In the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game, the Cadaver collector is a Construct.

Publication history

The cadaver collector and the greater cadaver collector first appeared in the third edition in Monster Manual III (2004).[1]

Description

They resemble giants made from stone, with jagged metal armor binding them at such points as the head, the hands, the feet, the knees and the arms. Sharp red spikes protrude from this armor.

Cadaver collectors dwell in battlegrounds, and typically emerge from dormancy after a great fight has taken place. They are known as cadaver collectors for a grisly purpose; they pick up the corpses of the recently defeated, and impale them on the spikes on their armor. In other words, they collect cadaver. Older Cadaver collectors become completely covered in corpses, blood, bone, torn clothing and such, and really are a most grotesque sight.
