Ossuary Gaoler

Warden of Charnel Vaults

  • Elite
  • Act 1
  • Melee
  • Elite

A towering sentinel assembled from calcified ribcages, skulls and the broken headstones of forgotten climbers. The Barrow Census built it to lock the uncounted dead inside deep bone vaults. The Gaoler crushes trespassers under stone fists, and whenever attackers try to breach the tombs it encases itself in plates of hardened bone.

The vault door closes but once. Remain within.

The Barrow Census bound this sentinel to crush the living who disturb the uncounted dead of the hollow vaults. Rearing its towering frame of calcified ribcages and cracked headstones, the golem lifts two massive fists of jagged grave masonry high above its skull-crowned torso. It brings them crashing down into the flagstones with concussive force. A shockwave of bone shards and grey tomb dust fractures the ground, crushing the trespassers beneath shattered stone and leaving them broken and stunned in the dirt.

Passive: bones deflect attacks, reflecting 25% of incoming damage back to the attacker.

The Barrow Census layered ancient crypt wards into this sentinel to ensure its ossuary vaults remained sealed forever. Whenever hostile blades or spells strike its towering frame, interlocking plates of calcified bone and fractured headstones grind together across its ribcage torso. The impact rings against the dense osseous plates with dull stone thuds, throwing jarring shockwaves straight back along the attacker's weapon arm while repelling the incoming blow.

Appearance

The ossuary golem is a monolithic construct elite standing ten feet tall, assembled by the Barrow Census from calcified human bones and tomb masonry. It has a massive, broad-shouldered torso built from stacked ribcages, interlocked femurs, and broken granite headstones bound with dark barrow mortar, crowned by a horned cluster of horned skulls. Its dense carapace consists of layered grave markers carved with census runes and calcified bone plates that grind together to deflect blows. It fights with two gargantuan fists fashioned from squared tomb masonry and fossilized bone clusters, slamming the flagstones to unleash concussive shockwaves of bone shards and tomb dust. Drifting clouds of grey cemetery dust and bone-white motes puff from its joints with every movement. Palette: headstone grey, bone yellow, crypt mortar black. Silhouette hook: a monolithic, square-shouldered colossus of ribcages and gravestones with massive stone block fists.
