''"I need brainz Need brain but you're too dumb.stoopid!"''
Zombies are lumbering reanimated [[corpse]]s who are very prevalent throughout the dungeons and can be encountered as early as in the [[Underwater Tunnels]]. They are extremely tenacious and will continue to attack until slain (again), even when dismembered. Furthermore, they can reattach any lost limb, including their head, and will happily continue their unlife until either their torso or groin are destroyed. Any humanoid body part lying on the ground is eligible for a zombie to use as a substitute for its own lost limb, leading to such monstrosities as kobold zombie with an [[orc]]ish arm and the head of a [[Mistress]]. However, they cannot make any use of [[Cheats and Exploits#Artificial Limbs|inorganic limbs]].
Zombies may sometimes equip [[weapon]]s or [[armor]] they find around the dungeon, slightly increasing their potency.
Beware that zombie flesh is [[Leprosy|dangerously rotten]] and you should never consume it. The [[Disease]]s they carry are one of the biggest threats associated, as they can rarely transmit it by biting you. A nasty way to cripple the defenses of [[Attnam]] is to lead a group of infected zombies into the town and set them loose; just be sure to heal yourself afterwards. Zombies are a kind of [[derived undead]] - that means their [[attribute]]s are not given, they rather inherit them from the [[Monsters|monster]] they were in life. Thus, [[kobold]] zombies are nearly harmless while [[orc]] officer zombie will tear weaker characters to shreds.
== Making Friends with the Dead ==
There is another roundabout way of necromancy - [[Pets|tame]] a proper necromancer. Zombies raised by friendly necromancers will automatically be friendly to you. But beware! While having a horde of undead warriors on your side can be useful in some circumstances, it can also be a royal pain. A newly-raised zombie does not know most orders and cannot be given any if it lacks a head. So unless you go around playing Drill Sergeant to every single friendly zombie, they'll wear and wield whatever they come across, follow you in crowds and generally make nuisances of themselves.
== Stats ==
Statistics are given for the standard zombies ("Zombie") rather than derived zombies. Zombies created as a result of necromancy will have wildly varying stats.<br>
Zombies are also spawned with a variety of missing limbs and their body parts will slowly rot away. Therefore the following stats only apply to a zombie with all available limbs.
