Description and lore
An armed undead combatant continues a conflict that outlived it. Blade or bow serves a purpose its living opponents may no longer remember.
A damaged position still has a sentry. The armed figure holds its place as though the unfinished conflict remained obvious to everyone.
Rot has taken much of the uniform. The practiced stance survives, and the weapon rises toward anyone who approaches the boundary.
