Hive Golems are large, spongy humanoid forms that are basically large ambulatory hives for some sort of flying insect. Most carry wasps or Locusts, but some carry much worse things... They're quite popular as guards among farming mages and weirdos.
Swarm (Ex): At will as a Free Action the Hive Golem can unleash a swarm to attack it's foes. A large Hive Golem can hold a swarm of Wasps (FF), Locusts (MM), a Bloodmote Cloud (LM), Bloodfiend Locusts (FF), Hellwasps (MM), or Rapture Locusts (FF). A Huge one can carry two of them. Should the Hive Golem be attacked, the swarm will respond without the Golem needing to use a Free Action. The swarm is considered to have total Concealment while inside the Golem.
Immune to Magic (Ex): A Hive Golem is immune to any Spell or Spell-Like Ability that allows Spell Resistance. There are a few exceptions as follows: Repel Vermin prevents the Golem from approaching if the Swarm is inside it at the time. Insect Plague acts as a Cure Serious Wounds spell on the Hive Golems swarm.
Combat: Hive Golems tend to unleash their swarm, following in behind them with their fists.
