Totally valid critique.

I grew up with the golem as a bedtime story, and those stories tended to focus more on the guardian aspect than the investigator aspect. So for me, the iconic depiction of the golem is "indestructible protector of the powerless". The PC who inspired this Skin was a golem who skewed so far towards guardian that his guiding philosophy was "every life is precious except for mine".

That said, "golem as investigator" is definitely a core element of the folklore, and I would absolutely *love* to see someone create a MotW or Urban Shadows playbook that explored that angle.

And, yeah, for a Skin whose sense of self and ability to consent are so heavily compromised, I would have felt *really* uncomfortable including a Sex Move.

You know what, I'll take it.

Out of curiosity, though, what makes you feel like Golems aren't a good fit for Monsterhearts? And what do you feel that I got right that the other homebrews you've seen were missing?
