Description
Amortal undead are a common problem for the denizens of the World Below, especially for the travelers on the Lowroad. They are manifestations of the necrotic faerzress that seeps through the rocky walls of the World Below. They appear as vaguely humanoid beings made of shadow and ooze, glowing a sinister green. Upon being damaged enough, the amortal undead discorporate back into the faerzress from whence they came.
Creator's Note: This is basically just a buffed up zombie to present a bit more of a challenge to mid-level parties without resorting to sheer numbers. The flavor is where the real fun comes in: the essence of death itself forming into a bloated, vaguely humanoid shadowy ooze with only the desire to snuff out life. C'mon, tell me that ain't cool!
