Alternative names for fantasy “golems”?

Since it started as an inconsiderate name grab from Judaism that who’s most famous example was something built to fight against racists and prevent genocide into a mere monster.

While there are more dangerou golems, they were generally monstrous due to being overly literal or “what is life?” philosophy questions.

“Construct” in general is probably good. 

Maybe individual less generic names 

Puns based on golems are fine I feel to an extent.  And similar concepts aren’t inherently anti-Semitic, but you know…

From dwollsadvantures

Shabti? Or ushabti, ancient egyptian statues made to serve their master after death. Their legs are inscribed with affirmations of how they serve, sort of like a golem’s chem. They are religious, but a religion that hasn’t been really practiced for thousands of years

“Homunculus” (plural “Homunculi”) can mean “fake human”, “model of a human” (like an anatomy dummy), or “human shaped statue”, which feels appropriate for “magical object given a semblance of life”.

Kratt

Creature made of hay or tools animated by the devil in exchange for three drops of blood, from Estonian folklore.

They labor endlessly, but must be kept busy lest they turn on their creator. They fit the minion-of-an-evil-wizard role very well, and naturally fill that “magical robot” niche.

Item: animated toolset (but watch out)

okay here's the random question of the day. what specific word or phrase in your vocabulary is a dead giveaway for the local or regional dialect from where you grew up? like for me it's saying "chonies" instead of underpants. that's just very southern san joaquin valley/maybe southern california in general, but like, VERY southern valley

I say “Jojo’s” instead of potato wedges, I grew up in southwest Washington

Muriel Fahrion, the creator of Strawberry Shortcake and Care Bears, was under a work for hire contract when she created them and as a result has received no residuals over the last 40+ years. If you like either of those properties, consider purchasing something from her website. She has art and cute jewelry!

one time I had a dream that I unlocked a secret never-before-discovered achievement in Disco Elysium by squeezing into various nooks and crannies and got a special copotype called “Crevice Cop: seek out and inhabit crevices like some kind of man-spider” and I thought yeah!!! man-spider!!! crevice cop!!! this game GETS me!!!

and then I woke up to find that I had fallen partially down into the gap between my partner’s bed and the wall and was horrifically contorted and in agonizing bodily pain from sleeping in a position only comfortable to a brown recluse
