Story[]

Dig[]

The Clawed Miner can be seen by the campsite on the Surface, either walking around or sitting by the campfire. He can also be met randomly in side-rooms of the Well, having faced a roadblock. He offers Shovel Knight the Treasures 180 he had left and wish him luck.

During a conversation by the campfire, the miner asks the Gastronomole whether Mole Knight is actually of their mole kin. He can also be seen sitting down at the camp with his fellow miners: the Oreman, the Prospector, the Lamp Lighter and a Canary Scout.

Wandering the campsite "Clawed Miner: Be on the lookout for lanterns. You might find a side room with a shop in it. That would be something, wouldn't it?"
Sitting alone by the campfire "Clawed Miner: I saw that bird, Altius, flying through the tunnels. Must've been lost. Was he trying to reach Shield Knight"
Sitting by the campfire with the Oreman "Clawed Miner: After being underground for so long, the vastness of the sky seems imposing."
Sitting by the campfire with a yellow Canary Scout "Clawed Miner: Both of us love minin', and we both love eatin' worms. I can see why we'd hang out as much as we do."
Sitting by the campfire with the Prospector, the Oreman and the Lamp Lighter "Clawed Miner: Everyone keeps telling me I should shop at Hoofman's. If it's such a great place, why is no one ever standing at the counter?"
Sitting by the campfire with Mole Knight and the Gastronomole "Mole Knight: My mole friends! The Secret Fountain is waterlogged. Do you need some aquatic gear and claw recommendations?"
"Gastronomole: The words you've spoken give me pause. What mole can just replace their claws?"
"Clawed Miner: Psst... Gastronomole. Is uh, Mole Knight, actually, y'know,
uh...
one of us?
"
First talked to in a side-room "Clawed Miner: Looks like I'm not going to make it any further. You should take what little gold I've got left."
Talked to again "Clawed Miner: Guess I'll see you back up at the surface, bud. Good luck on your dig!"
