Having an Undead Pet


Advice


I'm looking at the various ways a PC can get their hands on an Undead pet - that is, an Undead creature a bit more powerful and controllable than a simple zombie or create undead creature. So far, I've found the Undead Lord archetype for Clerics, the Undead Appearance evolution for a Summoner's Eidolon, and the Gravewalker Witch archetype. Does anyone know of any other ways to get an EverQuest-style undead pet to follow me around?

(Bonus points if it helps me wield a scythe.)


Two words: Flesh Golem.


Leadership + intelligent undead cohort.

I think the 3.5 book Libris Mortis had a spell stitched familiar.


While not at all powerful, dancing animated mouse skeletons cloaked in colorful continual flame spells were ALL the rage among the courtiers in Geb about a century ago...

Shadowdancer summons a modified version of the Shadow.


The Death Mage 3rd party class is EXACTLY what you want. Gives you necromantic spellcasting, proficency with medium armor and scytes and if you take the right path, an undead familiar AND a modified leadership-skill with undead minions. Might take some convincing your GM though, because it can be rather high powered if played right.
