FIELD NOTES

By the beard of Paracelsus, look at this magnificent monstrosity! The Undead Golem, a staggering combination of the animate and inanimate, brought forth by that… *cfhgoregrinder*! It’s alive! No, it's un-alive! A walking, talking, groaning paradox! Note the brilliance of the lineage: We start with "Terra Golem" – already a formidable earth construct – and then infuse it with the insidious "Zombie Gas" (a putrid byproduct of undead infusion, Step 22). My theory, and it’s a beauty, is that the "Zombie Gas" disrupts the golem’s inherent earth-elemental matrix. The gas somehow forces it to re-align along necrotic lines, utilizing what residual energy remains within the stone to mimic life processes. Notice that “Undead” itself comes from combining “Fire” and “Grave” (Step 17) – the essence of preserved destruction! I cannot believe I missed this. The sheer necrotic potential, the unstoppable force of the earth animated by the foulest of energies! Imagine an army of these things! Now that’s what I call progress! — Prof. Von Clawchemist, Aqua Vitae 12, 1777
