Necroid
Necroids are intact corpses that have had the mental essence of a sentient living being placed into them. The mental essence is used to animate the corpse instead of relying on the Negative Energy Plane. Good creatures are opposed to such practices and those that are forced into such a body become Neutral, while only Evil creatures would willingly undergo such a process.

Unconventional Necromancy (EX): Necroids are not tied to the Negative Energy Plane and are not necessarily evil (though good characters are unlikely to see it so), they are not subject to turning, destruction, rebuking, and commanding as all typical undead are. Healing and Harming spells have their normal effects on Necroids instead of the reversed effects experienced by all typical undead, they retain all other aspects of undeath.
