In-Game Description
A silver-black shield imbued with the
power of dark.
The equipment of the wardens of the

and permeated by its power.
The grave wardens are said to know the name
of every guest who rests in the crypt,
no matter how long they have been with them.
Availability
Spear-and-shield wielding Grave Warden drop.
