Undead Counterpart	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })An enemy in a game that's an undead version of another enemy. Just like how many enemies have elemental variations, many enemies also have undead versions. Undead Counterparts may be based on mooks, mini-bosses, or even main bosses. For this trope to be invoked, the following criteria must be met: The enemy must have both a living version and an undead version. They must be an enemy both times. A civilian or ally who turns into an enemy zombie doesn't count. Some or all of the enemy's living body must be used. An enemy who turns into a ghost, or an enemy who possesses another body after their previous host is destroyed, does not invoke this trope. A somewhat disturbing implication of this is that every Undead Counterpart of the enemy could be a previously-living enemy that you killed. Maybe they're out for revenge? Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })A Sub-Trope of Underground Monkey. Undead Counterparts are often Dem Bones and may be Nocturnal Mooks. They can also have Nigh-Invulnerability or be an Invincible Minor Minion. The use of this trope can result in Fridge Horror. Compare Face–Monster Turn, where a good guy turns into a bad guy against their will. Examples:

Dragon Age: Origins: In the DLC The Golems of Amgarrak, the Harvester is a golem variant made up of a large pile of corpses that have been possessed by a Fade spirit. Ordinary golems are stone constructs created from dwarves. The Harvester returns in Dragon Age II. Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening: The Queen of the Blackmarsh is a spectral dragon that can be summoned and killed by the player for valuable loot. No ordinary dragons can be encountered in the game, but can be encountered in the base game.

They're only encountered at night, as daylight destroys them, and are Glass Cannons compared to their living counterparts — any blow will cause them to collapse into a pile of bones, although they'll keep reforming until their skulls are destroyed.

Undead Counterpart / int_5bd0554b	comment	Warcraft: Warcraft II: Death Knights were orc Squishy Wizards, the Horde equivalent to the Alliance's mages. (While technically ghosts bound into the bodies of human knights, their original bodies long-since gone, they're still the equivalent at this point.) In III, orc Death Knights were remade as Liches, retaining only their signature Death and Decay spell, while the Archmage kept the (nerfed) Blizzard spell. This transformation also happened to Kel'thuzad, a human mage who explored the darker arts and was kicked out of The Magocracy for it. Warcraft III: The expansion has Skeletal Orcs, Skeletal Orc Grunts, and Skeletal Orc Champions, all of which are differently-statted variations on the Orc Grunt. They're neutral monsters, however, and there's no spell to turn dead grunts into their undead equivalent in standard games. Paladins and Death Knights (here a melee unit, human nobles who pledged themselves to Nerzh'ul) are designed to be good/evil counterparts of each other (each has a healing spell that hurts the undead/living, an invulnerable shield/ a Devour the Dragon self-heal, a defensive/regeneration aura, and a Resurrection/Animate Dead spell), though only one paladin is seen falling into undeath (Arthas).

Undead Counterpart / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: Nearly any creature you encounter can show up in undead form, usually thanks to a powerful necromancer. Beholders and dragons are bad enough, but zombie beholders and zombie dragons are just plain awful, and that's not getting into death tyrants and dracoliches (who unlike their zombie brethren keep/gain intelligence and supernatural powers). Depending on the rules of the setting, undead creatures may be immune to fear spells or able to deal out huge amounts of necrotic damage when they attack. Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition typically handles this on the mechanical side by means of "templates" — a recipe of changes a DM can make to a given statblock to convert any creature into, in this case, an undead version. For example, a basic zombie involves, among other things, changing the creature type to "undead" and its Character Alignment to Neutral Evil, changing all racial hit dice to d12 and removing class level hit dice, and adding damage reduction 5/slashing. Other undead templates (like "ghost", "lich" or "vampire") exist; the most dangerous are those keeping the class levels and powers of the original creature.

In MK 11 you can end up fighting both thanks to time travel. Scorpion also inverts this trope, as he was originally introduced as an undead revenant and then appears in living form in the later games. This example lies on the edge of this trope though as you can choose to play as nearly all the characters transformed this way, so whether or not they are an enemy depends on who you are playing as.

Some species lack Flood forms, due to either being too weak to be useful beyond providing bio-mass (Grunts and Jackals) or being too alien in biology to properly infect (Hunters and Engineers). Though flood-infected humans are in almost every Halo game, normal people don't show up as enemies in most games.

Unlike their easily-defeated living counterparts, they can't usually be put down permanently — they'll collapse into a pile of bones if struck by an attack, but will soon reassemble themselves and continue on their way.

Undead Counterpart / int_c137ae09	comment	God of War (PS4): Played With the Hel-Walkers; while they aren't the counterpart to any living type of enemy in specific, the second encounter with them happens after Kratos kills human bandits trying to eat him and Atreus. They return within seconds as undead, as a symptom of an unbalanced world.

In a later stage set in a mausoleum, you encounter this enemy again, amidst hordes and hordes of zombies and ghouls, and from their Undeathly Pallor you realize their incarnations are actually undead.

Undead Counterpart / int_da02c1ef	comment	Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door: Over the course of the game, Mario encounters the dragon siblings and bosses Hooktail and Gloomtail. Later, he finds their elder sibling, Bonetail, at the end of the Pit of 100 Trials; having been trapped there for ages, Bonetail starved to death and is now an animated skeleton. Although they're all bosses, they're incredibly similar; Bonetail's essentially a new skin (No Pun Intended) for Hooktail.

Undead Counterpart / int_e44291b7	comment	The Legend of Spyro: In the first two games, the most common enemies that Spyro faces are the Apes. In Dawn of the Dragon, he instead faces groups of skeletal Apes, revealed to have been created when the Big Bad, displeased with their shallow, mercenary loyalty to him, cursed the Apes to become undead creatures with a hunger for the energy of others that can never be filled.

Their stats aren't too different from one another though, having roughly the same amount of health, using their fists, and throwing knives in battle, with the only difference being aesthetics-wise.
