Playing Undead?

[Patman21967]

The book titled "Undead" by AEG is very, very good for this. I am presenting one of my players the opportunity to play a Mummy Paladin briefly...we'll see how it goes

It's not much different from playing dead; instead of lying completely still, you just have to growl and eat brains occasionally.

There's also the Ghostwalk campaign option book by Monte Cook and Skip Reynolds (?). Which, due to some stupid decisions by WotC - namely, releasing it as a 3.0 book mere months before the release of 3.5 - has been greatly overlooked. Some interesting material in there.

Are there any published rules for playing undead in 3.5? If so, where?

Offhand, I would say, the Monster Manual 3.5.

You do know that it had a web enhancement that updated it to 3.5E right?

Yeah, but the problem wasn't only that it was immediately out of date - it got lost in the shuffle, and got very little support...

Lets see......why did I buy Libris Mortis?

Oh, yeah! To be able to play undead in a game and to roleplay them better as NPCs as a GM.

What are you thoughts on playing undead characters in 3.5?

Is Mouseferatu really undead?

As others have said, Libris Mortis has some rules. As for Mouseferatu, he doesn't seem like an undead, but then again, vampires are pretty good at masquerading as humans...

Your link doesn't seem to work. Try this instead.

I've love to see a WoW-style "undead" that are basically human (e.g.: no fancy schamcy vulnerabilities) with cool undead-sytle abilities. That'd be totally sauce.
