"This unholy abomination will fall!" -- Emory

Necromancy, curses, or strange phenomena can bring a deceased creature back to a false life. The being is sustained by magic, not biology. Some undead are mindless; others are disturbingly cunning.

• Ignore the frailties of mortal existence
• Frighten onlookers with a reminder of mortality
• Employ dread powers

"Not so much fell as fell apart..." -- Basler

Being sustained by dark magic, the undead are equally vulnerable to it. Many cannot abide holy objects, places, or effects. Others are bound by orders to only guard a certain place, or do a certain thing.

• Weaken or expire in the presence of the sacred or the pure
• Fall prey to tricks or traps a thinking being could avoid
• Have limitations its creator didn't anticipate
