Potential Canon Information

John W. Mangrum's Zombie Lore[16]

Monster Manual

Characters with ranks in Knowledge (Religion) can learn more about a creature’s zombified nature. They may need to make a separate Knowledge check to learn about the base creature. Characters who recognize a zombie’s nature can make a Knowledge (arcana) check to learn more. When a character makes a successful skill check, the following lore is revealed, including the information from lower DCs.

Knowledge (Religion)

DC 10: This shambling, rotting creature is a zombie, little more than a walking corpse. This result reveals all undead traits.

DC 15: Zombies are mindless undead that retain almost none of the knowledge or abilities they possessed in life. A zombie’s reflexes are all but destroyed by the rot slowly consuming its body. A zombie has such poor coordinatation that it cannot move and attack at the same time.

DC 20: A zombie doesn’t even feel most minor blows to its putrid flesh. The most effective means of destroying zombies is to simply dismember them with slashing weapons.

Knowledge (arcana)

DC 13: Zombies can be created with a basic animate dead spell. They are often found in the service of necromancers or other masters of the undead.
