Zombies

A zombie is a corpse reanimated by contemptible magic. Drawn from the grave or the battlefield, these undead often appear in tattered apparel with bodies half-decayed and dripping with worm-ridden filth. Zombies walk with a shambling gait with mindless persistence. While their movements are awkward, they are physically powerful. A foul stench of decay hangs heavy in the air around them.

Frost Zombie

The cold has preserved this Zombie, making it look like a normal corpse to the unwitting. Frozen flesh provides this zombie with extra defense and damage. Its icy grip is difficult to escape.
