Golem
Golems are creatures from Jewish mythology, animated humanoid creatures made from inanimate material (typically clay) brought to live by holy words by Rabbis. Purposes for making a golem includes killing the fuck out of antisemitic mobs. Comparable myths about animated statues can be found in other places.
Golems in Dungeons and Dragons
In D&D, Golems are mid-tier enemies. There's about as many kinds of Golem as there are things you could potentially make Golems out of, from quasi-robot Steel Golems to quasi-Frankenstein's Monster Flesh Golems. You could even use clay, if you're weird.
