Corpse Thief

(image) (image)

In order to create their undead armies, necromancers need lots of corpses. A very long time ago,
a large army was lured into the swamp and killed. So there is a large supply of corpses in the swamp. But sometimes,
it is a lot of work to find them because they are distributed all over the large Ural swamp and you the necromancers
cannot really control which kinds of corpses they find. So if they need something special for their experiments, for
example a particularly large corpse, they often let their assistants steal corpses from the Artonian graveyards or
before they are buried. This is, however, a very dangerous task since relatives and guards are not very happy about
that, so it requires a lot of skills to sneak into the cities at night and steal the corpses.
