Fungal Infestation (4/Day) If a beast or a humanoid that is Small or Medium dies within 10 feet of Garlic Shaman, it can use its reaction to animate it, causing it to stand up immediately with 1 hit point. The creature uses the Zombie stat block in the Monster Manual. It remains animate for 1 hour, after which time it collapses and dies. In combat, the zombie's turn comes immediately after Garlic Shaman's. It obeys its mental commands, and the only action it can take is the Attack action, making one melee attack. |
