Description:
The marsh zombies general structure is a little more complicated than the average walking corpse for they are in fact made of a multitude of corpses.
Dead marsh zombies (that is the marsh zombies that have been found 'redead' or have been killed fully) that have been examined have contained over 8 different humanoid remains combined to form one being. Animal remains have also been found present in their skeletal structure.
The general body mass of a marsh zombie is made up of an unknown ooze-like material (can be found in a variety of colours.)that acts as a binding material and the remains of various once living beings.
The marsh zombies have been seen to exibit signs of intelligence but they're far too hostile to investigate this fact further. What -is- known about them is that they have incredible tracking abilities and have been known to follow parties of people for miles despite attempts to discourage them.
History:
The history of these beings, and the way in which they came into existance is relatively unknown. Theories have been put forward about how the marsh may act as a sieve, allowing some forms of magic to disperse as usual, but holding others back. It is this magic that may allow these terrible creatures to 'live'.
Way of Life:
Again, the way of life is mostly unknown, though they do regularly follow any humanoid advancement into their territories. Recently marsh zombies have been seen to interact with one another when attacking trespassers. This is a cause for great concern as they were always thought to be solitary creatures. If the marsh zombies are able to communicate now, they may be able to expand their territory outside of the marsh and co-ordinate attacks on surrounding lands.
Faith:
Unknown.
Places of Importance:
(This should be used only as a brief decription of the areas that this race inhabit. The places are described in more depth in the Catagory named 'The Land'.)
Fallen Dragon Marsh
This is the only place where Marsh Zombies are found. However, there have been reportings from villagers of sightings near villages bordering the marsh. It is feared that the Marsh Zombies are becoming bolder in their explorations.
