And... magnifique!

This is a guy with a little blood on him, more interested in going to the mall than spreading like a virulent plague over the surface of the earth. Really, the only similarity between him and a real zombie is that one makes you frightened of brain eaters and the other makes you frightened for brain eaters.

How to Encounter

• Using Disguise Foe skill on foes whose name starts with M or Z.

Notes

• Foes's stats and drops will be replaced by those of the disguised form.

• Using ionic tonic doesn't change the resulting disguise, and the resulting foe keeps the ionic in the name as well as the electrical weakness.
• Foes that can't be replicated also can't be disguised with the exception of:

Scaling foes;

Foes from The streets of Somerset;

footpath footpad and ghost of X;
