Gholemoidians,Golemoid or Golemoids are A semi-humanoid race, also known as Golems whose orange bodies are silicon-based partially,in the outside and organic on the inside.Most Golem stand anywhere from 6 or 7 and 8' tall on average, with thick, virtually impenetrable stone-like hides. Their home planet is Ghollah IV, was a desolate

planet inhabited by the Gholemoidians. first from the sun in the star system in the Milky Way galaxy.At its best, it was barren, cold and constantly ravaged by sand storms winds. A Sidarean named Eldrad Khear created a barrier to protect the world from harsh environment and the Atlanteans created the basis for a new silicon-based lifeforms to deal with the environment. These efforts were for naught, since the barrier was destroyed and the Golem almost were made extinct,by the Tauron Empire.

Planetary History

Gholla four was harsh dessert planet,full of terrible winds and mighty storms-which is where the Atlanteans get the saying Like harsh winds of Gholla.from their race.Golem 4 was a silicon-based lifeform, native to the planet Golla 4, described as being "almost mineral" and "like living rock with heavy fore-claws,over each of the five fingers,that can be used for either climbing,digging or excreating acide,in either a mist or a spray." Golem is 8' tall and has superhuman strength,plus endurence to withstand it's planet harsh environment. The Gholemoid are coated with a flexible rock-like shell that was impervious to extremes of heat and cold, from 50 degrees above absolute zero to the interior of a small sun, pressure up to 100 Earth atmospheres, and concussive force up to a fall at terminal velocity from the limit of Earth's exosphere. The Golems were forced into slavery by an obedience disk and made to fight for their life in the gladitorial arenas. Golems was made to kill each other or other lifeforms placed into the arena against their will. Ttheir fact still haunts the golems to ttheir day.The Golem are based on a small creature, is a silicon-based lifeform from Golla VI. It is composed of a material similar to fibrous asbestos. They feed on rock, and thus they are nourished just by tunneling. Golemoids tunnel through rock like most humanoids walk through air, moving with the aid of an extremely corrosive acid. The exterior of a Golemoids consisted of a rocky carapace which was highly resistant to damage; any Golemoids but the highest phaser settings felt like no Golemoids more than a mild irritation to the Golemoids .


A Golemoids tunneldweller

[1]A Golemoids tunneldweller is a small creature,also known as a Gollar. The Golemoid tunnledwellers diet consisted of minerals which they dissolved with a powerful orange acid they secreted from glands all over their bodies; ttheir acid was also the means by which Golemoids could tunnel through their rocky environment as easily as a humanoid might walk through air. When Golemoids were afraid, they would lose control of their acid glands and squirt the powerful corrosive all around them. They also have the urge to tunnel to safety, although they can suppress ttheir instinct when needed, such as to not damage the deck plates of a Terran Federation vessel.On their underside, Golemoids had numerous cilia which they moved about on.


Etymology

The word golem occurs once in the Bible in Psalm 139:16, which uses the word גלמי, meaning "my unshaped form".[2] The Mishnah uses the term for an uncultivated person: "Seven characteristics are in an uncultivated person, and seven in a learned one", Pirkei Avos 5:9 in the Hebrew text (English translations vary). In modern Hebrew golem is used to mean "dumb" or "helpless". Similarly, its is often used today as a metaphor for a brainless lunk or entity who serves man under controlled conditions but is hostile to him and others.[citation needed] "Golem" passed into Yiddish as goylem to mean someone who is clumsy or slow.[citation needed].Actually,in Atlantean,the word Golem,simply referes to any silocon based humanoid lifeforms.The later meaning came much later on,once Atlanteans encounted other primative civilizations,such as Earth and it's many colonies,plus alternate worldline versions..

In actuality,a Golem is a large humanoid lifeform,encased in a hard,but flexible silicon shell like armor.The armor,is similar to a Terran Class World Turdle or Armadillo.Tortoises (pron.: /ˈtɔːr.təs.ɪz/Testudinidae) are a family of land-dwelling reptiles in the order Testudines. Like their marine relatives, thesea turtles, tortoises are shielded from predators by a shell. The top part of the shell is the carapace, the underside is the plastron, and the two are connected by the bridge. The tortoise endoskeleton has the adaptation of having an external shell fused to the ribcage. Tortoises can vary in size from a few centimeters to two meters. They are usually diurnal animals with tendencies to be crepuscular depending on the ambient temperatures. They are generally reclusive animals.

Biology

Birth

 Female tortoises dig nesting burrows in which they lay from one to 30 eggs.[1] Egg-laying typically occurs at night, after which the mother tortoise covers her clutch with sand, soil, and organic material. The eggs are left unattended, and depending on the species, take from 60 to 120 days to incubate.[2] The size of the egg depends on the size of the mother and can be estimated by examining the width of the cloacal opening between the carapace and plastron. The plastron of a female tortoise often has a noticeable V-shaped notch below the tail which facilitates passing the eggs. Upon completion of the incubation period, a fully formed hatchling uses an egg tooth to break out of its shell. It digs to the surface of the nest and begins a life of survival on its own. Hatchlings are born with an embryonic egg sac which serves as a source of nutrition for the first three to seven days until they have the strength and mobility to find food. Juvenile tortoises often require a different balance of nutrients than adults, so may eat foods which a more mature tortoise would not. For example, the young of a strictly herbivorous species commonly will consume worms or insect larvae for additional protein.

