Towering over the battlefield, the Undead Graveyard Golem is a horrific fusion of cemetery architecture and necromantic power. Featuring a trapped skeleton within its barred chest and a gnarled dead tree erupting from its back, this massive construct is the perfect centerpiece for any horror-themed tabletop encounter.
A monstrous construct made of graveyard debris stands guard, waiting to crush intruders with its massive limbs.
A major boss encounter at the end of a dungeon, a regional 'Legendary' threat guarding a cursed necropolis, or a high-level necromancer's ultimate bodyguard.
