The myth

The Wraith of the Sealed Necropolis is a MYTHENOR creation. Its setting, however, has history. The tombs of the New Kingdom pharaohs were cut in the Valley of the Kings by craftsmen who lived in the village of Deir el-Medina, near Thebes. They kept the tombs' secrets and depended on payments from the state. Around 1156 before the common era, under Ramesses III, their wages ran late, so they laid down their tools and marched on Thebes, in the first recorded strike in history. After the funeral, each tomb was sealed.

Why it has this power

An uncommon level 5 Undead of Darkness with 1700 ATK and 1400 DEF. Moon beats Wisp and Scarab beats Leviathan. Under the Necropolis Under the Lapis Sky it gains +500, being both Undead and Darkness, and the Embalmer's Bandages add +700.

The royal tomb builders of Deir el-Medina staged, around 1156 before the common era, the first recorded strike in history.
