[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 8088055, member: 2209"] [URL=https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/260378/Solar-Blades--Cosmic-Spells?affiliate_id=17596]Solar Blades & Cosmic Spells[/URL] Black Hack [b]Undead:[/b] Undead creatures are created from living beings that, for some reason, stop the natural process of death and remain in a stage of undeath. Creatures that were supposed to be dead but have been infused with Void energy and now continue to walk and fly throughout the universe. Most of the undead are the creation of the Undead Queen of the Dead Zone or her disciples, who have been spreading undeath amongst the stars. The Undead Queen is actually the First Sorcerer who returned from the dead after she was betrayed by the Galactic Overlords and is just biding her time before she completely wipes them from the universe, spreading death, and undeath, to all. Over the last centuries she has spread a terrible plague among a great number of systems, now collectively known as the Dead Zone. This disease kills sentients of any species and some say it even affects Void creatures, turning them immediately into undead servants of the sorceress. Who was resurrected by a sinister cult. Created by the Undead Queen to spread a powerful plague. Who turns those killed by it into other undead. Creatures killed by the Specter return as other Undead. Animate Dead power.
