Description

Corpse Carts act like magnets for Dark Magic, drawing their power from the land itself and re-animating the dead around them. When necromantic magic is thick in the air,  Dark Magic emanate from the corpse cart,  under the influence of this ominous knell, the dead are drawn back together and cadavers stagger to their feet. 

They work as the eyes and hands of their masters and when within a mile of their master they can be used as messangers.
