The Hoon Payont (or ‘Hun Payont’), is an ancient reanimated Golem effigy, with far back reaching roots. Its name comes from the word ‘Payont’ which means an effigy that has been brought to life by Sorcerous Magick. Hoon Payont may be made in various forms, such as the form of a Human, or some other Magickal creature, or animal, depending on the needs of the user, and the intended uses of the Adept who makes them.
