Cranite is a durable golem guy who can be played as a lane support or even partly as a ganker.

Granite Golem would also work I guess, but it feels a little plain and crystals in his appearance/abilities/lore would have to be reworked to stones/granite etc :p

Lore[]

The woods slumbered, the rivers basked under a full moon. In a nearby cave known for it's precious and beautiful crystals, something magical was about to happen. The cave entrance itself was located behind a big, big waterfall called Sienna's Tears. The waterfall itself flew into the Sienna Lake, which had a river connected to it which ran through the entire woods...

In this very night, the moon shined brighter than ever. The lake reflected the light into the cave. It's mystical magical power had been utterly strong, and it shined onto a cyan crystal in the cave which slowly began to move soon after... It rose from the rocky ground, grew arms, legs, and even had a face. The crystal itself had turned into something you could call a "crystal golem", so to say.

Knowing nothing about his sudden appearance, he hears a beautiful voice outside and runs quickly outside, just to catch a glimpse of a water elemental rising out of the lake and moving through the woods. If he thought about it (with his limited ability to), the first thing that sprung to his mind that that elemental had awakened him. He was so touched by it that he wanted to call her a beautiful moon goddess when he was able to talk to her.

But he wouldn't. He ran as fast as he could after the water elemental, both of them under the shining full moon. The golem ran as fast as he could, but soon was exhausted and the water elemental had left his sight. Not sure what to do with his life, he moved away from his cave and went to search a nearby village. He set out on a quest to see the water elemental again. On his journey, he had also been given the name "Cranite" for no particular reason other than it sounded like a name which would fit him.

With every night that passes, Cranite thinks of the water elemental that he thinks brought him to life. He doesn't know much, if he knows anything, about this world, and he yet has to learn. But his determination will get him to his goal one day.

"The more solid the rock, the more determined they are." - Cranite
