Not seeing the need for increased perception... also...

Your Rage Zombies here are perfectly playable as PCs.

So, have you used living zombies in your settings?
Nope. But I mostly run Fantasy or Fallout, so, no not really.

(technically in Fallout the Feral Ghouls are basically 'living' zombies, but I don't run them as such in my system, having given them the full run of Undead benefits in my setting)

Quote:
Are they similar to the victims of the rage plague (which suffer from a 0 CP change) or are they less capable?
Since they probably should have Intolerance (non-Ghouls), my Ferals are far harder to get along with. Your's don't attack on sight, for instance.

Quote:
In your opinion, are living zombies better than undead zombies and, if so, why?
No. They have different uses and different facets.
