Frosty the golem
He fashioned ice into a shiv
He was stood in place with a placid face
Roll for initiative
63There must have been some magic in
That elder rune they found
For when they carved it in his head
He began to slash and pound30Oh Frosty the golem
Gave new meaning to set slay
He'd kill kids and pets
Leaving nothing left
Laughing all the way

A gargoyle (crafted as a construct to protect a religious order) in the campaign I'm currently in is called Emet, which to my understanding is how אמת is pronounced (translating to truth). In the myth, removing א from their name makes it מת, death, and the golem dies. The pronunciation changes from Emet to Met and I'm always a little interested to see if this will pop up in some from in the game.
34You are correct, it is pronounced Emet. In the golem story the word Emet or Met is just the activation word, the golems is actually alive because the full name of the lord (which is like 200~ letters) was carved into a tablet and put inside the golem.

Down through the village,
Not a single soul survived,
He froze and ripped and slashed and crushed,
Not a one could be revived.
21I know that the post is a joke but in Hebrew, the name for God is יחוח which are the hebrew characters Yod Hei Waw Hei
14No wonder NIN is so good

depends on who you ask ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ also the Hebrew here translates to truth, so I'm confused what your point is
7Just to complete the fun fact, the way to kill a golem is to erase the א leaving מת, which translates to "dead"

You mixed up ח and ה, unless you're just trying to censor the name itself
6That word does have power. I tried to copy and paste it and it just totally fucked the input box up 😳
5Yuh. I originally put the actual tetragrammaton and it ended up censoring it, itself.

1In Hebrew, there are many names for God - some of which are plural (a remnant from when Judaism was polytheistic).
It's also vav, not waw. The sound is a v.
Hard to forget a decade of Hebrew school.
0Vav is a product of ashkenaszi pronunciations due to yiddish. Originally it's Waw. And the multiple names for God thing comes from Kaballah which certain groups of Jews actually do reject as mysticism and not originally being grom Judaism but added in after the second temple period due to the Zohar. Certain groups such as the Kairaites for example, even reject the Talmud, Mishnah, and Kaballah and stick to Torah and Tanakh only
