Undead refers to creatures or NPCs that are affected by Fighters Guild abilities. This can include reanimated skeletons, spirits, vampires, mummies, and zombies. Zombies, skeletons and mummies occasionally leave Desecrated Ground behind when they die, which deals magic damage over time to those who stand in it.

For more information refer to the various pages below.

Undead NPCs

Type	Description and Abilities
Bog Blight	Bog Blight Bog Blights are undead Argonians whose grave stakes have been removed from the mud, unpinning their corpse from its final resting place and allowing it to walk free. They can be found in Murkmire.
Draugr	Draugr Soldier Draugr are Nordic undead most often found in the ancient tombs of Skyrim. Many Dragon Priests encountered in the game are also Draugr.
Mummy	The Silent Sword, a Redguard mummy Fenlord, an Ayleid mummy Mummies are an uncommon type of undead, appearing as a person covered in rotting bandages. They also have completely white eyes. They are often resurrected Redguards or Ayleids (although a few mummies of other races exist) and most often are found in the Alik'r Desert or Shadowfen.
Skeleton	Skeletal Archer Skeletons are a common type of undead found in dungeons and crypts throughout Tamriel.
Spirit	Spectral Striker Sir Granden Spirits are spectral versions of dead NPCs. They can be found throughout Tamriel. In-game, they may be referred to as "ghosts", "spirits", or "souls", but the term is used here to describe NPCs that appear as an apparition and are otherwise dead. For other types of spectral NPCs, see Spectral NPCs. Not to be confused with the Ghost creature type (see below).
Vampire	Vampire Illusionist Bloodfiend Vampires are NPCs afflicted with Vampirism. The disease causes them to physically change, giving them pale skin and glowing eyes. One commonly found type of Vampire is Bloodfiends. They are feral vampires, and certain ones can infect the player with Vampirism.
Zombie	Edhelruin, a zombie A Bloodthorn Zombie A Ra-Netu A Plague Husk Zombies are reanimated corpses found throughout Tamriel. There are a few different variations of them, including: Bloodthorn Zombies: zombies being raised by the Bloodthorn Cult in Betnikh and Glenumbra. These zombies have a distinct appearance because they have thorny vines growing out of their backs. Plague Husks: victims of the Llodos Plague that have transformed into zombies rather than just dying. They are found in the Redolent Loam area of Deshaan. Ra-Netu: a uniquely Redguard form of undead, raised by necromancers. They are commonly found in Alik'r Desert. The zombie's combat abilities are: Swipe: A basic melee attack that does minor physical damage. Vomit: The zombie vomits on a target doing moderate disease damage as indicated by a cone. Pound: The zombie lunges at a target doing moderate physical damage and staggering the target. Blocking will prevent the stagger and set the zombie off balance. Desecrated Ground: On death, the zombie releases noxious fluids around itself as indicated by a red circle. This does moderate damage over time and snares all targets within the red circle.
Other Types	Pharethil the Unbending Sihadid Anka-Ra were once a warrior band of the Ra Gada, who swore an oath of eternal loyalty to their leader, Emperor Tarish-Zi. When Tarish-Zi was pulled forward in time to aid The Warrior, the Anka-Ra were resurrected to continue fulfilling that oath. Appearance-wise, most Anka-Ra have stone skin, looking almost like moving statues. A few were resurrected as Skeletons and Liches, however. Notably, Emperor Tarish-Zi and Titus Valerius, having been pulled forward through time, are living and not undead.
	Hollow Guardian Hollow are stone constructs with an Altmer appearance that have been created/resurrected by the Wilderking. They are bound to protect different parts of Valenwood, on orders of the Wilderking.
	Nhalan, a Nedic undead NPC Nedic undead are undead versions of Nedes. They are identical in appearance to Draugr or Dragon Priests, but as those are Nordic types of undead, that term does not apply. There are only a few of these NPCs in the game, and they can only be found in Craglorn: Nhalan Rosathild Watcher Armok Watcher Garalan Watcher Shavmar
