Adventure Guide Entry
The in-game Adventure Guide text for the Golem Lord Argelmach encounter in Blackrock Depths.
Argelmach's lifelong obsession with immortality drove him to forge enchanted constructs in his own image. Rumor has it that he has also dabbled in some form of black magic that would allow the golem lord's new creations to act as vessels for his spirit should his flesh-and-blood body be destroyed.
