Whenever the Gray caresses the natural world, and indelible stain spreads. Darkness bleeds into the land, the sun dims, and the dead rise. Much of Athas has shuddered now and again under the Gray’s touch, and the land sprouts a bountiful harvest of zombies. From the underbelly of Tyr to the ruins of Bodach in the Salt Meres to the Dead Land south of Balic, undead horrors aren’t the villains of make-believe; they are the reality of which Athasians warn their children.

A zombie is the animated corpse of a living creature. Imbued with the barest semblance of life, this shambling horror obeys the commands of its creator, heedless of its own well being.

Ashen Crawlers
The ashen crawlers move along the ceiling (using spider climb) while looking for opportunities to attack vulnerable characters. They climb down the walls only when necessary, and they avoid the sunlit area at all costs

Corruption Corpses
The corruption corpse hurls globs of necrotic matter at living creatures until one or more living creatures close to within melee range, at which point it makes slam attacks.

Salt Zombies
Crusted with salt, these zombies grapple with their foes and drain the fluids from their bodies.

Zombie Rotters
Zombie rotters attempt to swarm the nearest living target and beat it to death.
