This Dwarf Draugr Archer is a chilling fusion of Norse mythology and dark fantasy, featuring an exposed skeletal spine and a masterfully braided beard. Armed with a runic greatbow ending in beast-head terminals, this mid-tier undead threat is ready to guard your ancient tombs or haunt your tabletop battlefields.
A fallen dwarven archer rises from a barrow, gripping its runic bow while its skeletal hand twitches with necrotic energy.
A mid-level elite skirmisher or a guardian of a dwarven tomb that can pick off adventurers from a distance.
