Your Constitution score increases by 2, and one other ability score of your choice increases by 1.

The dead do not age. You are immune to magical aging effects.

Most undead are jealous of the living, and tend towards evil. But some have kept the morality, or lack thereof, of the creatures they were before.

Your size is Medium. To set your height and weight randomly, start with rolling a size modifier:

Size modifier = 2d6

Height = 5 feet + 10 inches + your size modifier in inches

Weight in pounds = 270 + (4 × your size modifier)

Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Your body is dead, pain a distant memory. You have remarkable fortitude, represented by the following benefits:

• You have advantage on saving throws against being poisoned, and you have resistance to poison damage.
• You don’t need to eat, drink, or breathe.
• You are immune to disease.
• You don’t need to sleep, and magic can’t put you to sleep.

When you take a long rest, you must spend at least six hours in an inactive, motionless state, rather than sleeping. In this state, you appear fully dead, but it doesn’t render you unconscious, and you can see and hear as normal.

Your vitals aren't. You have increased protection thanks to your undead nature, which can be enhanced with armor:

• You gain a +1 bonus to Armor Class.
• You can don only armor with which you have proficiency. To don armor, you must bolt and fasten it to your body over the course of 1 hour, during which you remain in contact with the armor. To doff armor, you must spend 1 hour removing it. You can rest while donning or doffing armor in this way.
• While you 'live', your armor can’t be removed from your body against your will.

You gain one skill proficiency and one tool proficiency of your choice, half-remembered from when you were alive.

You can speak, read, and write Common and one other language of your choice.
