Stunts

Death Discipline. You have mastered control over death and the dead. You can shoot blasts of green necrotic energy, weaken your enemies, and animate the dead—although this doesn't quite make them “living” again.

Life Drain. When you deal stress to a target, you may choose to suck out some of it's life force, making that stress box stay filled for the rest of the session (like a mild consequence). You may only do this once per target and after you have done it to a target, each subsequent use requires you to spend a Fate Point or free invoke.

Reanimator. When you animate something, your animation now starts with one skill at Average (+1) and a 1-point stress box. You can also exchange any free invokes received for both a skill at Average (+1) and a 1- point stress box for your animated being. If an animated being has multiple skills at Average (+1), they can be combined to increase their power, as can stress boxes. So, if you exchange two free invokes, you can receive one Skill at Fair (+2) or two skills at Average (+1), along with one 2-point stress box or two 1- point stress boxes.

About

If you haven't ever seen a zombie movie, they are best used in groups or occasionally when a PC is unable to fight back (i.e. - tied up, without weapons, etc.).

Aspects

  • Shambling mindless corpse
  • Hungry!!!

Skills

Average (+1): Shamble(Athletics), Infect(Fight), Overwhelm(Provoke)

Stunts

  • Infection. When a target is dealt a consequence by a zombie, that consequence will worsen and move to the next available cosequence slot one session later if not treated. If there are no higher consequence slots, the infection will also fill a lower available consequence slot. If there are no available consequence slots, the character is taken out and must be treated immediatel or turn into a zombie.

Stress & Consequences

None (Taken out by one or more shifts)
