Undead

Summary of Undead
The undead is thought by Naveth's population to be only unholy and foul creatures that only have the desire to kill the living. The undead varies from all across the world, about what environment they're spawned in. As many knows, those who were once living make the population of the undead.

Location
The Undead spawns all over the continent, but there are specific spots that contain huge amounts of the undead. These spots across Naveth are called the Plagued Lands. Adventurers could come to the Plagued Lands for loot from the corpses that died in the Plagued Lands, but in return take the risk of becoming undead if they die within the surrounding area. The Plagued Lands were once an area filled with immense amounts of mana before being corrupted with the bloodshed from countless wars on the land(s).

Origin
The most prominent ways to become undead are the following: Cursed, Died in the plagued areas, or have an immense regret when you die, forcing you to return to life as an undead. For those with regret to come back to the world of the living, they go through a process of Undeath. The process of Undeath is the resurrection of the decaying body in return for possibly losing their sentience as a living being. Those that survive the process gain the perks of the undead while also keeping their sentience as a human. This is why priests can cast resurrection to be able to fully utilize the miracle to bring someone back alive.
