Suit of Lava Golems

Description
The Suit of Lava Golems is a special suit and not a member of the court. They are unlocked after the player finds the underground caverns encounter, and intervenes. After this encounter three locked cards enter the encounters deck. They can also be found in other encounters, but very rarely. They are typically encountered in groups of one or three. They resemble lava monsters carrying big hammers.

Upgrades

 * None. Only court members get upgrades.

Tactics
Lava golems are both easy and hard to deal with. If they player isn't quick to roll away, they can quickly defeat the player. They have three attacks. A wide swing that can be countered, a downward smash that cannot be blocked, and a close range explosive attack. The golems will only use the explosive attack if the player is nearby. It is fairly close range, so one roll away and the player is safe. Lava golems will not fall over like other enemies, if they have any health left.

The lava golem encounter card typically takes place in the trapped river crossing arena. If they player wishes to avoid damage, it is entirely possible to run around the arena and bait the traps so the lava golem hits them.
