Backstory

Origins

Golem's past is not well known. He is a mass of dirt and mud made sentient by magic, though it's currently unknown who brought him to life.

Criminal Career

The specifics of Golem's crimes—aiding and abetting, disturbing the peace, and vandalism—remain unclear. Most likely he was following orders from his creator. At some point, he either broke free of his creator's control or began questioning their orders, ultimately helping authorities arrest his creator.

Joining the Phoenix Program

After his creator's arrest and his newfound freedom, Golem joined the SDN's Phoenix Program to learn more about being a free, sapient being and find new purpose in his life.

Appearance

Golem is a large monster made of clay, dirt, mud, and rocks, with spare mechanical plates and tubing incorporated into his form. He is mostly humanoid in shape with two legs, two arms, a head, and yellow eyes. He has difficulty squeezing through doors due to his massive size.

Personality

A peace-loving sentient mud giant, Golem is as chill as he is tall. Very few things emotionally affect him, and he rarely deviates from his laid-back personality, even while on duty. Key personality traits: - Laid-back: His relaxed demeanor may stem from his tendency to drink frequently - Emotional when pushed: When upset, he goes to extremes—binge drinking and crying when Invisigal gets suspended - Animal lover: Immediately offers to adopt a baby kaiju on one dispatch; befriends a tiger disguised as a cat on another
