Kosheyt

Kosheyt are the most common kind of Undead found in the city of Styx.

Academics at the Academia Ars Magicka et Mundana still hotly debate if Kosheyt qualify as "true undead" or if they are to be considered half-undead or something else entirely.

Generally speaking kosheyt retain some of the qualities of their birth race, just without the things that make them alive.

Kosheyt rarely eat but when they do they are strict carnivores leading to some superstitions of them being cannibals.

Their bodies exist permanently in the state of decay that they had when they became undead, for some this means they're walking skeletons while others look like recently deceased corpses almost indistinguishable from living members of their race.
