The note describing the Miner can be found here.
== Appearance ==
Like many of the monsters in the Barren Lands, Miners have been corrupted by a unknown evil and twisted in aggressive monsters, While keeping a humanoid form, Miners show signs of advanced decomposition. The head is nothing more than a skinless red skull with bright red eyes that are sunken into the sockets. Bone can be seen protruding from underneath the skin on certain parts of the Miners, again emphasizing their decomposing state. They continue to wear their work clothes from before they were corrupted, though the cloth is torn and tattered in several spots. 
== Behavior ==
Miners will wander aimlessly in search of prey, producing a weak raspy moan as they traverse their surroundings. Upon spotting prey, Miners will chase down their target and swing their pickaxes as weapons.
== History ==
=== Chapter 1 ===
Miners can be found inhabiting the mines and cave systems peppered around the map. Some, in rare cases, can even be found above ground but not far from any sort of cave.

On this enemy, you can randomly find the following items as loot:
*Golden Nugget
*Bandage
*Tooth
*Healing Potion
== Trivia ==
* While wandering, their footsteps will make clinking noises, as well as constantly emanating pained wheezes
== Tips ==
