who's post is it now?

Can I attempt to discern the underlying effects of the magic keeping the zombies together?

If would be rather metagame if Ry'leh started to heal the zombies suddenly.

If you try to use poison, you'll actually "heal" them a bit per round, however, if you use Cure, you'll "damage" them, and quite a bit, too. Do whichever you think R'lyeh would do in that situation. I mean, Poison is HARDLY a normal attack.
