Boneshard Bomb* (Su)
This discovery is popular among necromancers and necrologists alike; aside from its offensive potential, they sometimes use it to turn uncooperative live creatures they wish to question into pliable
Undead.

Prerequisites
Alchemical Zombie discovery
Benefit
The
Alchemist’s bomb deals piercing damage instead of fire damage, and creatures that take a direct hit from a boneshard bomb must succeed at a
Fortitude Save or take 1d4 points of bleed damage in addition to normal damage. If a creature is killed by a boneshard bomb or the resulting bleed effect, their corpse immediately reanimates as an
Undead creature with the skeleton template. Skeletons that are created in this manner count as
Undead created by
Animate Dead for the purposes of determining how many
Undead the
Alchemist can control.
