Note - you may only have one of these minions at a time.  You can't
use two clay men, or a clay man and wood woad, at the same time.

Clay man is the lowest level minion at level one. Requiring no special
components to create, the clay man has medium dexterity and good poison
save.

Wood woads are a level five minion that require wood to make.  The woads
have very good dexterity and cold save, but are weak to fire and lightning
attacks.

At level nine, bone guardians can be made.  Requiring a corpse, the bone
guardians are skeletal in form and have average dexterity.  While
resistant to poison, they are weak to fire attacks.  Being skeletons,
they are weak against crushing or pounding attacks, but resistant to
piercing and slicing weapons.

Flesh beasts are a level thirteen minion that require a corpse.  The blob
form is resistant to blunt damage but vulnerable to slashing attacks, as
well as poison and cold damage, plus they have the lowest armor class of
all the animated minions. The dexterity is also low on flesh beasts.

A metal construct requires level twenty three and metal to create.  The
mechanical form of a metal construct means that they are susceptible to
crushing and piercing weapons and have a lower dexterity, but also gives
them a good armor class as well as natural resistance to poison, cold,
and fire. Metal constructs also acquire resistances from the items used
to create them.

A crystal skull requires level 39 and un-hewn (usually freshly mined)
crystal, stone or glass to create.  The crystalline form of a crystal
skull means they are vulnerable to blunt damage but resistant to
slashing damage. They have a good armor class with medium dexterity.
They are highly resistant to breath attacks. They have the special
quality of being able to absorb magical and elemental attacks, then
use the stored mana to heal groupmates.
