Eventually the victim will succumb to the toxic effects of the powder and rise as an undead zombie, forever under control of the necromancer.Zombie PowderFacious creates this powder from the minced liver of the black-nosed fox, the eyes of a bloated toad, flesh of the rainbow puffer fish, various unsavory plants, and the brains of a recently buried child. The powder must be inhaled by the victim in order to corrupt their mind and rob them of their sense of self. When inhaled the victim must make a Fortitude save: 1 or less HD = no save allowed; 2-4 HD = DC 16; 5+ HD = DC 12. A successful save means the target takes 1d6 damage and suffers from a fit of violent coughs for 2d3 rounds (they cannot take any other action those rounds). Failure means that the victim falls unconscious and is in the grips of a terrible fever. The next day the target loses 1d3 points of Intelligence and will obediently serve the person who used the powder on them. The living zombie can only understand explicit and simple instructions however, such as “guard this door”, “dig a ditch”, “kill your family”, etc. When not ordered to do an activity they stare blankly, drooling slightly. Each day the target must make a successful Willpower save (DC determined by HD as listed above), failure means that the target loses an additional 1d3 points of Intelligence and comes closer to true undeath. If the target reaches zero Intelligence they fall dead from the fever and rise in 1d4 days as a zombie, utterly faithful to the person who poisoned him. If the target makes a successful save they shake off the effects and return to normal and will regain lost Intelligence at a rate of 1 point per full day of bed rest. However they are more susceptible to the powers of Zombie Powder and roll all further saves against it one step lower on the die ladder.Brew Potion (DCC, pg 223) DC 27 to create this potion.</blockquote>
