Undead Axe Land Club

Undead Axe Land Club (アンデツド・アツクス・ランドクラブ) is a giant undead crab that originated from the Katze Plains.
== Appearance ==
The crab was a fairly large one at that, much larger than a human, maybe even be bigger than Hamsuke. Its large body was supported by thin legs. And while there was no sign of any rotting or change in appearance like a zombie, the crab was indeed undead. Its thin legs are fitted with huge pinchers that are the size of logs.
== Personality ==
So far it is unknown on whether the crab is intelligent, however it seems to at least be able to recognize other undead like Elder Liches. Though mostly appears to be indifferent and ignores such beings, at least until its provoked or threatened.
== Background ==
There are many speculations about the Undead Axe Land Crab, but so far its origins are largely unknown.
== Chronology ==
=== The Phantom Ship of Katze Plains Arc ===
One of Ainz Ooal Gown's summoned Elder Liches that was searching for the Ghost Ship in the Katze Plains, spotted the Undead Axe Land Crab as it was traveling the plains. After relaying the crab's existence to his master, the lich as instructed by Ainz tried to get the attention of the undead crab. The crab though stopped walking, and stared at the elder lich briefly before resuming its walk. The crab though was tailed by the elder lich at Ainz's orders, as he planned to follow up on the new rarity, once he and Nabe settled things with the Ghost Ship. 
After Ainz took control of the Ghost Ship, Steel War Maiden, and coerced its captain, Greyrune, into following his commands, Ainz decided to test the Ghost Ship's capabilities against the undead crab. The crab still being tracked by Ainz's elder lich, was located by Steel War Maiden. The Skeleton Sailors onboard the ship, attacked the crustacean using their arrows. The crab was unharmed by the attack, but was provoked enough that it began to charge at the undead vessel. The crab rammed the ship and then began to use its pincers to further damage the Ghost Ship. 
Greyrun seeing his wife being destroyed attempted to come to her rescue, but was stopped by Ainz who decided that he had seen enough of Steel War Maiden's capabilities and engage the Undead Axe Land Club. The crab seeing the new attacker, attempted to crush Ainz with its pincer, but found its blow was blocked, whilst it was knocked away in the air by a swing of the other undead's staff.
After Ainz played with the Undead Crab, he then used [Undead Domination] to make the crab submit to him. It was then directed to board Steal War Maiden, and was assisted by the skeleton crew.Overlord Special Edition 02 Chapter 4
Later when Steel War Maiden passed by the walls of the Free City of Vadis, the crab was spotted sitting on the deck by the members of Fist. The presence of the crab puzzled them due to the incredulity.Overlord Special Edition 02 Epilogue 
== Abilities and Powers ==
The Undead Axe Land Crab appears to be a strong undead, capable of waking through a rain of arrows from crossbows unharmed. It uses its large body to its advantage to ram itself and swings its pincers at attackers.
The blow from the pincher gives the Undead Axe Land Crab its name as it has both bludgeoning and slashing attributes. 
== Relationships ==
=== Ainz Ooal Gown ===
The Sorcerer King took an interest in the crab upon learning of its existence, as he saw it was a rare undead that he wanted to collect. Ainz is perplexed at how the crab came to be in the Katze Plains, given crabs normally lived by bodies of water. An undead crab being on the plains did not make sense, which made Ainz suspect that there was a connection to it and the Ghost Ship haunting the area. Aside from his personal theories, Ainz decided to claim it and subjugated it with his magic, placing it under the care of Greyrune. 
== Trivia ==
* Due to the crab's existence, Ainz wonders that maybe that it was an ordinary giant crab and the Katze Plains made have been a part of a body of water. And suspects that perhaps the fog the plains produced comes from said body of water. 
* According to Ainz when it tried to board Steel War Maiden on the deck, it resembled a scene from a third-rate monster horror movie.
