Ebon acolyti, also known as altar golems, are statues or altars animated to aid in the sacrifice of sentient creatures to bloodthirsty deities such as Rovagug, Lamashtu, Asmodeus, or other divine or semi-divine beings. The most well-known altar golems include the Altar of Angazhan in the Mwangi Expanse and the Black Altar in the Midnight Temple in Egorian, Cheliax.
