Shadowland is one of the realms located in the Unending Sea and the Goddess directs her minions to collect the souls of the unfaithful and bring them to her thralldom. Here, their form is corrupted by the power of the Vorg. They are bound with negative energy and can then be sent back into Enshar to do the bidding of the Goddess. In this way, many of the Undead who have physical shape are created.There are other darker creatures that are born within the waters of the Unending Sea. These are the souls who never see the light and instead descend into the cold depths and enter the uncharted realms that border the Great Shadow. Because of this they remain as spirits and do not achieve the physicality of the Reborn. Some eventually find their way via unknown paths to Shadowland and serve Sirrith as her incorporeal servants. Others become lesser Demons in the Great Shadow. Finally, there are those who return to the living world without becoming the thralls of Sirrith. They exist as ghosts, wraiths and other creatures of an incorporeal nature.By 1800R, the Sirrith clergy in Odressi became bolder in its practices and encouraged the ritual of ‘purification’ amongst its acolytes. In this ceremony, zealots offered themselves up to be bled dry and to have their dead body reanimated with the power of the Shadow.Ghost: There are other darker creatures that are born within the waters of the Unending Sea.

The High Priest officiates and imbues the dead body with the energy of the Shadow, using the Skull of Vargranda (an ancient artefact said to have been given to the cult at the Dawn of Time, by Sirrith herself. Cultists resurrected this way become a Zombie Lord.Zombie: Slain by Dreadsteel.DREADSTEELStrong necromancy; CL 18th; weight 8lbThe leader of the group was attired in crimson-stained armor and, as I fought my attackers, I saw him strike his black sword against Hallen’s gorget; the evil blade giving off a hideous metallic scream as it bit into the metal. He had pierced Hallen’s armor and my comrade fell, blood gushing from the wound.I dealt quickly with my two opponents, driving my blade through the midriff of one and hamstringing the other. I turned, in time to defend myself from an attack launched by the crimson knight and managed to catch his terrible weapon on my own sword. As we tested our strength against each other, I saw Hallen, slowly recovering and standing up behind my foe. He was alive and planning to strike our enemy a mortal blow from behind!Suddenly the crimson knight mouthed the words, “Kill him!” and I saw the awful, vacant look upon Hallen’s face. He had risen as some creature of the Undead, controlled by my enemy and now intent on helping him dispatch me.This is a legendary blade, forged of Vurgonmir iron, once wielded by the Wraithlord Ikaradis during the Wars of the Serpent Kings. It is a +2 shortsword with the ability to animate the dead (as per the Level 3 CL spell). Any intelligent humanoid that dies as a result of a killing blow caused by Dreadsteel rises as a zombie, under the control of the wielder of the sword. The sword’s power allows the wielder to control a maximum number of zombies equal to their charisma score.Dreadsteel suffers the penalties common to all weapons made from Vurgonmir. Humanoids killed by Dreadsteel rise as zombies within 1d4 rounds. Apply the zombie template when creating them (Refer Pathfinder Bestiary Book One).</blockquote>
