Knocker

Knocker by Stone Gargoyle

Knockers are supernatural creatures resembling dead dwarves and are mistakenly believed to be undead. What they are are carnivorous creatures which will eat living flesh as well as carrion who dwell underground where they are known to prey on miners. They are known for frequenting graveyards as well. They are blind creatures which track by smell and sense where people are by their heat, and they are most attracted by the scent of blood. They are sometimes found on the battlefield gnawing on corpses.
