Ok, so given the following paragraph:

They gain a bite attack that deals damage based on the zombie’s size, and the grab special attack, usable against opponents of the zombie’s own size or smaller. When an opponent dies, the zombie uses its next turn to feast upon its victim’s brain, making spells that require a complete corpse (such as raise dead) useless. Anyone killed after being bitten by a brain-eating zombie rises as a brain-eating zombie in 2d6 hours unless the corpse is blessed or similar preventative measures are taken.

The way I read this A) the "usable against a creature its size" refers to the grapple not the bite

B)Would by technicality, allow the zombie to raise an undead mount by biting and killing it.

I ask as a character in one of my games is running as a brain eater zombie anti paladin, now I see no immediate harm in him doing this, but am I right? is there some Cuthulu like issue just waiting in the bushel to grab and fish-personize me?

I like GMing.

And when I GM I like to let people go wild creatively with new toys (for my group) like running monstrous races only campaigns and the like. My current in the workshop campaign, is "lets be undead" and it sounded like a good idea, it looks like it will be fun, but in the spirit of things people got very creative....

My question is, how powerful are templates, specifically am I going to be giving people ridiculous power if I say, let them apply undead templates to their chars...

Additionally, am I going the wrong way about this, is there a better way to play as undead? This seemed the most straight forward way, but I'm by no means a veteran Gm....

Hey, so I'm starting to GM and its all well and good but the only thing I am not positive on after reading the game master guide and core and advanced rule books, is monster health.....

The hit die are listed in the creatures type, so for example a bear, is an animal and so it has d8 hit die. My issue is where do I find how many hit die?

Additionally this creature type generalized hit die seems unusual to me as to use animals as an example again, this hit die d8 as far as I understand means a weasel, can have the same or potentially more HP than say, a Dire mastodon......or have I missed something?

Is there a table or something I've not read that I should have? Or does creature size come into it?

Thanks guys!

Looking for a nice continuous active online campaign or even standard game to join.......

Any takers?

Self explanatory really, I live in boxhill and am looking to join a pathfinder game somewhere..... I'm relatively new but understand the rules and the basis of the game and such.....

Not fussed on details just would like to find a game to join.
