Shortly after an accident of unknown origins opens a gate to the Inner Planes, and obsidian flows across the land for hundreds of miles in each direction until the gate is closed by the Seventh Tree. Thousands die in the disaster. Those killed by obsidian rise as undead through a mysterious power from the Inner Planes.When some survivors of the massacres of the southlands amassed a large force of meorties and others and attacked the research facility, one of the researchers miscast a gate spell and opened a portal to the paraelemental plane of magma. This portal caused magma to spew out, stretching out for miles and miles, until it covered the land in a thick layer of obsidian. These planes eventually became known as the Deadlands, as everything living on the vast expanse of obsidian woke to find itself undead and in a strange and terrible new world.Undead Wizard: ?Undead Mindbender: ?Incorporeal Undead: ?Mindless Animated Undead: ?Creature That is Especially Vulnerable to Sunlight: ?Corporeal Undead: ?Undead Body: ?Undead Horror: ?Undead War Beetle, Undead War Machine: ?Liumakh, Undead Psion Telepath 10/Thrallherd 7: ?Thinking Undead Wizard: Year of Ralʹs Fury (Free Year –2,257)Infuriated at her lack of progress, Rajaat turns research of the Inner Planes over to Qwithʹs subordinates.

The evil sorcerer fashioned the Dark Lens as a focus for his power, amplifying his magic and psionic energies to unheard of levels. By using the Dark Lens Rajaat created other powerful artifacts—such as Silencer, Scorcher, and Scourge. Rajaat used the Dark Lens to give his 15 Champions their incredible powers.As the Cleansing Wars were ending and the champions discovered the true nature of their master’s schemes, the disciples of Rajaat took the Dark Lens and used its power to imprison their master in a place called the Hollow. Shortly after Rajaat was entombed, the Dark Lens was stolen by two dwarves named Jo’orsh and Sa’ram.These dwarves were self–proclaimed protectors of Athas, taking the Dark Lens from the Pristine Tower to the Estuary of the Forked Tongue and secluding it on the isle of Mytilene. There they created a safeguard for the Dark Lens in the form of a crystal pit, which proved deadly to any who attempted to retrieve the artifact. Years later Jo’orsh and Sa’ram perished while defending the Dark Lens from evil giants. Soon after, they arose as banshee, and used their new powers to guard the Dark Lens from the eyes of the Dragon and the rest of Rajaat’s champions.Sa'ram, Dwarven Banshee: The Dark Lens is an ancient artifact thought to have been created by Rajaat as the Time of Magic was coming to an end.

Located southeast of Balic across the Estuary of the Forked Tongue, the village rests inside a small narrow canyon. The village is mainly a collection of huts built against both sides of the canyon walls. Because of the lack of space inside the canyon only one narrow road exists in the cramped village. The villagers manufactured leather goods for House Rees, however their isolated position, without a source of water, left them utterly depende[nt] on Rees['] caravans. In the chaotic aftermath of the trade lords’ seizure of power in Balic the village was forgotten and all of the villagers perished. The next time a caravan from House Rees arrives at the village the entire population will rise as faels.Kaisharga: ?Dregoth the Ravager, Kaisharga, Undead Dragon King, Undead Sorcerer-King: Year of Friendʹs Fury (Free Year –1,970)Lead by Abalach–Re of Raam, the sorcerer‐kings storm Giustenal and kill Dregoth, Ravager of Giants just before he is to become a 30th–level Dragon. The battle destroys the city, the land, and most of its population. Afterwards, Hamanu throws the Scorcher into the Silt Sea. With the aid of his high templar Mon Adderath, Dregoth is returned to life as an undead dragon king.Meorty: ?Raiig: ?T'liz, Nevarli: ?Thinking Zombie: Unliving Identity spell.Thinking Skeleton: Unliving Identity spell.Thinking Exoskeleton: Unliving Identity spell.Dust Wight: ?Salt Mummy: ?Defacer: ?Plague Walker: ?Sanguineous Drinker: ?Skull Lord: ?Ashen Husk: ?Dry Lich: ?Forlorn Husk: ?Shadow: ?Undead Skeleton: Animate Dead spell.Vile Wraith: ?Zombie, Undead Zombie, Mindless Zombie: Animate Dead spell.Gray Zombie, Summoned Zombie, Powerful Zombie: ?Unliving IdentityNecromancy [Evil]Level: Clr 7, Dead Heart 5, Wiz 7Components: V, S, M, XPCasting Time: 1 roundRange: TouchTarget: One zombieDuration: InstantaneousSaving Throw: See textSpell Resistance: See textIn a macabre ritual, you sacrifice some of your essence to imbue a mindless zombie with a sentience of its own. You restore its memory and skills it once knew in life.You recall a mindless zombie’s consciousness from the Gray, transforming it into a thinking zombie (TotDL 78). This spell restores personality, memory, identity, skills, class levels—everything but life. The creature remains undead, and if you previously controlled the zombie, you may elect to retain control of it, but its Hit Dice count against the total you can control with animate dead; if you exceed that number, excess undead from previous castings become uncontrolled.Many creatures prefer not to return from the Gray to inhabit an undead body. If the creature is unwilling to return, it can make a Will save using its save bonus from life (not that of the target zombie). The spirit’s spell resistance, if any, also applies. Some clerics and all druids transformed into thinking zombies become ex–members of their class. The “good vs. evil” component of the thinking zombie’s alignment becomes evil, but creatures who were nonevil in life usually gain the death wish weakness (TotDL 18).Material Component: An item significant to the zombie’s former life, such as an article of clothing, a favorite piece of equipment, etc.XP Cost: 20 XP per HD of the thinking zombie to be created.</blockquote>
