ABOUT

This large reddish fowl is in the shape of an iron rooster.

Windvane golems are animated by lightning. They wake their allies in the morning, can tell which way the wind blows, and are only too happy to fall upon the heads of enemies.

True Friends. Windvane golems are surprisingly loyal and quite aggressive. They have a terrible habit of crowing at dawn. They are also very proud. Windvane golems who are given names will gleefully call themselves by it every chance they get, and take their assigned tasks very seriously with a single-minded tenacity.

Tireless Scouts. Windvane golems make excellent scouts. Their ability to predict and navigate any weather condition makes them particularly well-suited for inhospitable environments, and the fact that they never need to eat or sleep means they can keep watch around the clock.
