Apocalypse Zombies
You can’t very well have a zombie apocalypse with the standard zombies found in the 5e Monster Manual. OR, really, any version of the zombies that I’ve seen in previous editions of D&D. The main thing that is missing from game zombies that is found in numerous movie and comic sources is: the ability to infect victims with a disease that turns people into zombies. I mean, seems simple, but… how did that get missed.
Here was the solution that we came up with at Double0Games for a proper zombie of the apocalypse.
Note that we made our zombies of the “fast” variety.
The Apocalypse Zombie and the other myriad of creatures I’ve been sharing this week are all found in Halloween Threats (5E) by Double0Games, available at DriveThruRPG.com.
