Draugr

No Mercy, No Pain, for my purpose is to serve and not gain. Those who dare tread near shall know fear and will grovel in a pool of their own tears. None shall take hold of what is under our charge, for we have promised to protect with the utmost care. So come and take it form us if you care to dare - Chant of the Draugr

Far within the crypts and old places of Norria lies a creature that should not be underestimated. The Draugr is a kind of undead that very few ever get to see for they are smarter and think like any living man. But are bound to a purpose that they must fulfill. This purpose is often guarding or protecting items or places that it has been assigned to after it was resurrected. Of course the existence of this creature should not be possible, but it most like the creation of Warlock Lords back when the Warlock Dominions ruled Norria. Though how this form of necromancy was accomplished has all and many never be discovered as it was lost when they feel. But many of the ruins where the Warlock Lords once ruled are said to be filled with them. Including places where they kept their secrets and knowledge away from thieves. They have even been known to dig tunnel all around the places they stay in to get around faster and at an alarming rate too.
