Keeper

Boneyard Keepers are creatures that appear in. They can only be encountered in the Soul Cairn during Beyond Death.

Equipment
They are much taller than the Dragonborn, and wear a semi-full set of dragonplate armor, minus the helm. They typically wield different types of dragonbone weapons, such as maces, battleaxes or bows.

Beyond Death
Upon meeting Valerica, she asks the Dragonborn to kill three Keepers dotted around the Soul Cairn. Once they are killed, it will release the magical barrier that is keeping her imprisoned.

The first can be found atop a large floating tower located to the right of the prison. The second is found south of the last keeper in an open ruin and the last is found within the courtyard of a medium sized fort south of the prison. Once all three are killed, they do not respawn.

Notable items
They usually carry a filled black soul gem that the Dragonborn can take from their ashes upon death. They can also drop dragonbone weapons, but not their armor. However, if the Dragonborn is at a low level, their weapons may not be lootable.

Bugs

 * It is possible that the Keepers' armor is the root of a bug which causes crashing within a small distance of the Keeper spires. A fix is present on the Skyrim Nexus which resolves the crash issue by switching the armor to normal ebony armor.
