Leaden zombies resemble normal zombies, except their skin has the dull gray color of tarnished lead. They are similar to the normal undead zombie, but are animated by means of a special cursed item, not by the power of a cleric or magic-user. They will not obey commands unless a roll on the MATRIX FOR CLERICS AFFECTING UNDEAD, indicates that an evil cleric has affected them successfully. Treat them as wights for the purpose of turning.

Leaden zombies are slow like normal zombies, always attacking last. They have the same resistance to sleep, charm, hold and cold-based spells. Holy water vials do 2-8 hit points of damage with a strike.
