"You can't take it with you…but I can certainly take it with me."
- —Symon Schreiber, Grave Robber.[2a]
A Grave Robber.
Grave Robbers make their living among the dead.
Overview[]
Both medical and magical professions create a constant demand for fresh corpses, some for study, others for more sinister purposes. Obtaining such corpses legally is quite difficult, so physicians and wizards both have come to rely on Grave Robbers. It is a loathsome profession, but a profitable one. The freshest corpses can command exorbitant prices.[1a] Some particularly desperate body snatchers go so far as to take beggars and vagrants directly off the street![2a] The risks of this line of work are substantial. Watchmen, priests of Morr (the God of Death), and Witch Hunters all keep careful watch of graveyards and punish interlopers harshly.[1a]
