Certain areas of the ocean may harbor powerful malevolent beings or dark magic that make them unholy; drowning in such an area is almost certain to result in one becoming a drowned dead. But whether a victim of drowning will become an undead or not is unpredictable; sometimes evil sailors drown and do not become one of the undead abominations, and other times blameless mariners die in normal, open water and come back as drowned dead.Grimmen: They have magical powers that aid them in deceit and battle, and they possess a unique ability to rise from the grave when slain.When the grimmen is slain, in 1d4 minutes it rises again with 44 hit points. Its type changes from fiend to undead. It loses its innate spellcasting and Master of Disguise abilities, its Intelligence becomes 6, and it ceases to attack with any attacks except its lifedraining bite, detailed below. Pouring a vial of holy water on the corpse of the grimmen will stop it from rising, as will entirely destroying the corpse by methods such as burning it.Ravenous Zombie: But the real danger is the contagion they spread, for those bitten by ravenous zombies slowly sicken and die... and then rise again to seek the flesh of the living.If the creature dies while infected with ravenous zombie contagion, it rises in 4 (1d8) hours as a ravenous zombie.Remnant, Memory Wraith: Remnants, or memory wraiths as they are also called, are formed when a creature dies but its traumatic memories won't let it rest.Saithith, The Lord of Gluttony, Vampire: Saithith was a foppish pirate lord who preyed on shipping lanes in the Lonely Sea during the time of King Dakor V of Daven. While a pirate, his appetite for both food and plunder was great. When he would capture a ship, he would throw a huge feast/orgy, and literally bathe himself in wine, food, women, and plunder for days on end. Often, this display was so outrageous that it would sicken even his pirate crew. Thus, when the Dweller in the Wintervale sent the vampire Kibor to find a good candidate to be the Lord of Gluttony, Saithith was nominated.Burned Dead, Shambling Corpse Charred Black as if From a Fire, Charred Corpse, Cursed Creature, Lethal Undead The Burns With a Touch: ?Drowned Dead, Horrid Undead Thing, Undead Abomination, Foul Creature, Abomination, Lethal Undead That Drowns With a Touch: ?Remnant, Shadowy Wraith-Like Figure, Shadowy Ghost, Greatly Feared Foe: ?Undead, Undead Creature: ?Jaef of Kale, Lich: ?Cultulak, Vampire: The Beast slays the evil Necromancer Cutalak, but fails to retrieve the Book of Seven, as the Cult spirits it away. As punishment for his sin of bringing the Book of Seven to Núrion, Cultulak rises again as the first vampire.Kyrren, Vampire: c. 6500 The vampire Kyrren is made. She was initially a beautiful, ebony skinned barbarian from the lands to the south of the Wintervale. She was created by an unknown vampire.Galen Stireck, Galen Stirek, Vampire: c. 7160 The vampire Galen Stirek is made in Zeland by Kyrren.Kibor, Vampire, Very Powerful Vampire: c. 7260 Galen Stireck creates the vampire known as Kibor.Undead Minion, Vampire: ?Vampire Spawn: A humanoid slain in this way [by Saithith's bite attack] and then buried in the ground rises the following night as a vampire spawn under Saithith's control.Kiborus the Cold Lord, Vampire, Vampiric Mayor, Unholy Father: ?Powerful Vampire: ?Normal Zombie: ?</blockquote>
