 1. Fear Ray| The target must succeed a Wisdom saving throw or become frightened of your golem until the start of your turn. |
| 2. Petrification Ray | The target must succeed in a Wisdom saving throw or be restrained until the start of your next turn |
| 3. Confusion Ray | The target must succeed a Wisdom saving throw or it can't take reactions until the end of its next turn. On its turn, the target can't move, and it uses its action to make a melee or ranged attack against a randomly determined creature within range. If the target can't attack, it does nothing on its turn. | 
| 4. Pushing Ray | The target must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be pushed 15 feet and have its movement speed halved until the end of its turn.  |
| 5. Enervation Ray | The target must make a Consitution saving throw or take 2d8 + your Intelligence force damage. |
| 6. Disintegration Ray | The target must make a Dexterity saving throw or take 2d10 + your Intelligence force damage. |

Your golem may cast *magic missile* as a level 1 spell. Once your golem casts magic missile this way, it may not cast it again until you complete a long rest. Your golem may cast this spell again by consuming one of your spell slots to cast *magic missile* at that level.

When you reach 5th level in this class, the spell is cast as a 2nd-level spell, and it increases again when you reach 11th level (as a 3rd-level spell) and 17th level (as a 4th-level spell).

___

**Like Creator, Like Creation**

You may take the Help action as a bonus action when assisting your golem.
___
**Magical By Design**

Your golem gains one cantrip from the Wizard spell list.
___

**Springloaded Finesse**

Your golem’s Dexterity score increases by 2, increasing its ability to perform tasks that require fine motor skills. If this upgrade increases the golem’s Dexterity to 16 or higher, it gains proficiency with thieves’ tools; if this upgrade increases its Dexterity to 18, it gains proficiency in the Stealth skill. You can select this upgrade multiple times, but you can’t increase the golem’s Dexterity above 18 using this upgrade.
___

**Hydralic Strength**

Your golem’s Strength score increases by 2, as your upgrades enhance your golem’s innate power.  If this upgrade increases the golem’s Strength to 16 or higher, it gains proficiency with Strength saving throws; if this upgrade increases its Strength to 18, it gains proficiency in the Athletics skill. You can select this upgrade multiple times, but you can’t increase the golem’s Strength above 18 using this upgrade.
___

**Factory-Made Toughness**

Your golem’s Constitution score increases by 2, as the materials and quality of your golem improve its survivability.  If this upgrade increases the golem’s Constitution to 16 or higher, it gains proficiency with Constitution saving throws; if this upgrade increases its Constitution to 18, it reduces all incoming damage by 1. You can select this upgrade multiple times, but you can’t increase the golem’s Constitution above 18 using this upgrade.
___

**Armor Integration**

You can incorporate a suit of armor into your golem, allowing it to calculate its armor class as if it were wearing that armor. Your golem is proficient with the incorporated armor, and it has disadvantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks until the armor is removed. You can remove the incorporated armor or incorporate a new suit of armor at any time, but it takes twice as long as it would normally take to don or doff the armor.
___

**Weapon Integration**

You can incorporate a melee weapon into your golem, allowing it to use that weapon’s attack profile. Your golem is proficient with the incorporated weapon and has an additional +2 to hit with it. You can remove the incorporated weapon or incorporate a new weapon at any time, but it takes up to 1 hour to do so.
___

**Attack Protocol**

Your golem gains one fighting style of your choice: Archery, Dueling, or Great Weapon Fighting
___

#### 5th Level Upgrades

**Sentinel**

Your golem can’t be surprised.

Once you use this ability, you may not use it again until you finish a long rest.
___

**Size Adjustment**

Your golem increases or decreases a size category, going from Medium to Large, or from Medium to Small. Regardless, your golem’s maximum hit points increase by 1 per golemancer level.

___

**Bulwark** *Prerequisite: Requires your golem to be Medium sized and have a constitution of 18*

As an action, your golem becomes a mobile shield. Your golem extends a large shield out in front of it. Creatures directly behind your golem gain the benefits of 3/4ths cover from attacks on the opposite side of them. This lasts for 1 minute or until it is ended as a bonus action.

Once you use this ability, you may not use it again until you finish a long rest.
___

**Like Second Nature** *Prerequisite: Requires Like Creator, Like Creation*

Whenever you take the Help action for your golem, you may do so from up to 30 feet away.
___

#### 9th Level Upgrades

___

**Push the Limits** *Prerequisite: Requires Overclock*

As an action, you can push your golem to the limits, granting it the effects of the haste spell for a number of rounds equal to your Intelligence modifier. At the end of the last round, it suffers the effects of haste ending as normal. Once you overcharge your golem in this way, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest.

___

**Capture** *Prerequisite: Requires golem to be Large*

As part of an attack action, your golem may subsume a creature they are grappling. The subsumed target is blinded and restrained. If your golem moves, the creature moves with it.

#### 11th Level Upgrades

**Extra Attack**

Your golem may attack twice, instead of once, whenever it takes the attack action on its turn.
___

**Hands to Help**

You learn the *flock of familiars* spell and may cast it without expending a spell slot as if you had cast it from a level 3 slot. When you cast the spell this way, it does not require concentration nor does it have a duration, effectively giving you four familiars. These familiars are made of the same material as your golem.
___

**My Will Be Done**

Whenever you cast a spell through your golem with Arcane Recognition or an upgrade, your golem can use a reaction to attack the target of the spell if it has a single target. You may use this upgrade a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining all uses on a long rest.

___

**Greater Good**

When your golem is reduced to 0 HP, it conflagrates into a death blast. Each creature within 10 feet of your golem must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, they take 7d6 fire damage, and half as much on a successful save. This damage increases by 1d6 at 13th level, and every other level after that. Your golem is left dead and requires a long rest or a form of resurrection as normal to get it back to working condition.
___

#### 15th Level Upgrades

**Angel Protocol**

The first time your golem would be reduced to 0 hit points, it must make a Constitution saving throw. On success, it instead stays at 1 hit point.

___

**Living Forge**

Your golem may cast *fabricate* at 4th level, but the raw materials must be made of the same material as your golem is made from. Your golem may substitute those materials with itself, generating those materials from its body at no cost to it. Once your golem casts *fabricate* this way, it may not cast it again until you complete a long rest. 
___

**Artificial Intelligence** *Requires Sentient Processing*

Your Golem begins to apply its abilities to learn new things, gaining one level in a class of your choice. Your Golem gains all the 1st-level features of the chosen class. This doesn’t include hit points, Hit Dice, or class proficiencies. 
	
For example, choosing the Fighter class grants the golem the Fighting Style and Second Wind features, but nothing else. You can select this upgrade multiple times, granting your golem another level of features from the same class or the 1st-level features from another class each time it is selected.
