The meteor was a black, hellish thing, turgid with necrotic energy. The survivors witness in horror as the fragments and dust of the meteor wake the dead.The spirits released during the Cataclysm were scared, confused, and barely sentient. An outpouring of pain and suffering, they lashed out at anything that came close and—being little more than necromantic energy—animated the dead with abandon.The combination of planar trauma and negative energy prevented the flow of positive energy for a time, almost wholly removing the effects of healing power. Innumerable people perished from wounds that, in a mere short time before, could have been magically healed away. Those who tried to channel such powers became fonts of uncontrolled negative energy that killed them and all those nearby.The living perished by the tens of millions, and in the dark storm of negative energy arose the same numbers. Even uncontrolled minor undead hold an inborn hatred of the living, and the powerful undead now found almost nothing to resist their strength. Bodies erupted out of graveyards shorn of their blessed protections, and those slain by the Cataclysm twitched and rose to their feet, turning to prey upon the living.The new Obsidian Veil bars all divine traffic of souls and prayer, preventing any deity from seeing or hearing a thing, and cutting them off from gaining power from their followers. The souls of the departed do not pass the Obsidian Veil into other worlds; they either dissipate into the ravaged world-aura of the planet or become infused with negative energy and return as the motivating forces for yet more undead.Asi Magnor, Mummy, Undead Emperor: ?Directionless Undead: ?Undead Lord: ?Calix Sabinus, Vampire: ?More Canny Undead: ?Calix Sabinus, Vampiric Lich, Uncontested Ruler: In a passionate frenzy he studies lost and forbidden arts, finally transcending his vampiric form to become a lich.Lesser Undead: ?Undead Lord, Vassal Lord: ?Undead Lord, Vassal Lord, Cruel Tyrant: ?Petty Undead Lord: ?Undead Aristocrat: ?Undead Overseer: ?Kalbna, Ghost Lord: ?Angry Ghost: ?Ghost: Those who die today hold hatred for the lords in their minds and cries of freedom on their lips. The ghosts of today are the spirits of vengeance, no allies to the undead lords or to Calix Sabinus.
