Animated by a particularly hateful brand of necromancy, juju
zombies are malicious, murderous creatures enslaved by the
mighty spells that created them. Armed with powerful abilities,
juju zombies are far superior to the mindless, shambling corpses
that most adventurers think of when they hear the word “zombie.”
MONSTERS OF THE EAST
66
A juju zombie appears to be an ordinary zombie at first
glance, although it is generally in better condition than most
of the walking dead. Its flesh has a grayish cast, and its skin
is leathery and hard. A hateful light burns in its sunken eyes—
the juju zombie comprehends its condition and loathes the foul
magic that sustains it. A juju zombie free to do as it wishes is
a bloodthirsty thing, driven to destroy the living and bring
woe wherever it wanders.
A juju zombie can be created with a create undead spell cast
by a 16th-level spellcaster or by certain powerful magical
curses or diseases, such as the blightspawned’s blight touch (see
the Blightspawned entry above).
Juju zombies understand all languages they knew in life, but
they are incapable of speech.
Combat
Juju zombie
The sample juju zombie uses a bugbear as the base creature.
Juju zombies fight with whatever arms they are given and
their own tremendous strength.
Undead Traits: A juju zombie is immune to mind-affecting
effects, poison, sleep, paralysis, stunning, disease, death effects,
necromantic effects (unless they specifically affect undead),
and any effect that requires a Fortitude save unless it also
works on objects. It is not subject to critical hits, subdual
damage, ability damage, ability drain, or death from massive
