Zombie
Zombies are reanimated creatures, and are part of the undead race. Their reanimation can be done magically, biologically, or electrically. Magical reanimation is most prevalent as rising corpses, subjected to the will of the reanimator. This is usually done through the power of a necromancer. Biological zombies are people that have been put in a state of mind akin to zombie behavior, with extreme cases including the decay of their bodies. Electrically produced zombies are created monstrosities, usually from the mind of a mad scientist. Using electrical pulses to mimic blood flow, the decaying internal organs can work anew.
