The golem regains 10 hit points at the start of its turn if it has at least 1 hit point. Trample. If the golem moves at least 20 feet straight toward a creature and then hits it with a slam attack on the same turn, that target must succeed on a DC 26 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone. If the target is prone, the golem can make one slam attack against it as a bonus action. ACTIONS Multiattack. The golem makes three slam attacks. Slam. Melee Weapon Attack: +18 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 43 (6d10 + 10) bludgeoning damage. If the target is an object, this attack is a critical hit. Vibration Burst (Recharge 6). The golem creates a grating, thunderous sound within a 20-foot sphere centred on itself. Each creature within the area must make a DC 23 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 44 (8d10) thunder damage and is knocked prone. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage and isn't knocked prone.

An adamantine golem's body is sculpted from pure adamantine. All other golems are absolutely inferior to the adamantine golem, with crushing limbs equipped with flying and water reactors, quick self-repairing protocols and near-immunity to magic itself, an adamantine golem is a mighty force to be reckoned with and an enemy very difficult to evade or ignore. Such golems stand up to the ravages of time, with all of them always ready to follow their orders until the end of eternity. The most remarkable difference between an adamantine golem and the weaker constructs is the proto-soul present inside its metallic clockworks simulating a humanoid self-awareness and intelligence: it is for this reason that adamantine golems have very high intelligence. That means an adamantine golem not only perfectly follows its creator's orders (or commands of the possessor of the golem's control amulet), but it can face up and solve problems and situations as any creature gifted with smartness can solve. Adamantine golems learn from their mistakes but they cannot gain real experience. The loyalty of any adamantine golem to its master is absolute despite the golem's intelligence. However clever they may be, adamantine golems totally lack personality, ethics, morals, and emotions, so they still are unaligned constructs. An adamantine golem's tough body is susceptible only to weapons imbued with magic. Unlike any other golem, the adamantine golem's structure isn't weak to adamantine weapons because its body is made of the same superior metal. Adamantine golems are the best guardians because of their supernatural enhanced and refined senses. However, their cost of production is absurdly high and prohibitive even for the richest amongst the wealthiest.
