I have always liked the idea that a Golem could be used as by a player as their character in the game, instead of just something that they encounter from time to time or create (for the very very very long campaigns).
I've only done it once, in AD&D 2E, when a player lost his life but his soul was trapped in an iron golem. Now, in general, golems aren't the brightest light on the tree, but they care useful and fun to play as a NPC.
So, to make a short question long, has anyone else explored this type of creation as a possible player character? If so, what rules are placeing on the players?
Thoughts? Suggestions? Rants? All are welcome.
