I’d come back as a wraith, preferably shadow of mordor / war style with domination powers.
Otherwise, a lich assuming I could have lich magic and evolve
If you disregard supernatural powers of undead, it’s different depending on who you ask anyway, I’d go with a skeleton.
I’m pretty lazy, so… spectre. Having no body to haul around will make things easier.
Ghost. Flying, intangibility, spooky telekinesis … Sounds great.
Blue whale.
“oh no, not again”
If I’m an undead undead, do I get to live?
Depends on how your summoned I guess.
Skeleton:
- When the hero comes into the tomb, I want it to be dead first, no faffing about with boss fight (which they always win) BS.
- I like the musical nature of their bones.
- I already am one, sort of…
Tiamat
Is not undead?
Jesus, for sure. Not that he came back.
But that is what the Good News™ is all about for the evangelicals! He is already HERE! Parts of him are probably fossilized or petrified by now. And the rest of him is just dust. And dust never goes away. Why, I might even have a particle of Jesus dust in my yogurt right now! Halleluhah.
Hmmm,an undead deity, undead tarrasque, or, the pact to summon me would be the life of the summoner and he summons me as his undead self.
I like all of these options
Wraith, so that I can go through walls, carry a big-ass scythe, and upgrade from generating Fear to generating Terror, so I can exploit that juicy morale penalty even if the enemy unit is immune to Fear.
I’d go as more-or-less human ala the movie Warm Bodies. Just because I’m dead doesn’t mean I can’t have a nice romantic fling!

I’ll be that guy, and say abomination. The more twisted the better. Like a mouth in my belly, extra arm on my back kind of twisted. I’ll learn to enjoy striking terror in my victims’ hearts. Afterlife will be dope.
