Undead

Undead not controlled by the Necromancers

„*Are the undead out every night?"
"Not every night, not anymore....their presence has diminished greatly over the past few generations.*”
— Thalleous to Senn
The **Undead** are hostile creatures that are found in Ardonia, especially in the caves. They are considered very dangerous and are known to be lethal on their victims as shown in Episode 3 and Episode 4. They are usually seen to be controlled and manipulated by the Necromancers, though after the fall of the Necromancers in Season Two, they were controlled by the Withers. The way to control the Undead is by using the withers.

## Lore

Undead originated from the Nether, though it is possible that they could have infected the dead bodies of the fallen from past times, that would then mercilessly kill others in order to convert them into more Undead.

## Types and Variants

### Zombie

They are melee hostile mobs that are found in the caves and usually at night, they hate the light and seem to get damaged by daylight. Their skin is green in color and they usually wear a full set of clothing.

### Husk

They are a variant of Zombies that do not get damaged by daylight, like their counterparts they also don't carry a weapon and depend on melee for combat. Their skin is brownish grey in color.

### Stray

These Undead are subspecies of zombies. They are characterized with more grey-ish skin. They usually live in caves and hate sunlight. They are much more violent and savage then regular Undead. However it is also believed that there is a stray skeleton subspecies as well.

### Creepers

They are green creatures that explode willingly on sight to inflict damage upon their enemies at will.They don't attack at all and are basically a suicide bomb in the Undead category.

### Spiders

They are creatures that have the ability to climb walls and shoot webs at their enemies. They can also eat a person as mentioned by Xaria in Episode 7.

## Appearences

### Episode 1

Undead were attacking kingdoms of Ardonia as servants of Nether in the prologue.

We can later see some undead on tainted areas of Ardonia which on Thalleous and Hawken travels.

### Episode 2

These creatures are only mentioned by Lucan during his conversation with prison warden Marcus. They are said to be a threat that lurks below the surface.

### Episode 3

The Undead attacked Felden's Bazalt mines, commanded by the Unknown Necromancer, who threw the Wither Skull that commanded the Undead to attack Felden miners. The Undead conquered the Bazalt mines; and the only survivor was seemingly Lucan. Later Felden officials assigned Lucan as a investigator, which had order to report about his findings. The officials also mention rumors about the Necromancers who "control the Undead and use them as an army" as said by the Felina female official.

In the Ardoni arc Senn mentions the Undead in his conversation with Thalleous Sendaris.

### Episode 4

The Undead are attracted by a Necromancer to the campfire of Lucan. They showcase their deadly abilities by ruthlessly hunting down their prey, although Lucan and a Felina named Niika escaped during that encounter. Short after the events of that scene, some Undead attempted to follow them but failed, as Lucan and Niika hid in latter's Treehouse.

In the Ardoni arc Sulliman, mentions the Undead as a threat of the old days.

### Episode 5

The Undead appeared again with the same Necromancer again in the same place. Although this trap was much better organized, all zombies were annihilated and the Necromancer was knocked out by Niika.

### Episode 6

Lucan enters the Necrobase undercover, in an attempt to infiltrate the Necromancer Base and report back to the Felden officials. First, he has a close encounter with a swarm of Undead which is too large to control with a Skull, but he is rescued by Necromancer Xaria, who believes his disguise. He takes Lucan as a rookie. Then they enter the Necrobase's main complex where are pits filled with Undead, that suffer and train combat abilities there.

### Episode 7

Xaria, the Unknown Necromancer and Lucan arrives with the Undead and besiege Niika's treehouse. Xaria discovers Lucan's identity and a violent fight ensures. Shortly after, Niika joins the fight, killing one of the Necromancers and alongside Lucan they annihilate the rest of the terrifying creatures.

### Episode 10

The Undead are used as the Necromancers' army and they besiege the helpless Kingdom of Felden. The Necrolord uses his wither stuff to increase the violent powers of his mindless assets. Several cities of Felden are burned by the forces of the Undead.

## Trivia

* Thalleous states in the third episode that the presence of the Undead has decreased greatly over the past few generations, but the Felden Officials and Sulliman both later state that the Undead have been attacking in greater numbers, likely due to the work of the Necromancers.
* Thalleous says that Osivian would not approve of Ria and Senn's training to fight the undead. This may mean they might have already known of this threat already.
