Hmmmm....
Well, when he isn't stomping through a city destroying stuff, the Graveyard would be a regular haunted Graveyard. Weird stuff happening, seeing apparitions, EVP's etc. etc. etc.
OH Also, another idea relating to the elemental Rock Paper Scissors thing you mentioned. So, since the monster would be a full Graveyard, maybe it could have a sort of Legion thing going on? Maybe it might not be outright demonic, but hte number of souls stuck in it allow it to tank what a normal dark entity wouldn't be able to?

So Eliya is actually outnumbered in this fight. That sounds good. He may outclass the spirits individually, even as his low rank, but that many at once is one thing that can slow him down.
Huh, so far this seems like a case study in the limits of Eliya. Hmmm. A twist is forming.

Well, another idea did just occur to me. Maybe the spirits that make up the Graveyard aren't necessarily malicious at all? Just stuck and angry?
Well, these things still need a cause. What triggers this graveyard to be a giant death golem?
Hmmmm.......
Maybe someone shows up and does something that really pisses the spirits off?
Like, maybe the Graveyard is bought by someone who plans to turn it into a hotel or something? Complete with some spooky old guy with one blind eye and a cane be'n all 'You don't wanna do that. The dead won't like it.'

I was thinking of something a little more deliberate. Last time it was people meddling with things they didn't understand (in spite of warning from smarter people). This time, why don't we play with someone maliciously bent on causing destruction?
Ok. Hmmmmm....
Like, how deliberate do you think it should be? Like, still be an unintentional consequence?

I'm picturing someone close to that graveyard and the people buried there. It might not even be an officially sanctioned graveyard.
So the Graveyard isn't an official graveyard. Maybe someone comes to try and shut it down?
I was thinking more of a dumpsite, the aftermath of some horrific injustice, and someone comes along to take justice by force, going a step too far.
Oh ok. Hmmm. IDK I was honestly picturing this being more traditional graveyard
Very well. We can do that then. But we already had the "tampering with the unknown," so that's why I suggested this be something done very deliberately.
Oh I'm sure we can still do something deliberate with this. We jsut gotta think of something
A cult? A cult tries to summon their god and it results in badness. Step one: Summon monster from a land of corpses. Step 2: Sacrifice a city to get your kill count high enough to summon the god.
The cults trying to get a tactical nuke in CoD
But seriously though, I like that idea :U

Woohoo! Is that all we need to get this thing started? Are we missing anything?
Hmmmm... Well, we should figure out the Graveyard's powers first
Good point. Well, I think you should have first go at the ideas. Whatever you think is awesome put it on the table.
Well I had the idea that it could have some form of limited shapeshifting.
That's always good. What about some sort of passive ability, like he spreads despair and sorrow or some other form of torment just by standing near places. Its sheer size would make this effect all the more overpowering. Eliya is unaffected by these types of curses, though. It takes more of the spiritual equivalent of brute force to harm him.
