'''Unofficial Description:''' Zombies appear as animated, rotting corpses.<br />
Also see {{5ed|Zombie|Zombie Overview}}.

{{otherlore|Zombies are corpses reanimated through dark and sinister magic.

Because of their utter lack of intelligence, the instructions given to a newly created zombie must be very simple.|{{SRD3ref}}|3.5e lore|margin=200px}}
