This Dwarf Draugr miniature is a masterclass in undead horror, featuring a terrifyingly detailed exposed ribcage and a skeletal jaw set into a massive, braided beard. Despite his decaying state, his powerful, muscular frame and heavy plate gauntlets make him a formidable 'brute' for any cursed mountain hall or necromantic army.
A fallen dwarven warrior rising from his tomb to defend a burial chamber.
Acts as a tanky mid-level encounter, a guardian of a desecrated dwarven tomb, or a specialized undead lieutenant for a necromancer.
