Members of the Z zombie monster class are undead creatures often found in graveyards or in the main dungeon. Zombies leave corpses that are already old, so they are unfit for sacrificing, and are likely to be tainted even if eaten immediately. You can tin a zombie's corpse to attempt to gain or lose whatever intrinsic would normally be added or lost by consuming a normal corpse of the same monster type.

List of zombies

Kobold zombie

Gnome zombie

Orc zombie

Dwarf zombie

Elf zombie

Elf zombies leave rotten elf corpses. These may be tinned and then eaten for the sleep resistance intrinsic, which they have a 67% chance of giving. The high chance comes from the fact that the base level of the elf monster is considerably higher than other base race monsters.

Human zombie

Ettin zombie

Giant zombie

Giant zombies leave rotten giant corpses. These may be tinned and then eaten for the strength gain.
