Gold Defender
An animate gold warrior stands eternal watch over vaults and tombs, and destroying it melts the guardian into scalding, poisonous slag.
A construct of animate gold shaped like a warrior, the gold defender stands eternal watch over vaults and tombs, its blows landing with the weight of solid bullion. Destroy it and it does not fall quiet — it boils.
Death Throes When the gold defender is destroyed, it melts into worthless slag. As it melts, it releases a 10-foot radius cloud of fumes and a 10-foot radius puddle of molten metal. Creatures that breathe fumes are exposed to gold defender poison. Creatures that move through the puddle take 10d6 fire damage.