 ===Lifespan===

 The number of concentric rings on the carapace, much like the cross-section of a tree, can sometimes give a clue to how old the animal is, but, since the growth depends highly on the accessibility of food and water, a tortoise that has access to plenty of forage (or is regularly fed by its owner) with no seasonal variation will have no noticeable rings. Moreover, some tortoises grow more than one ring per season and in some others, due to wear, some rings are no longer visible.

[3] Tortoises generally have lifespans comparable with those of human beings, and some individuals are known to have lived longer than 150 years.[4]Because of this, they symbolize longevity in some cultures, such as [[]]. The oldest tortoise ever recorded, and one of the oldest individual animals ever recorded, was Tu'i Malila, which was presented to the Tongan royal family by the British explorer Captain Cook shortly after its birth in 1777. Tu'i Malila remained in the care of the Tongan royal family until its death by natural causes on May 19, 1965, at the age of 188.[5] The record for the longest-lived vertebrate is exceeded only by one other, a koi named Hanako whose death on July 17, 1977 ended a 226-year life span.[6] The Alipore Zoo in [[]] was the home to Adwaita, which zoo officials claimed was the oldest living animal until its death on March 23, 2006. Adwaita (sometimes spelled with two d's) was an Aldabra giant tortoise brought to [[]] by Lord Wellesley, who handed it over to the Alipur Zoological Gardens in 1875 when the zoo was set up. West Bengal officials said records showed Adwaita was at least 150 years old, but other evidence pointed to 250. Adwaita was said to be the pet of Robert Clive.[7] Harriet was a resident at the Zoo in Queensland from 1987 to her death in 2006; she was believed to have been brought to  by Charles Darwin aboard the Beagle and then on to  by John Clements Wickham.[8][9] Harriet died on June 23, 2006, just shy of her 176th birthday. Timothy, a spur-thighed tortoise, lived to be about 165 years old. For 38 years, she was carried as a mascot aboard various ships in Britain's Royal Navy. Then in 1892, at age 53, she retired to the grounds of Powderham Castle in Devon. Up to the time of her death in 2004, she was believed to be the United Kingdom's oldest resident. Jonathan, a Seychelles giant tortoise living on the island of St Helena may be as old as 176[10] or 178 years.[11] If this is true, he could be the current oldest living animal on Earth.

 ===Sexual dimorphism===

Many species of tortoises are sexually dimorphic, though the differences between males and females vary from species to species. In some species, males have a longer, more protruding neck plate than their female counterparts, while in others, the claws are longer on the females. In most tortoise species, the female tends to be larger than the male. The male plastron is curved inwards to aid reproduction. The easiest way to determine the sex of a tortoise is to look at the tail. The females, as a general rule, have smaller tails, dropped down, whereas the males have much longer tails which are usually pulled up and to the side of the rear shell.

Powers and abilities

.Rock-like Skin: The Golemoids possesses a smooth, rock-like hide as a result of  genetic manipulation upon certain lifeforms with a silicon based outershell process caused their musculature, bone structure, internal organ composition, soft tissue structure, and skin to greatly increase in toughness and density.

  • Superhuman Strength:

The Golemoids's primary superhuman power is their great physical strength. Initially, he was only strong enough to lift about 5 tons. Over the years, through rigorous training and further mutation, their strength dramatically increased to the point where he could lift roughly 85 tons. He has continued to exercise over the years using special equipment designed by . It is believed their strength has increased further, sufficient to lift at least 90 tons , and will continue to do say as a future version of the Golemoids states. However, The Golemoids has shown multiple feats of strength that would require a strength level far in excess of the ability to lift 100 tons such as successfully holding back a giant alien spacecraft from jettisoning from Earth


