| - Undead are horrible creations usually brought about by mortal arcane magic. Denied the peace and rest promised them after shedding their mortal coil, they are plagued remains, either physical or spectral, bound to the Prime Material through wrath, regret or ambition. Summary::Unlike ordinary undead, however, deathless are undead that are animated by divine decree and, therefore, considerably more potent. Deathless can be the product of a deity's personal intervention or magics, or they can be created at the behest of the most powerful of mortals through supreme feats and rituals of divine magics. Occasionally, deathless are created spontaneously over time in places where gods had touched the plane at earlier times and where their residual auras are strong. Deathless, whether or not they are mindless, are the purest sense of morbid personification. The singular purpose for which they are sustained even after natural death empowers their forms, making them stronger and tougher. Deathless are especially difficult to turn.
