The Gashadokuro is a creature from Japanese folklore, and it belongs at your table.

A field of bones after a famine. A battlefield where no one returned to bury the dead. When funeral rites are neglected, these forgotten souls fester, turning into a massive skeletal entity driven by collective rage and insatiable hunger that grinds inexorably toward the living.

This bestiary entry includes:

• A full D&D 5e statblock (CR 14)
• The real-world legend behind the creature
• Three encounter hooks you can drop into any campaign
• Notes on how to use it at your table
• High-quality 3D miniature files (GLB, STL, 3MF, FBX and OBJ formats)

Note on 3D files: files are provided as-is and are unsupported. No modifications, print troubleshooting, or repairs will be provided.

It is the primal horror of mass death without witness, memorial, or name.

Part of Folklore Reborn: Bestiary: standalone folklore creatures for D&D 5e, each grounded in a real legend from a real place.
