Book three in the Darkness Rising series pays homage to the classic zombie movies of the past three decades!

Everything you need to put some bite back into your zombies is right here in this book.
What's The Lords of the Night: Zombies about?
The Lords of the Night: Zombies is a tribute to zombie movies everywhere, with a special 'Darkness Rising' slant to it. It's quite literally about zombies, but it's much more too. We've explored the creation methods behind the walking dead and there's an awful lot of cool necromantic content to this book. At its heart, this is a monster book.
How Much of this Book is Generic Content That I Can Use in My Game?
We learned a lot from Liches and the content in Zombies is very relaxed. You won't find anything that you can't easily and simply insert into your game, and while there's still a Darkness Rising back story, it's much more open ended - it ties the book together into a basic rationale behind why the Zombies exist but not much more.
Why Would I Want This Book?
If you love zombies, you'll love this book. We've taken the most popular zombie myths from popular television, books, games and movies, and translated them into a horrific gaming experience. Your players may look at zombies as the much overlooked creatures, relegated to the first level of dungeons controlled by weedy necromancers - but no more…
What's in Zombies?
This book is jam-packed with:
* Six new types of zombie complete with their own methods of creation. Use them as monsters, NPCs or even PCs in your game.
* Death is not the end… When a PC dies, they may return as a zombie, seeking revenge for their murder.
* Complete stats and background for a group of black adventurers; the seekers of those that would destroy evil.
* A zombie bloodline.
* The mysterious Manse: a haven for zombies and the seat of evil and terrifying setting for adventure.
* 10 new and original monsters.
* 3 unusual (and deadly) magical diseases.
* An exciting Necromancer core class, plus 3 accompanying prestige classes.
* 20 new and exciting necromancy spells.
* Hints and tips on putting the mystery back into your game (including a selection of the ever-popular scenario ideas). Notes on how to deal with slain PCs, resurrections and a whole lot more.
PLUS all the great artwork you've come to expect from a Bottled Imp Games release.
You'll never look at a zombie in quite the same way again.
Coming July 2004
