The Black Cleaver

"He is merely a Cleaver, albeit one of their best. He is also dead, self repairing and somewhat unstoppable."

- Solomon Wreath on The White Cleaver. The White Cleaver, later resurrected and renamed as the Black Cleaver, was originally just a normal Cleaver, a group of soldiers/bodyguards for the various sanctuaries until he was captured and experimented on by Neferain Serpine. He was transformed into a self healing zombie and was used by Serpine in an attempt to kill Valkyrie Cain and as a bodyguard but would abandon him during the assault on the Irish Sanctuary. It was later discovered that because he was resurrected by necromancy magic he was technically under the control of the Necromancy Temple based in Ireland and it was they who broke Serpine's command over him.

Now working for the necromancers he took part in the Battle of Aranmore Farm as part of the Necromancer Contingency and would continue to serve them up until he was torn apart by Lord Vile. However even being ripped into pieces was not enough to kill him and after being gathered up by Vaurien Scapegrace he was put back together by Nye and renamed the Black Cleaver, serving the mysterious and untrustworthy Madame Mist.