  • Superhuman Strength: Golemoineans is superhumanly strong and is capable of lifting about 25 tons.
  • Superhuman Stamina:
  • The Golemoids's advanced musculature produces considerably less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of a normal human. At their peak, he can exert themself for about 24 hours before the build up of fatigue toxins in their blood begins to affect them. Incidentally, The Golemoids's lungs are of greater volume and efficiency than a normal man's, enabling them to hold their breath underwater for up to 9 minutes, 
  • Superhuman Stamina: The Golem's advanced musculature generates consideraly bless fatigue toxins than the muscles of an ordinary human. He can exert himself at peak capacity for aobut 24 hours before fatigue begings to impair him. 
  • Superhuman Durability:
  • The rock-like composition of the Golemoids's body renders them highly resistant to physical injury. The Golemoids's body can resist extremely powerful impact forces, such as the force of a Jovian Primative’s punches (a Jovian Primative can lift/press far above 100 tons making their punches devastatingly strong). He can also withstand exposure to high levels of explosives, such as being struck full with bazooka shells, without sustaining injury. Their body can also withstand extreme temperatures ranging from -75 degrees to 800 degrees Fahrenheit for up to one hour before exposure or heat prostration occurs. However he couldn't withstand being slashed by 's atlantium knives,sword claws, and sustained some injury, making adamantium one of the few Golemoidss that can pierce the Golemoids's nearly impenetrable body.
  • 'the Golem s thickly scaled body possesses a high degree of resistance to injury. His body is capable of resisting high caliber machine gun shells, light anti-tank weaponry, temperature extremes, falls from great heights, and powerful energy blasts without sustaining injury.
  • ==== *Claws:====
  • The Golem's five fingers end with extremely durable, non-retractable, claws. Coupled with his strength, his claws are capable of rending most known materials. They are also highly effective digging tools that he uses to dig tunnels, even though concrete. 
  • the Golems’s entire skeletal structure, including his claws, has been artificially bonded to the nearly indestructible metal Atlantium. As a result, the’s bones are virtually unbreakable, and his claws are capable of cutting through almost any substance depending on its thickness and the amount of force he can exert. Due to thier healing factor, the presence of Adamantium in his body does not interfere with the bones’ normal function of generating blood corpuscles. The reinforcement of his skeleton enables the golem to withstand high levels of physical pressure, giving his muscles sufficient force to briefly lift/press several hundred pounds. Throughout his life,golemoids have used a variety of bladed weapons, most frequently daggers and, at times, swords. They can  also wielded many different types of firearms throughout his careers as a soldier, a mercenary, and a spy.


  • ====| Abilities ====
  • The Golem who possesses the ability to regenerate damaged or destroyed areas of his cellular structure at a rate far greater than that of an ordinary human. The speed at which this healing factor works varies in direct proportion with the severity of the damage Wolverine suffers. For example, the  golemoid can fully recover from an ordinary gunshot wound in a non-vital area of his body within minutes, but it took them almost two months to fully recover from injuries sustained in a duel with , which included one from a sword that went all the way through his trunk.
  • The Golemoid’s natural healing also affords him virtual immunity to poisons and most drugs, as well as an enhanced resistance to diseases. For example, it is nearly impossible for him to become intoxicated from drinking alcohol. He also has a limited immunity to the fatigue poisons generated by bodily activity, and hence he has greater endurance than an ordinary human. His agility and reflexes are similarly enhanced.

In addition, the golem’s healing factor provides them with an extended lifespan by slowing the effects of the aging process. Although over a century old, Wolverine is as healthy and physically fit as a man in his prime.

Golem also possesses superhumanly acute senses, making them capable of seeing things at a maximum distance greater than a normal human’s. Their hearing is enhanced in a similar manner, and they are able to recognize people and objects by scent, even if that person or object is hidden. Golem can use these enhanced senses to track any creature with an impressive degree of success.

Golem’s skeleton includes six retractable one-foot long bone claws, three in each arm, that are housed beneath the skin and muscle of his forearms. Wolverine can, at will, release these slightly curved claws through his skin beneath the knuckles on each hand. The skin between the knuckles tears and bleeds, but the blood loss is quickly halted by his healing factor. Wolverine can unsheathe any number of his claws at once, although he must keep his wrists straight at the moment his claws shoot from his forearms into his hands. When unsheathed, the claws are fully within his hands, and thus Wolverine can still bend his wrists. The claws are naturally sharp and tougher than that of normal human bone structure, allowing Golem to cut through most types of flesh and natural materials.

Despite the extent of his healing factor, the golem are not immortal. If the injuries are extensive enough, especially if they result in the loss of vital organs, large amounts of blood, and/or loss of physical form, such as having flesh burned away by fire or acid, a golem can die.


  • The Golemoid are formidable hand to hand combatant, relying on a combination of street fighting and wrestling techniques that allow him to make full use of his size and strength.

  • ==Superhuman Sensory Adaptation:==

Though their senses aren't superhumanly acute, their five senses can withstand greater amounts of sensory stimuli than the Golem could when they was a normal human being, with no reduced sensitivity.

====Expert Pilot :

The Golem are an exceptionally skilled and experienced pilot, proficient with many varieties of both conventional and exotic aircraft

Experienced Astronaut:

The Golem arehas also trained as an astronaut and was piloting.

Master Combatant:

He is uniquely gifted in the art of hand-to-hand combat (a skill The Golem arehoned long before he became the Golemoids), though their fighting style tends to be a rather loose brawling technique all their own. Ttheir style often incorporates collegiate wrestling techniques, Boxing (as he has been stated to have spent hours upon hours honing their boxing skills in the gym during college), and on at least one occasion even Jujutsu. In their youth, The Golem arewas a talented football player. | Strength = Officially listed as Class 90; (originally 5 Tons), now at least 90 Tons. In future the Golemoids's strength will continue to increase At its best, it was barren, cold and constantly ravaged by solar winds. A Kastrian named Eldrad created a barrier to protect Kastria and created new silicon-based bodies to deal with the environment. These efforts were for naught, since the barrier was destroyed and the Kastrians were made extinct.
