#### special abilities
### Immunity to Magic (Ex)
A drakestone golem is immune to spells or spell-like abilities that allow spell resistance. Certain spells and effects function differently against it, as noted below.
A transmute rock to mud spell slows it (as the slow spell) for 2d6 rounds, with no saving throw, while transmute mud to rock heals all its lost hit points.
### Petrifying Breath (Su)
Once every 1d4 rounds, a drakestone golem can exhale a 30-foot cone of petrifying gas. Creatures in the area of effect must succeed on a DC 27 Fortitude save or be turned to stone as _flesh to stone_.
#### ecology
**Terrain** Any
**Organization** Solitary
**Treasure** None
**Advancement** 36–50 HD (Large); 51–70 HD (Huge)
A drakestone golem appears at first glance to be a beautifully crafted statue of a dragon, 12 feet long and 6 feet tall at the shoulder. Only when it animates, its stone scales rippling like muscled flesh and its eyes gleaming with amber light, do its enemies realize their danger
### Combat
A drakestone golem opens any combat with its petrifying breath, but otherwise relies on its devastating physical attacks to reduce foes to a pulp.
### Construction
A drakestone golem’s body is intricately chiseled from a single block of high-quality stone, usually granite, weighing at least 3,000 pounds and costing 5,000 gp. It must also be polished with rare oils worth 10,000 gp. Assembling the body requires a DC 25 Craft (sculpting or masonry) check.
CL 16th; [[Craft Construct]], animate objects, antimagic field, flesh to stone, geas/quest, caster must be at least 16th level; Price 175,000 gp; Cost 95,000 gp
