User blog:Varzan Deodinm Beldinm/Have We All Forgotten about that Golem?

I find it strange that in a community as inquisitive as ours, not a single person has show any explicit interest in the Golems that appeared in Weiss' trailer and on that board game? We claim to know little of the Grimm, but we know even less about these Golems to the point where we don't even talk about em. I'm using plural, because if the board game is to be trusted, there are many of them instead of just one. So, here's what I think:

Atlas is doubtlessly a technological powerhouse, but surely they've dabbled into the darker sides of science to further their military power like any other past civilization would. Typically, Golems are suits of armor possessed by spirits of the deceased, or their souls are forced into one through black magic in most of their depictions in old European folklore. Interesting stuff if you want to read about it. So I'm thinking that perhaps an ancestor of the Schnee family line was either directly or indirectly responsible for the Golems.

Through unknown means, they could've been able to transfer a mans soul into these suits of armor, and when that became successful, they cleared house of all their undesirables like prisoners, criminals, or even volunteers in order to create this vast army. Atlas has apparently longed held the belief of taking men off the battle field, and perhaps this Golem process was their first attempt.

But perhaps slmething went wrong, seeing as a Golem is seen attacking Weiss without any hesitation. I'm guessing that eventually this Golem army went AWOL and was driven outside the kingdoms borders before they could do serious harm. Because you know, perhaps forcing a felons soul and consciousness into a hulking chunk of metal with a sword the size of a small crane probably wasn't the brightest idea to begin with. Now I'm guessing these Golems have an insatiable hatred of the Schnee family, or perhaps any Atlesian, and wander aimlessly.

Seeing as we know basically nothing about Golems, I tried to make this theory as open-ended as possible.

Have you forgotten about Golems too? Do they seem interesting? Are they even worth mentioning? Well, I have always had a thing for cool-looking, stylistic suits of Armor, so my answer is no, yes, and yes. I'll leave the rest to you all.
