A zombie is a dead person that is brought back to life through a curse (voodoo, necromancy) or a mutation and has recovered some vital functions like movements.

They are near-mindless, possessing little reasoning power, though many can perform 'remembered behaviours' from their mortal existence.

Some zombies have the appearance of the living but their lack of free will and souls give them the appearance of mechanical robots.
Other display visible signs of desiccation, decay and emaciation on their face and body.  They have blank, expressionless faces that become more animated when they are hungry and engage in a feeding frenzy.  Their choice of food being the brains of the living.

They are incapable of speech, but often tend to make moaning and guttural sounds.  They are normally encountered wearing whatever clothing they wore in their human life, prior to reanimation.
