What is a Golem?

A Golem is a hunk of clay which is shaped into human form and brought to life by a mystic rabbi with proper spiritual focus in order to protect his community. When clay is unavailable, gold may be used but the resulting Golem is less helpful for defense purposes, and is typically distracted by interesting puzzles.


Why are they obsessed with finding the one ring?

No, no, you're thinking of Gollum, who is something else entirely.
