Bone Golem
by John Walter BilesGolems are human-formed constructs, usually created as guardians and soldiers for some wizard or priest or other ritualist. The standard golem types do not appear in Mystara, but many Mystaran golems have arisen to take their place...

Bone Golems can easily be mistaken for a 4-armed Skeleton at a glance (Difficulty 15 Arcana check to tell the difference), as they are made from human bones. They are, however, tougher than most skeletons. Bone Golems are not too bright, but are smart enough to try to manoeuvre for combat advantage so as to kill most efficiently.
