Deadspawn
The Deadspawn are long-dead servants of Phath-Ral, a name that never comes up in the actual game itself. For some reason, the ancient mage Sekhotep has been disturbed from his long slumber and has not only stirred the rest of the Undead, but has cursed the city of Muq'Abar with a horrible plague. Whenever Alleron is in an Undead form, poison (which usually comes in the form of a bright green gas) has no effect on him. This is a considerably useful form.
The grunt form is a simple, brittle-looking zombie who wears a tall hat and wields a sword.
The shaman is a floating faceless being wearing a turban. He has a unique war cry. If Alleron upgrades to the undead shaman, he obtains the Absorption spell, which is arguably the most useful spell in the game. It steals health from a target (in the form of a glowing fireball) and grants it to Alleron when he comes in contact with said fireball. When venturing through the Undead world, it is wise to target the shamans before any other enemies. Although this form floats, Alleron cannot fly while in any form; he can only jump.
The mage is a floating half-skeleton wearing a cloak, and can also be heard very clearly from a distance. If Alleron chooses the Undead mage form, he obtains the Raise Dead spell, which brings any dead creature (but does not work on Automata) back to life (supposedly one time only.) This raised creature will follow and fight to the death for Alleron. Alleron can raise any number of creatures at a time (although this seems not to work so well while actually in Undead form,) but more creatures makes it harder to run around. There is a glitch with this spell where if Alleron raises a creature from the dead, then loads a new level and returns to the level where he raised the creature, that creature will respawn as an enemy and Alleron might have to fight it again. If said enemy dropped an item the first time it was killed, it will drop the same item subsequent times as well.
The warlord form looks similar to the grunt form, but he wears a cloak and a dog that represents an Egyptian dog. He also wields two swords. With this form comes the invisibility spell, which makes invisibility potions null.
