Feisev Warden Wight - Undead 4 4UNCOMMONBLACKMEDIUMUNDEADWIGHT
Zealous guardians of Forgotten Homesteads, and land grants intended to cull the untamed Vrur Steppe, warden wights were bound in a necromantic vow to defend the Vrur Margave from lawless invaders. Thier vows are recorded in Necril etchings on their Gaffs that served as symbols of their office. Particularly proud and ambitious royals and landowners sought out officers to transform into warden wights to guard their lands for all time. As guardians of the margrave, warden wights are supernaturally bound to the armaments they wore during the administration of their vow. They can spread their necromantic powers into the weapons they wield. A strike from a warden wight's gaff channels life from the victim into the wight.

Cairn Wight Dirges
Unlike a typical wight, cairn wights have an unusual affinity for music. The lyrics of their dirges often contain a valuable bit of knowledge or long-lost lore, possibly the greatest treasure a cairn wight guards. There are even brave souls who seek out the creatures to listen to their songs in hopes of finding profit from the dry, rasping words. - Wightspawn
