Attacks/Defenses: Punch: 1d8 / Punch: 1d8 / Bite: 1d10. On a Critical Success for any attack, the victim must make a Save vs. System Shock or contract Undead Nightmare. Zombie Lords are proficient in all weapons and always carry many weapons with at least a +2 enchantment.

Feast Upon Brains: Zombies hunger for the brains of the living. If a Zombie kills a victim, it may spend 1 turn feasting upon its brains. At the end of the turn, the Zombie is fully healed.

Magic Resistance: 15%

Resistances: Electricity = 75%, Mundane Weapons = 50%

Immunities: Cold, Caustics

Weaknesses: Takes 150% damage from Fire and Silver weapons.

Create Undead: A Zombie Lord can animate corpses and turn them into Undead as a 10th Level Scaxathrom Priest. The created Undead will obey their creator unless an outside power supersedes the Zombie Lord. A Zombie Lord can control a number of hitdice worth of Undead equal to its twice its own number of hitdice: a Zombie Lord with 10 hitdice could have 20 hitdice worth of Undead followers, for example.

Description: A Zombie Lord is far more powerful than a mere Zombie. This horrid form of Undead results when a normal Zombie regains part of its former self, creating a free-willed and dangerous opponent. They use their powers to raise armies of the Undead to assault the living, and their own martial skills are frighteningly impressive.

A Zombie Lord appears as a towering humanoid with withered and decayed flesh. These beasts stand over 7-feet tall and are always clad in armour and wielding deadly weapons.
