Race name: Undead
Attributes: The undead are, well, dead. They are decayed, may smell of grave dust, and have lost most sense of touch. It is unclear how one becomes an undead--some say it is because the person's soul returned to the body due to unfinished business. The undead don't even know, for they can only remember snipets and peaks of their former life.
Most Undead are prone to delve in occult magic, due to their being closer to the dark powers by default. They also hate being called zombies, who are the Undead's unintelligent, useless counterparts. Zombies are a mysterious lot--they are stupid, shambling things who can't even utter a word, and their origins are unknown, just like the Undead.
History:
The Undead have been around for as long as people can remember. They were the first dark creatures that stepped out into the open, and the first creatures that the Brotherhood of the Spade had to fight. They were also the first to join the Brotherhood of the Spade, some as warlocks and witches, others as warriors.
They rejoined the AOA when the group was put back together.
Around the time when Hitler came into power, mindless, shambling versions of the Undead began to appear. They attacked anyone who moved, turning their victim into a zombie like them. After some years, the AOA rounded up all the zombies and stored them below their residence for testing.
Strengths: The Undead have a heightened sense of smell and hearing. They are also resilient to most attacks, most notably mind-altering attacks. They live forever until killed by unnatural causes. Are quite good black and white magic.
Weaknesses: Can be killed immediately by a gunshot to the head, don't have very good eyesight, have only a dull sense of touch.
