Argós Tardus, or simply Argós, is a stone golem of mysterious origins that is constantly traveling for survival.

Argós is a golem who has no fixed home. Sometimes, he stays in non-colonized areas such as forests and alike, collecting important and rare resources that will later be sold in urban centers. He'll often construct a non-permanent base that will be able to reside him for one week or more. After some time, he moves to cities and villages, in which he sells the valuable items he's found during his last stay in the wilds. The money is then spent in temporary stays in taverns or hostels and in the acquisition of goods that are necessary (food, basic materials) or have some sort of significance to him (books). After the money ends, he returns to the wilds, and the cycle repeats with more or less variations.
It's possible for him to spend more time than usual in nature (three weeks or more) due to environmental advantages such as easy access to food and lack of predators. In urban scenarios, Argós can also go beyond just purely stay in the city and go to libraries or enjoy local pleasures and festivities. He can also do jobs and perform quests, which can delay his eventual exit from the city.
The golem's constant traveling from place to place and his relative "insignificance" in the societies that are visited result in Argós being a not-well known person. In some cases, he can become some sort of local legend, due to his uniqueness as a traveling golem, who appear to be quite rare in the world of Arethil.

Argós' current tools/weapons include:
- A big one-handed iron axe which, due to its' size and sharpness, is used both for attacking and cutting wood;
- A big pickaxe which is not good at mining small ores, but fantastic at extracting big quantities of minerals;
- A lantern which consists of a candle trapped within a metallic shell.
Argós currently stores his items in a big black backpack sack that is able to carry up to ~22.6796185 kg/50 lbs. Other sacks of somewhat similar capacities are used, but his main items often stay only in his backpack sack.
Argós doesn't have any armor, as his stone-made body is very resilient and, in a way, works as a natural armor against attacks.

Due to being a golem, Argós is able to sustain heavy damage and lift weights up to 100 kg/~220.4623 lbs. This comes at the cost of being both slower than an average human and weaker against attacks that involve water.
Beyond his natural abilities, Argós has developed substantial skills in areas such as fighting - being very good at using his greataxe - and manufacturing - being very good at crafting essential items and structures to survival - due to his years spent in the wilds. Being a really curious and thoughtful person, he has also dedicated a lot of time and effort in gaining knowledge, resulting in a level of wisdom that is somewhat above the average person and below the actual masters.
