Background

Stitchflesh and his assistants normally operated in the Stitchyard of the House of Constructs.^[1] Long ago, the surgeon worked with Rathan in the Body Banks to create the construct body for the "Slaughter Daughter" Emeni.^[2]

After his death, Stitchflesh's assistants Malkrex and Sharrex carried on his work of creating constructs from kyrian flesh, with Sharrex, in particular, claiming credit for completing the surgeon's research by creating the Soulfused Construct.^[3] Even after the assistants were slain^[4] and the Soulfused Construct was liberated from its creators by the Maw Walkers and their allies,^[5] Stitchflesh's remaining followers continued using the late surgeon's designs for kyrian constructs until the kyrian and Necrolord covenants put a stop to it during their assault on the Construct stronghold.^[6]^[7]

Adventure Guide

Surgeon Stitchflesh is the mastermind behind the grisly abominations that are deployed from the floating fortress of Zolramus. He bends to his task with maniacal fervor, crafting the flesh of fallen enemies into undead constructs to be used in Maldraxxus' wars.
