A terrifying fusion of necromancy and architectural horror, the Graveyard Golem stands as a 105mm tall testament to the power of the dead. This massive construct carries an entire burial ground upon its shoulders, wielding a heavy stone coffin and a colossal skeletal claw to pulverize any who dare trespass in its domain.
A massive pile of cemetery soil and remains has risen to life, carrying the very graves it was meant to hold as it lumbers toward an intruder.
A final boss for a necromancy-themed dungeon or a world-event monster that terrorizes a city's catacombs.
