The Three Mandates of the Constructed:
1. A golem shall not injure its master or, through inaction, allow its master to come to harm.
2. A golem shall obey orders given it by its master except where such orders would conflict with the first mandate.
3. A golem shall protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the first or second mandate.

More likely (to my mind, and in my campaign world:

1. A golem shall obey orders given it by its master.
2. A golem shall protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the first mandate.


IMHO, if you told the golem "Slay all who enter here," then leave, and then come back, you are in for a world of hurt. :D

Except that if you told it to stop, it would...

Eh Werk has always been a little creepy. That's why I like him! Next King of the Dark Creepers! ;)
