A stone golem is created through use of a magical text or by a 16th or higher level magic user using the following spells: geas, slow, wish and polymorph object. Creation time is two months and cost is 1,000 gp per hit point of the golem.
The magic user can control his or her creation through simple commands. The golem can also be ordered to suspend movement until a particular condition is met.
Special Abilities
Slow Spell — A stone golem can cast a slow spell every other melee round on all opponents within 10-ft of its front.
Immunity to Normal and +1 Weapons — Only magical weapons of +2 or greater bonus can harm a stone golem.
Spell Immunity — Such a golem is also invulnerable to most magic, the only exceptions being rock to mud which halves the golem's attack and movement speed for 2d6 rounds, stone to flesh which makes it susceptible to normal weapons for one round, and mud to rock which acts as a heal spell on the monster.
