Golem

In Shaman King, Golem is a mechanic-like Shamanic medium created by Camel Munzer. It has a furyoku rating of 550.000, and is currently used by Redseb and Seyram Munzer.

History
The original golem was made in the first century by Jewish shaman needing a unstoppable oversoul and it was let loose during the crusades. Camel Munzer found some of the old plans to create a golem. He made a upgraded one with mechanical parts but could not power it. When Choco killed him The golem took his soul and used it as a power source. The golem passed to the hand of Camel's children Redseb and Seyram Munzer and they entered it into the shaman fight.

Appearance
Golem possesses the ability to transform into different forms. This alters its outward appearance dramatically, and also affects it capabilities. The following modes have been revealed so far, in order of appearance:

Normal Mode

 * Normal Mode: Golem's normal mode. In this state, it assumes a stocky, humanoid form.

Combat Mode

 * Combat Mode: In this mode, Golem appears much sleeker and menacing, and can use its weapons and combat abilities to its fullest extent.

Flight Mode

 * Flight Mode: Golem transforms into a large birdlike figure that is capable of flight.

Submarine Mode

 * Submarine Mode: This mode is capable of traveling underwater, even at great depths.

Irregardless, a diagram of the Tree of Sephiroth is clearly engraved on Golem's front, which is its distinguishing feature. Inside Golem is a single-person cockpit, as it was designed to be piloted.

Abilities and Powers
Unlike most of the other mediums in the manga, Golem itself is capable of combat. This is made possible though a special furyoku battery that was developed by Munzer; in effect, this setup effectively removes the need for a powerful shaman, and is the reason that Seyram is able to pilot it with a Furyoku rating of only 800. Nonetheless, the battery must still be recharged on occasion. A spirit is also needed to integrate the pilot with Golem to use it fully; in this case, Camel himself serves as the liaison. Otherwise, it is activated by voice commands, responding to names of the Sephiroth recited in a specific order.

Golem is also capable of regeneration, as long as the pilot is capable of functioning.

Attacks

 * Sephiroth Blast: Golem's most powerful attack is a beam of pure furyoku. Golem can also take the form of a Sephiroth Tree and fire the Sephiroth Blast from many lasers on its body.

Past
Alleged to be the animated being of legend, Golem was rumoured to be rebuilt into its current form by Camel Munzer. After his death, it became inoperable until Seyram manages to activate and control it. With it, the Munzer siblings, along with Asakura Mikihisa form Team Kabbalahers and advance to the quarter-finals despite not being Shamans.

Invading the Plants
Eventually, Golem is destroyed by Hao when Seyram attempts to use it to kill him.

Anime/Manga Difference
The Golem plays a rather big role halfway through the manga while it in the anime is barely mentioned and is only seen, belonging to an unknown family of shamans.
