Selling a Golem


Rules Questions


So the group has used Dominate Person on an alchemist who has an Alchemical Golem, with him controlled they have had him order his golem to cease attacking.

Can they now order the alchemist to instruct his golem to obey their orders, effectively gaining the golem as an additional party member? Can they then take the golem to town and sell it? I can't see what's stopping them from doing either of those things unless I've missed something.

To be clear, I'm not looking to find some excuse to get the golem off them, I can work around it, just wondering if there's a flaw in this technique as I can't really find any rules on selling constructs or transferring ownership etc.


Its my understanding that a golem will always obey the creator, even if it was given orders to obey someone else. The creator's orders will always beat orders given by someone else. Its kinda hard to sell a golem when the creator can easily take it back.

Of course, the person who you try to sell it to probably doesn't know that.
