Gear		 Create Golem: With a wave of his staff, Lord Soban can call a golem from the ground, a tireless peasant laborer made of dirt and rock.
About: Like all the highest-level Lotus warlocks, Soban's researches have taken him on a unique path. His work blends clockwork and high wizardry to produce alchemical feats like his tireless servants, the golems. He is called "Lord" as a courtesy for his accomplishments but he holds no political sway, having always kept out of power struggles of the Lotus elite.

Behind his back, Soban's colleagues deride him as a mere tinkerer or mechanic, but his powers are genuine. The Wolf Clan's Shale Lord hero is a result of one of his experiments gone wrong.

Usage: He's the second hero I normally get. For his golems. Three golems = Three free peasants for training. The golems stay after he dies, so it's cool. At the end game, 2 golems + 2 peasants for food, and 1 golem + 1 peasant for water (from a well right next to the hut) does very well, taking into account hero summonings. He's a slow, clumsy fighter, so mount him to increase his longetivity and speed. He's normally part of my defense squad.
