Special Abilities

Clumsy Charge (Ex)

Beast Zombies are amazingly fleet of foot. They will use this speed to race into combat using a charge maneuver. When they use Clumsy Charge they are considered flat-footed, and use their flat-footed Armor Class until the start of their next turn. If they hit, their target is automatically knocked Prone. Unfortunately, the Beast Zombie also falls Prone in an adjacent square.

Thrashing Stand (Ex)

Beast Zombies are clumsy but powerful things. As a full attack action, the zombie beast can stand up from Prone, during which they thrash and flail mightily to gain their feet, throwing sharp hooves and claws and teeth in all directions. Any enemy creatures within 10 feet of their space are subject to the Thrashing Stand, a touch attack made at + to hit (includes penalty due to being prone). If it hits, it deals physical damage. The thrashing attacks occur before the beast stands from prone, and any creature successfully struck by the Thrashing Stand is denied any opportunity attack that would normally have been provoked by the beast standing up from prone.

Zombie Rot (Su)

Any time a creature is bitten by a beast zombie, they must make a Fort save, DC , or contract the Zombie Rot disease.

Zombie Rot (Injury vector; Diseased intensity)
Fort DC ; frequency: 1/day for 3 days
Effect: STR damage per interval; Fruition: death (permanent), and victim becomes a Zombie of the same CR as the creature slain.


There are no visible warning signs of the disease's fruition, other than the ongoing sickness, until the zombie begins trying to eat all his nearby friends.
Similarly, anyone killed by a beast zombie through damage will also rise as a zombie in 2d6 hours. If resurrection is cast on a zombie, it returns to life and is no longer a zombie.
Zombie Beast

Zombie Beast

What happens when a pack of zombies stumbles upon a herd of cows on a farm?

Yep. Zombie cows.
Beast zombies represent the undead remains of various animals that are left behind in a zombie outbreak. They are all size Large, and represent such animals as cows, horses, donkeys, mules, pigs, deer, moose, caribou, etc, etc that may be pulled down and converted to undeath.
Beast zombies tend to be less malevolent than humanoid zombies, but since they are larger, they are actually quite dangerous foes.

Combat Tactics

Beast zombies are mindless undead that have a compelling hatred of the living. Their tactics are simple: Charge in, fall down, stand up and attack until everything is dead.

Beast zombies do not need to eat, sleep or breathe.

Out of Combat

Immortal (Su)

Zombies cannot be killed through normal means. However, zombies may lie shattered and dormant after being defeated for months or even years before their bodies recompose and they once again rise to seek and consume the flesh of the living. Sanctify Corpse (Spell), Consecrate (Spell) or Gentle Repose (Spell) will add a year and a day to the time it takes for a zombie to re-compose. Resurrection (Spell) will bring the person associated with the zombie's corpse back to life, destroying the necromantic bond on its corpse.
