Coyote Necromancer Miniature – Bone-Weaver of the Desert Moon

Meet the Coyote Necromancer

Across the sun-scorched dunes and barren mesas, legends tell of a lone figure who walks the desert at dusk. His shadow stretches impossibly long. His staff rattles with bone trinkets. Those who cross his path often whisper of seeing a glowing skull cupped in his paw—an eerie ember of magic that breathes life into the dead sands.

This is the Coyote Necromancer, a shaman twisted by ancient spirits, forgotten gods, or the hunger of the moonlit wastes. Part cunning predator, part arcane wielder, he commands the restless dead with a blend of primal instinct and forbidden ritual. With each step, he draws power from the bones beneath the earth and the whispers carried by desert winds.

The resin miniature by Yasashii Kyojin Studio captures him at the peak of his dark craft: one clawed hand gripping a glowing skull, the other holding a staff crowned with a horned effigy. Cloaked in robes stitched from scavenged scraps and adorned with the charms of the fallen, this miniature radiates both ferocity and mystic authority.

Designed with Yasashii Kyojin Studio

This sculpt showcases Yasashii Kyojin Studio’s signature blend of stylized anatomy and worldbuilding detail. Every angle of the Coyote Necromancer tells a story:

• A snarling coyote head, captured mid-chant

• A bone-tipped staff, crowned with a horned skull idol

• Arcane robes, layered with flowing cloth and ritual ornaments

• Beaded and bone talismans, hanging from a belt of necromantic trinkets

• Predatory digitigrade legs, grounded in primal movement

• A glowing skull held aloft, begging for OSL and magical paint effects

Painters will appreciate the dramatic contrast between fur texture, fabric folds, and smooth magical focal points. Its silhouette makes it a standout tabletop character or villain.

Whether painted in ashen grays, desert browns, moonlit blues, or glowing necrotic greens, this miniature becomes a showpiece.

From the Crafty Llama Tables

Night falls across the dunes as the party approaches a ruined stone circle half-buried in sand. Strange flickers of blue-green light pulse between the crumbling pillars. A shape kneels at the center—fur ruffled by the wind, cloak dancing like torn shadowcloth, staff planted firmly in the earth.

The Coyote Necromancer lifts a skull, whispering into its jaws.

The ground begins to move.

Bones rise from the sand.
Teeth clatter.
Hollow eyes glow.

With a low growl, he turns toward the party.

“Your spirits… will feed the desert well.”

Roll initiative.
