Zombie

From the OblivioWiki – your guide to everything Oblivion

Zombies are undead bodies resurrected by an unnatural spirit. They are found in dark underground places, such as sewers and caves, and can also be found in graveyards. When "killed," a zombie corpse may yield up Mort Flesh, which can be used as an Alchemy ingredient.

In appearance, Zombies are simply naked and rotting bodies displaying serious wounds which probably caused their death in life. All Zombies have mottled, dank green flesh with bones poking through, purple tongues, and commonly miss an arm and also, in the case of Headless Zombies, their head. They are very violent and can be surprisingly quick when they want to. Zombies frequently make disturbing groans and grunts when they detect prey.

The Dread Zombie is infamous among players for their ability to quickly regain health, powerful attacks and defence, and also tendency to show up to adventurous lower levelled players, meaning that they can be extremely difficult to kill. Dread Zombies have been known to kill guards and other powerful entities with ease, earning it a place as one of the hardest enemies to kill amongst the playerbase.

It is identical to the normal zombies in terms of stats and strength. The only differing aspect is its name.

[edit] Notes

• Zombies have been known to carry diseases, such as Astral Vapors, but any Altar of the Nine across Cyrodiil can cure them.
• Can be summoned as a minion/ally using the apprentice-level Conjuration spell, Summon Zombie and the journeyman-level Conjuration spell, Summon Headless Zombie
• Deranged Zombie Bonemeal is considered different to bonemeal from other places but has the same effects, so you can get an easy four-effect potion if you are either an expert or master in alchemy.
