Living Poseidon Statue

The Living Poseidon Statue is a very powerful and hard-to-destroy unit that makes its appearence in the final mission of the Fall of the Trident campaign, in Age of Mythology.

Overview
It is an extremely powerful unit, with 20,000 HP, a whopping 300 Crush (and 100 Hack) attack, and very high armor in all categories. It is highly comparable to the Guardian in stats, though it is inferior concerning anything, save for HP, which is identical.

It is highly resistant to God Powers, including Zeus' Bolt. Only Arkantos in his demigod form can beat it, as he has an enormous bonus against it.

Fall of the Trident
It appears in the mission A Place in My Dreams as a must-destroy unit. It has been summoned by Gargarensis, who pleas Poseidon, the scheming Major God who intends to free Kronos and rule the world.

Poseidon in return, animates the Living Poseidon Statue, which leaves its pedestrial and prepares to fight Arkantos and his forces. In essence, it is the final boss of the campaign.

After struggling to stave off summoned creatures from Tartarus, and Gargarensis' forces, Arkantos eventually is blessed by Zeus himself, who turns him into a demigod via the Blessing of Zeus unique God Power.

After the statue is destroyed, its trident fall to Gargarensis' torso, brutally impaling and killing him. Poseidon failed to release his father and rule the cosmos, and in his rage, mostly sinks and destroys the island of Atlantis, save for some parts. Arkantos dies during this cataclysm, however Athena casts a spell and Arkantos ascends into godhood.

Mythology
"Poseidon's wrath incarnate. This statue exists only to destroy those bold enough to directly interfere with the designs of the mighty sea god."

Trivia

 * Seeing as Poseidon is the one who technically breathed life to the statue, this makes him the second non-Titan god to directly intervene to the battlefield, after Osiris.
