Knowledge of the Karrnathi was brought to the Demiplane of Dread with Clavius Kreel, a Karrnathi necrologist and researcher. Some time prior to the Requiem, Kreel presented a wagon of Karrnathi zombies, along with other unusual undead, to Azalin Rex in Darkon. It was noted that he had augmented a number of them, seemingly with a number of salient abilities. A "research facility" on these undead is said to have been established near Karg, as Azalin has expressed his approval of Kreel's discoveries in future war efforts against Falkovnia.^[2]

It has been suggested that the Karrnathi zombie qualifies as an Obedient Dead according the Walking Dead typology in Van Richten's Guide to the Walking Dead . Likely salient abilities include Burning Touch, Corrosive Touch, Fearsome Speed, Spider Climb, and Verminous Host.^[3]
