	The snow golem is a large [[magic\|magical]] [[animation\|animated]] [[construct]] and as such lacks the [[dread golem]] template. It is a [[mindless]] automaton that obeys in the most straightforward way possible the orders of its [[Crafter\|maker]], drawing no conclusions and taking no initiative. The creature will not resort spontaneously to special actions such as [[tripping]] or [[disarming]], but it may either be given a specific instruction to make one such attack or may be directed as necessary by a maker who is immediatley at hand. When issuing instructions to the [[animate]] [[item\|thing]], its maker is wise to error on the side of simplicity. The creature is usually lent the shape of an oversized [[humanoid]] or that of some creature native to an icy region. [[Meredoth]], the [[darklord]] of [[Todstein]], [[invention (Monstrous)\|invented]] the [[snow golem]] a little prior to [[635 BC]]. Tales of its existence may have leaked out as early as [[642 BC]] but more likely after [[737 BC]].
