Semi-Undeath

A unique form of necromancy adopted by Rayth Mallus, Semi-Undeath is a state between living and undeath. Usually an undead creature looses its sentience and becomes feral, a creature that is Semi-undead retains its mind and personality but becomes a hollow version of their former self. It is necromancy that gives a being more life, and resurrection that leaves a being closer to undeath. It is a cruel fate to have but is sometimes necessary to preserve the lives of the fallen.

Causes
