Special Abilities
Sense Life (Su) |
A zombie can sense life within 30 feet, and once detected, are unshakably persistent stalkers. |
Relentless Hunger (Ex) |
When a zombie is reduced to zero or fewer hit points, instead of dying, it is replaced with a single Zombie Parts minion. This is to represent that the largest still-intact bit of the zombie continues to seek to extinguish all life from the world. When the minion is slain, the zombie is dead (but see "Immortal" in the Out of Combat section, below). Note that players should receive XP and treasure for killing both the zombie and the Zombie Parts minion, assuming they successfully slay both. |
Zombie Rot (Su) |
Any time a creature is bitten by a zombie, he must make a Fort save, DC , or contract the Zombie Rot disease.
|
Zombie
Zombies are corpses of the (fairly) recently dead, brought back to unlife through necromantic ritual, having been killed by other zombies, or dying on desecrated ground. They have no intelligence, and are driven only by a need to consume the living. While brains may be extra tasty, zombies are happy to eat any living (or recently dead) flesh. Indeed, all but the freshest zombies show extensive bite wounds from being near other zombies (or even themselves).
- Zombies are attracted to sounds, but can sense life when it is nearby. Once attracted, zombies will never stop trying to kill and eat their prey.
Combat Tactics
There's not much finesse to Zombie tactics, which are basically 'follow the living until you catch them.' Zombies are mindless and will always attack the nearest living creature or the creature that most recently attacked them. If a quarry runs from them, they will chase them until they catch them, or until a new living creature is closer to them than their quarry. Zombies will chase prey forever, since they are immortal and really have nothing better to do. If they've defeated all prey they've sensed, they will shamble aimlessly until they detect new prey.
- Zombies do not need eat, sleep or breathe. (Note that unlike Pathfinder zombies, zombies do NOT have the Staggered condition, and get a full action every round.)
Out of Combat
Immortal (Su)
- Zombies cannot be killed through normal means. However, zombies may lie shattered and dormant after being defeated for months or even years before their bodies recompose and they once again rise to seek and consume the flesh of the living. Sanctify Corpse (Spell), Consecrate (Spell) or Gentle Repose (Spell) will add a year and a day to the time it takes for a zombie to re-compose. Resurrection (Spell) will bring the person associated with the zombie's corpse back to life, destroying the necromantic bond on its corpse.
