Melt Golem is a boss from Final Fantasy IV: The After Years. Two of them must be fought in order to break the barrier in front of the entrance of Eblan Castle. The fights, for the most part, are scripted. Later, they can be fought as normal enemies in the Subterrane of the True Moon, but are much weaker.

Etymology[]
In Jewish and medieval folklore, a golem is an animated anthropomorphic being, magically created from inanimate matter. The word was used to mean an amorphous, unformed material (usually out of stone and clay) in Psalms and medieval writing. Adam, the first man created by God in the Holy Bible, was a golem since he was created from dust and sand. Having a golem servant was seen as the ultimate symbol of wisdom and holiness, with stories of prominent Rabbis owning golems throughout the middle ages. In modern times, the word golem, sometimes pronounced goilem in Yiddish, has come to mean one who is slow, clumsy, and generally dimwitted.
