+{{:abilities:undead.png?nolink}} **Undead** is a [[unit abilities|special trait]] in Dominions 5. It represents a class of [[units|unit]] that can only be lead by special [[commander|commanders]] and are susceptible to ??Banishment?? and its variants.
-Undead units generally are not hindered by darkness, have high cold and poison resistance, and have high [[morale]].
+Undead generally have at least partial [[darkvision]] or [[spirit sight ]] and high [[elemental-resistance|cold and poison resistance]]. All of them [[need not eat]] and are unaffected by [[disease]] (they can have the affliction but won't suffer from it).
+They tend to have high Max Ages that make [[Decay]] less effective against them, but despite what the in-game description for the Undead trait implies they can suffer penalties and afflictions from [[old age]].
-Some, such as ??Longdead?? and ??Soulless??, are mindless, soulless, and have 50 morale. These will not retreat, but will dissolve on the battlefield if left without undead leadership.
-Many other undead (for instance, ??Lictor?? and ??Ghost??) have minds, and follow normal morale rules.
+Undead generally have high [[Morale]], generally keeping them from routing as long as they have a commander with **Undead Leadership** on their side. Some, such as ??Longdead?? and ??Soulless??, are [[mindless]] and will never rout; they will instead stop moving and fall to pieces on the battlefield, if left without undead leadership. Note that only //some// Undead behave like this; many types, such as ??Lictor??s and ??Ghost??s, have minds and follow normal morale rules.
+{{:abilities:demon.png?nolink}} **[[Demon|Demons]]** are //technically// undead, but have different vulnerabilities.

 Being undead grants no inherent protection against fatigue and does not inherently prevent drowning, although many undead also have the [[amphibious]] or [[poor-amphibian]] special abilities.
-In addition to banishment, undead can be targeted by some particular spells like ??Solar Rays?? and ??Undead Mastery??.
