Jag kunde inte hitta en officiell skelettras, men det finns ett sätt att officiellt spela en odöd.
I Tomb of Annihilation finns det ett avsnitt med regler för att en spelare ska höjas som en zombielike varelse.
A deceased character can be reanimated by Nanny Pu'pu in Mbala in Chult using the Rite of Stolen Life (p. 73).
Avsnittet anger:
A character transformed by this ritual into the walking dead regains all its hit points and retains its statistics, except as noted here:
- The character is considered an undead, not a humanoid, and is subject to all effects that target undead. The character doesn’t need to eat, drink, sleep, or breathe.
- The character’s hit point maximum is reduced by 1d4 at dawn each day, representing the physical decay of the body. No spell or effect can halt or counteract this decay.
- If the character’s hit point maximum drops to 0, the gemstone embedded in the character’s forehead shatters, and the character becomes a corpse once more.
A character that is turned into the walking dead and later raised or resurrected loses all memory of being an undead creature, but it doesn’t lose any levels or XP gained while it was undead.
