	The shell is the body and armor of the golem. Golems of nebulous shape, such as Wind Golems, can exist but are highly complex and necessitate advanced Golem Hearts and spells, so conventional golems always have a shell.

	The energy is the power supply that allows the golem to function, and is typically called the Golem's Heart. As an advanced golem will burn through even a large mana crystal quickly, Golem Hearts are instead designed to draw in mana from their surroundings, effectively having a power generator rather than solely using some form of magical battery. There are rare unique Golem Hearts that can produce mana on their own, such as Unicorn Horns, Kraken's Eye, or [[Sage’s Grass\|Sage's Grass]] hearts, but the rare materials or difficult creation means that drawing mana is the standard.
