His current work on a true ritual intends to transform the entire population of a town or village into undead.Yvestil's Create Undead power.Undead Albadian Shaman: Andelais surmised that the shaman was a poor soul who had died aiding the Amaltheans but been brought back to a state of unlife by the druids of Khet.Greater Undead: Credas can create greater undead up to CR 10.Sentient Undead: ?Undead Minion: ?Undead Slave: ?Free-Willed Undead: Daine’s research grew darker and more complex. He sought to understand the connection between free-willed undead, such as wraiths and spectres, and the souls of the departed. Were these creatures the entire soul of a dead being? Were they only a portion of that soul, an amalgam of many souls or entirely separate and distinct entities?Insubstantial Undead Creature: ?Necazzar, Undead Sentry Crow Familiar: ?Galdor the Deathless, Leader of Lede, Undead Human, Terrifying Undead Warrior, Undead Monster, Unliving Thing: Galdor was already a fearsome warrior when the dark god Vangal took notice of him many years ago. Pleased with the young warrior, the Ravager bade his minions seek out Galdor and invite him to serve as their dark lord’s champion. Galdor enthusiastically accepted the offer and, infused with the power of his god, fought his way to a position of leadership within the notoriously fierce Horsemen of Vangal. Over time, he carved out an empire across the Plains of Lede, and his name struck fear into even the most powerful rulers’ hearts.In time, adversaries appeared to challenge Galdor’s supremacy, such as paladins of Corean, seeking to destroy the evil warlord, and traitors from Galdor’s own ranks. For years, these challengers failed; their severed heads decorated the banner poles and saddles of Galdor’s horde. Ultimately, though, an adversary prevailed: one of Galdor’s most trusted lieutenants made secret pacts with agents of Vesh and led a faction of Galdor’s forces in rebellion. Taken by surprise, Galdor was cornered and defeated at the battle of Horsehead Canyon. Galdor slew nearly 100 foes, including his treacherous lieutenant, before he was finally brought down. Their lord slain, the horde disintegrated, its members fleeing headlong into the plains.And that would have been the end of the matter, had Vangal himself not intervened.No one quite knows why Vangal brought Galdor back. The Ravager usually forgets his slain champions, nurturing riew followers rather than resurrecting old ones. But not Galdor. Within a few years of the warlord’s fall, travelers began reporting the appearance of a terrifying, undead warrior riding the plains, gathering recruits and once more uniting the clans into a single horde. Investigating these reports, Mithril’s paladins discovered the awful truth: the new warlord was none other than Galdor himself, animate but unliving, Vangal’s twisted and evil tool.His vanity and pride are limitless, even though he is an unliving thing, created and kept on Ghelspad by the will of Vangal alone, and any insult or slight is ruthlessly punished.Jerhard Landeraux, False Lover Unhallowed, Deeply Bitter Unhappy Creature: Landereaux committed many crimes in his twilight years, both large and small, but his worst offense was committed against the servants of the gods he claimed to glorify. In the city of Shelzar, where the good-aligned gods struggled against the jaded, pleasure-besotted populace, Madriel maintained a temple that cared for the sick, the poor and the underprivileged, hoping to lead by example and inspire the Shelzarites to greater acts of charity. Landereaux agreed to perform at the temple, more out of his lust for High Priestess Iona than for any other reason. After the performance, Landereaux confronted Iona, demanding two-thirds of the gold that the wealthy of Shelzar had donated to the temple to see him. When she refused, Landereaux forced his attentions upon her and absconded with all the gold.The now-infamous bard died soon after, slain by bandits for his ill-gotten gold. But his miserable existence was not over: he rose again, assuming an undead form that parodied his old self and becoming one of the Unhallowed.He has begun to realize that the reward for his crimes against the gods is an eternity of betrayal and falsehood, and he grows increasingly desperate as a result.Enslaved Undead: ?Undead Titanspawn: ?Aliastra Denier, Ghost: Bards and storytellers relate tales of Denier and her adventures, suggesting that she, far from real, is but a ghost or myth.Spirit of a Bird, Spirit of a Departed Bird: ?Spirit of an Animal, Spirit of a Departed Animal: ?Ghost: ?Credas, Lich: Credas may create a phylactery and become a lich if he so chooses. However, he has not chosen to do so and likely never will.Mistress Yvestil, Crypt-Lady of Glivid-Autel, Lich: ?Mummy, Elite Undead Bodyguard: ?Powerful Mummy, Honor Guard: ?Hostile Shadow: ?Skeleton, Elite Undead Bodyguard: ?Masterwork Skeleton: ?Ragni, Undead Skeletal Servant, Faithful Undead Servant, Skeletal Undead Companion, Undead Bodyguard, Skeleton, Unfortunate Creature: Some wags claim that the bones of Traviak’s brother Ragni comprise this undead so that the duke can dominate his hated older sibling even after death.Skeleton: Yvesti's Raise the Dead power.Spectre: Daine’s research grew darker and more complex.
