Borais: Borais are an unusual form of corporeal undead. Instead of being a dead body animated by negative energy, a borai has a mostly dead body that retains the smallest sliver of its soul. The two are inexorably bound, as the body draws vitality from the soul while the soul uses the body to remain on the Material Plane. Some borais are the results of partially botched resurrection attempts, either magical or technological, while others were people who were simply too stubborn to fully die when their time came.
Though they can be created almost anywhere, the highest “birth rate” of borais is on the planet Eox, as many of the undead who live on that planet experiment with necromancy and undead-strengthening science.

Undead, Undead Being, Undead Monster, Undead Creature: Some of Eox’s original living inhabitants, the elebrians, survived the cataclysm that destroyed the planet’s ecosystem in sealed underground bunkers, but the extent of the devastation made it clear that their old way of life could not be easily restored. Elebrian leaders conferred and decided to turn themselves and much of their population into undead beings, enabling them to survive on the surface. These spellcasters were the first bone sages, and many continue to rule the planet.
The Necroforge is less a city than it is an extensive industrial complex dedicated to the creation and study of undead, necrografts, and necromantic magic. Along with Orphys, it is one of the primary destinations for living beings who wish to augment themselves with necromantic implants and for necromancers who seek to become undead (often at the price of a century of unliving service once their transformation is complete), as well as for body merchants who bring corpses to Eox to be turned into new undead citizens or elements of necrografts and other experiments.
These are the lairs of evil dragons who have been turned into undead monsters by strange eldritch energies.

Cruel Undead Creature, Unknown Catastrophe: ?
Undead Monstrosity: In the chaotic years following the Gap, a gang of space pirates broke away from the Free Captains, finding their code too restrictive. Unfortunately for them, the small asteroid they chose to use as their base was the prison of a cruel undead creature exiled by the bone sages of Eox for unremembered crimes it committed during the Gap. The foolish pirates accidentally released the creature, who quickly slaughtered them all. Only garbled transmissions of bloodcurdling screams escaped the remote asteroid, which was dubbed the Abattoir by local Diasporans and summarily quarantined. Some believe the unknown catastrophe turned its victims into undead monstrosities, and the unliving pirates are rumored to occasionally set sail from the rock to add to their burgeoning armada of the damned. As of yet, no one has been brave enough to explore the Abattoir to prove or disprove these rumors.

Necrotic Mine: These disastrous weapons are forged of seething bone, flesh, and sinew and infused with terrible volumes of negative energy. These undead mines each contain a tiny portal to the Negative Energy Plane, allowing them to reconstitute after detonation. No one is certain who created this minefield, as it was in place when the Gap ended, though most point their fingers at Eox. No one group has committed the time and resources to disarm these weapons, but the Stewards have noted that the mines seem to self-replicate.

Cybernetic Zombie: A relatively recent threat—simultaneously attributed to Eox, the Banner of Purity, and a dozen other sources—is a series of outbreaks of cybernetic undeath. These appear to be the result of some unknown virus that causes augmentations to kill their hosts and reanimate the corpses, driving the new zombies to kill and infect others.
