On rare occasions, a zombie retains intelligence and memories from its former life. Known as zombie lords, these undead creatures do not have their lesser brethrens' sluggish movement, and are generally a much greater threat as well.¹² Some zombie lords are consummate undead who pursued their fates.³

Variants

Magus zombie

Magus zombies are zombie lords animated from minor spellcasters who also retain their spellcasting abilities. While similar to liches in this regard, they are far less powerful.⁴ Some magus zombies pursued conscious life after death but lacked the power or resources to become a lich.⁵ Unlike zombie lords, they are also not necessarily limited to evil alignments.⁶

Known magus zombies

Esme Verisi, a unique example of an alchemically animated, intelligent, non-evil zombie⁶
Leylani Marakhoum, a vain Gebbite aristocrat who failed to become a lich⁵
