Cabalah

Cabalah are a type of sentient corporeal undead, most commonly found in the lands of Ixia. They are the animated corpses of dead, brought back to unlife through the influence of Right Handed Magic , deific intervention, corruption through the Shadow realm, or the influence of their environment. But, they retain the memories of their past lives and all of the skills they learned in life.

They appear as emaciated corposes, with their thin skin pulled taught across their bony extremities. Cabalah use weapons in combat, and are capable of speech.

Cabalah exhibit a great resistance to damage, and a greater strength than they had in life. They attacked using weapons and eschew the gnawing and biting of other undead. They commonly wear armor.
