The Golem Megid (ゴーレム・メギド, Gōremu Megido) is a golem-themed Megid created by Legeiel from the Phantom Beast-themed Gansekiou Golem Alter Ride Book.
History[]
The first Golem Megid was created by Legeiel on Earth through the use of the Gansekiou Golem Alter Ride Book, before using a blank Alter Ride Book entrusted to it by Legeiel, opening it and causing a large area to change, forcing all of the citizens within the area to be trapped in a divided world (the Wonder World). It later appeared before the citizens, starting chaos around the area by disintegrating a few buildings, making the citizens panic, as the blank Ride Book turned half gray.
As Touma Kamiyama and Mei Sudo confronted the Megid, it would use its hands to attack the two, before creating a vortex that tried to suck the two. Whilst the two struggled, it would continue attacking the town, before Touma confronted the Megid again, as it arrogantly explained that he would alter the world with the power of the book. Attacking Touma, it would express surprise, being attacked by a summon of the 'Brave Dragon'. As the Megid further arrogantly exclaimed that it would win, before witnessing Touma's first transformation into Saber.
The Golem Megid would face off against Saber, much to the latter's advantage. The Megid would even try to use the blank Wonder Ride Book's power to change the area to his advantage, to no avail as Saber was able to defeat the Megid, defeating it with a Rider Slash. However, it would grow into a giant size, though Saber would defeat it with the Kaen Juujizan. [Chapter 1: In The Beginning, There Was a Flame Swordsman.]
A second Golem Megid would appear again, implied to have been summoned by Legeiel again as its Alter Ride Book had been completed, according to Rintaro, as the Megid caused havoc in the surrounding area, though it would immediately be defeated by a newly-appearing Kamen Rider Buster, who defeated it swiftly with a Dai Dan Dan, much to Legeiel's disdain. [Chapter 3: A Father, and a Swordsman.]
A Golem Megid was part of an army of villains that was created by Asmodeus with the intention of helping the aforementioned evil villain to acheive his nefarious plans of creating a story of pitch black chaos. It would survive long enough to see its' master’s plans seemingly come to fruition until Touma Kamiyama had managed to help Shotaro himself regain his passion for drawing out superheroes which had, in turn, revived all of the Kamen Riders and the Super Sentai teams back into existence. Ultimately, the entire army itself would be wiped out by the full and combined might of Kamen Rider Saber as well as his fellow swordsmen and the Zenkaigers along with Twokaizer while being supported by each and every one of the Kamen Riders that came before Kamen Rider Saber as well as each and every one of the Sentai Red rangers who were the leaders of their respective Sentai teams that came before the Zenkaigers.
During the climatic final battle itself, it alongside both Wire Jamen and Space Ika Devil was eventually destroyed by the 5 Zenkaigers when Zenkaizer had utilized the power of the Akibaranger Sentai Gear. [Saber + Zenkaiger: Superhero Senki]

Behind the Scenes[]
Portrayal[]
The Golem Megid is voiced by Hiroshi Shirokuma (白熊 寛嗣, Shirokuma Hiroshi), and his suit actor is Yasuhiko Imai (今井 靖彦, Imai Yasuhiko).
Etymology[]
- The Golem Megid is based on a golem, an animated anthropomorphic being that is created entirely from inanimate matter (usually clay or mud) in Jewish folklore.
- The Gansekiou Golem Alter Ride Book is possibly a reference to 巌窟王 (Gankotsuō), the Japanese name for The Count of Monte Cristo (Shigai Shiden Gankotsuō (史外史伝巌窟王 lit. "a historical story from outside history, the King of the Cavern")).
Notes[]
- The Golem Megid is the first monster to have a Golem motif in the Kamen Rider Series.
