cost: 14 hitpoints: 30 |
name: Skeleton Archer race: undead |
A skeleton archer is little different from the 'skeletons' which often accompany it - it is a sin against nature, a warrior raised from the dead to fight once again. In their master's hands, these soldiers will do anything to achieve the tasks laid before them, for death holds no fear for one who is already dead.

name: Bone Shooter race: undead |
Of a dark sorcerer's creations, some take more strongly to the false life given them. Potency of life is given equipment to match; archers, in particular, are often outfitted with a truly vile arsenal. Their quivers are filled with shafts made not of wood, but of the bones of their victims. Dubbed simply 'Bone-Shooters' by their unfortunate enemies, these abominations are a terror to all who live.

name: Soul Shooter race: undead |
The most powerful of the undead archers invariably end up being those who were themselves archers in their previous life. They wander the fields of battle, guided by the fading memory of their former skill, neither knowing, nor caring what their purpose, or foes be. They are driven only by a malice borne of the anguish of their empty and incoherent existence.

Ghoul tree
- Ghoul

|
cost: 16 hitpoints: 33 |
name: Ghoul race: undead |
Only those who have delved into the circles of necromancy know what must be done to turn a person into a ghoul, and it is a secret they are not telling. Whatever unspeakable rites they have performed, the result is a beast that knows nothing of its days as a human being, a creature that shambles about as naked as the day it was born, and gorges itself on the flesh of the dead. It is because of such things that necromancy is condemned with an almost primal hatred.

cost: 27 hitpoints: 47 |
name: Necrophage race: undead |
Driven ravenous by an unholy hunger for dead flesh, Necrophages attack their hoped-for food with beast-like ferocity. When they are sated with the flesh of their victims, they simply shrug off all damage sustained as if they had been freshly summoned, to begin their search for flesh again.

cost: 41 hitpoints: 65 |
name: Ghast race: undead |
The ghast is a creature taken from hunadkind's most primal nightmares. Unlike their lesser cousins, ghouls and necrophages, ghasts are not patient enough to wait for their victim to die from poison before consuming the body. They attack directly with their enormous moths, trying to rip the flesh straight from their foes. Once their enemy is defeated, they eat the rest of the body, gaining strength in the process. Special Notes: This unit gains has 1 hitpoint added to its maximum whenever it kills a living unit. The victims of this unit's poison will continually take damage until they can be cured in town or by a unit which cures. |

|
cost: 20 hitpoints: 18 |
name: Ghost race: undead |
It is one of the greater mercies of creation that a human soul is immutable, and cannot be destroyed. However, the many things a necromancer can do in spite this are entirely horrifying. Trapped within a shroud of vile enchantments, a spirit likens unto the wind in the sails of a ship. The contrivance that results from this prison is an unfailing servant, which can be bound to whatever task their master sees fit.

- Wraith

|---|---|---|
|
cost: 38 hitpoints: 25 |
name: Wraith race: undead |
These tortured forms of what were once warriors are among the most terrifying things a necromancer can create, for a sword will cleave right through them, as through air itself. What inspires such fear is the thought that these beasts are invincible, a belief that is actually far from the truth. Because of this, a means was made by which the enchantments that drive these creatures could renew themselves through the very thing which threatened them.

cost: 52 hitpoints: 33 |
name: Spectre race: undead |
Sometimes called the 'hollow men', spectres form the right arm of their master's power. These abominations are a rightful terror to the living, and keep a sleepless vigil over their master's domain. The creation of these is no mean feat; the real danger in encountering one is that it is likely only the harbinger of a much more dangerous force that will follow in its wake.

- Shadow

|
cost: 38 hitpoints: 26 |
name: Shadow race: undead |
When light came into the world and gave form to the unknown, fear was forced to retreat into darkness. Since that day, the shadows of the world have held terror for humanity, though it knows not why. That is a question which is easily answered by a necromancer.

The purpose of the masks that these creatures wear is unknown, as is the countenance that they obscure. These terrible forms are rarely seen by the living, and those who live to speak of them had no leisure to study their foe.

|
cost: 15 hitpoints: 34 |
name: Skeleton race: undead |
Skeletons are warriors who have been slain in battle and brought back by dark magics. Nearly mindless, and unwavering in their purpose, they fear neither pain, nor death, and their mere presence will often frighten away any who would challenge their master.

|
cost: 28 hitpoints: 47 |
name: Revenant race: undead |
Given false life to do battle once more, the creatures known as Revenants were clearly great warriors in their time, though the memory of that time is now long gone. Even the sorcerers who raised them can only speculate on their past. Such questions aside, a Revenant is a powerful tool in combat: a fearless warrior that feels no pain, and which will fight to the bitter end.

cost: 50 hitpoints: 68 |
name: Draug race: undead |
Towering remains of what once were legendary warriors, the Draug strike fear in the hearts of all who oppose them. They are driven not by malice, but are forever bound within the dream of unlife, wandering through the greatest battles of their memory, and fighting desperately for release, for a peace bought only by strength of arms. The memory of their enemy, and the purpose of their struggle have long faded into oblivion.

|
cost: 28 hitpoints: 39 |
name: Deathblade race: undead |
In life, the abominations known as 'Deathblades' were masters of combat, soldiers who were both lithe and deadly. Their new masters will often recognize this, and try to take advantage of it by outfitting them to match the skills they once had. Though frail, these monsters are much faster than the rest of their kind, both on foot and with their blades.

Dark Adept tree

|
cost: 16 hitpoints: 28 |
name: Dark Adept race: human |
To attract any practitioners, the lure of black magic must be a great prize indeed, for anyone caught practicing the art in the civilized world is subject to a death sentence. And yet there are those who pursue this art, for the prize offered is nothing less than immortality. Hidden away in secret cults, or initiated into the dark orders of the underworld, the training which these fanatics must endure often drives them to exhaustion and enfeeblement. In such condition, their only weapon is the craft they have so committed themselves to learning.

- Dark Sorcerer
| Battle Stats | Unit Info | Other Info |

|
cost: 32 hitpoints: 48 |
name: Dark Sorcerer race: human |
The dread inspired by black magic comes chiefly from how little is known about it by the common man. Dark sorcerers have begun to unlock the secrets of life and death, quickly becoming masters of inflicting pain and anguish. The ultimate prize of the dark arts is complete domination of death and life. Dark Sorcerers may eventually learn how to manipulate life and death by reanimating corpses, skeletons, and spirits. The most corrupt and power-hungry will attempt to completely conquer death through the transformation to lichdom and attainment of a dreadful immortality.

cost: 50 hitpoints: 60 |
name: Lich race: undead |
A lich is the physical embodiment of black magic's first goal: the quest to achieve immortality. Though a great deal is sacrificed in the rebirth, in becoming a lich one cheats death of that which truly gives it terror. For it is the mind that is retained, and the spirit which follows, though the body may wither away. It is not known, save perhaps by the inner circles of necromancy, whether life is prolonged indefinitely or simply extended. But to even consider such a thing bears tribute to the magnitude of what they have already achieved.

name: Necromancer race: human |
One of the greatest circles of what is considered 'black magic' is the art of necromancy, the terrible ability to awaken the dead with false life. It was a discovery that had terrible ramifications and caused humanity's condemnation of black magic, for it has given fear a vast new arsenal. This ability, in all aspects, is the first step towards cheating death of its ultimate prize. It is the highest degree of power a dark mage can attain without losing grip on humanity itself, but pales to the lethal power wielded by Liches. Their mortal bodies are also made sturdier by their magic, in contrast to the frail decayed form of a Lich.
