[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 8059560, member: 2209"] The Original Revised & Expanded Tegel Manor 0e [b]Banshee:[/b] ? [b]Cauldron Born:[/b] ? [b]Ghost:[/b] ? [b]Liche:[/b] The undead remains of a powerful spell-caster. [b]Mummy:[/b] [F]requently cursed to its undead existence as horrible revenge for deeds done during life. Mummy's Curse. [b]Skeleton:[/b] Often thought of as mere sword-fodder, skeletons have a tenacity born of the magics that animate them. Unless extreme (magical) measures are taken, Zombies continue to decay, gradually falling apart until either reduced to Skeletons or just disgusting muck. [b]Spectre:[/b] If a victim can be reduced to CON=0 [by a Spectre's attack] that one is doomed to become a Spectre as well. [b]Vampire:[/b] A victim slain in this fashion [by a Vampire's bite] may rise three nights afterwards as a Vampire unless dealt with in the traditional means which lay a vampire to rest: These include a wooden stake driven through the heart, decapitation, or complete cremation of the corpse. [b]Wight:[/b] Possessing more intelligence than a Zombie (which isn't saying much!), this may in fact be the undead form of a Ghoul. [b]Wraith:[/b] ? [b]Zombie:[/b] Needing no sustenance other than the magic that created and controls them. The fourth cup, covered with a rotting napkin, contains a dust similar to that which pours from the teapot, shimmering oddly. The zombie-sisters keep returning their dust to the pot. If a PC should sample the dust, it will impart an incredibly beautiful appearance for 1d10 hours—but then the character begins a hideous transformation into a Zombie in 1d10 turns! The effect can only be dispelled by a “Neutralize/Cure Poison” type of spell before the transformation is complete, or a “Remove Curse” spell once the change has taken effect. This is Dubreibem's Cauldron which turns those bathed within to become mindless zombies. [b]Reckless Rory, Skeleton:[/b] ? [b]Rialto the Riffraff, Zombie:[/b] ? [b]Rustrum the Rabid, Wraith:[/b] ?
