The living dead shuffle forward slowly to the attack. Clumsy, but with near-superhuman strength (STR 16), they can be dangerous in numbers, or to those without the right weapons. Zombies never Parry or Dodge.

These ugly brutes stand the height of a man, but are far broader and stronger (STR 18). They are known to crave the flesh of Kin, especially Elves, Halflings, and Humans.

I have some old Chronicle ogre minis and I always felt they were scarier than giant-size ogres, especially when you're cooking over their camp fire. I licence the above two stat blocks free for commercial and other use. If using commecially please put "by Smon" in the credits for good karma.
