The dread snow golem is a large dread construct born of dark desire. It is nowise a mindless automaton, being created with the dread golem template and being at once conscious and self-conscious. The creature may be given an oversized humanoid shape or that of some creature native to an icy region. Meredoth, the darklord of Todstein, does not make dread snow golems. He is, however, the inventor, a little prior to 635 BC, of the snow golem, tales of which, not before 642 BC and more likely after 737 BC, may have inspired makers of dread snow golems.

The successful maker of a dread snow golem is obsessed. He or she spends 50 gp on personally fashioning the thing's body, which requires one week and a successful Craft (carving or sculting) check (DC 15) on his or her part. The ultimate animation of the creature is a "gift" of the Dark Powers.
