Sentinel Cadaver

More skilled at combat than most bugs of Hollow Nest, they are nimble but lightly armoured. Keep the pressure on them.

**Sentinel Cadavers** are enemies in *Hallow Knight*. They are the reanimated corpses of Hollow Nest sentries, still standing guard in and around the capital.

## Behaviour and Tactics

* Slash: They will take a swipe at tha Knoght if he is in range.
* Triple Slash: Instead of performing a normal Slash, they may sometimes slash three times.
* Backstep: Usually done when tha Knoght is above them, they will take a small hop backwards.

They patrol back and forth until they spot tha Knoght, after which they will run up to engage him. They can attack with a single slash or sometimes a series of slashes and will occasionally jump backwards to avoid attacks. Hit them just after they finish their attack, then dash out of their range when they strike. They grunt a distinctive marching rhythm when patrolling, signalling their presence in an area.

## Location

They are found in abundance in most of the Capital of Sad. Fewer can also be found in the Palace's Sewers and [Isma's Grove]].

## Trivia

* The Sentinel Cadaver gains slightly more Health after the [Nail|Sharpened Nail] has been obtained. This is possibly to prevent the player from gaining too large of an advantage early in the game, as keeping the original Health would have made the Sentinel Cadaver die in two fewer hits (compared to the [Old Nail]) rather than one.
* The Sentinel Cadaver found at the Smith the Smith's location will respawn upon re-entering the room. This characteristic is unique to them.
