Grisgols aren't undead, they're a golem. They are, however, powered by undeath, as they get their animating force from magical energy siphoned from a still-existing lich's phylactery integrated into their body. So, yeah, there's a good reason paladins and other do-gooders probably won't like them, if they know anything about how a grisgol is constructed and animated.
As far as their physical appearance, ICly, a grisgol would appear to be made from numerous scraps of magical scrolls, magic wands, broken magic staves, scraps of magic weapons, half-empty potions, etc. I think it'd be very difficult to mistake one for a mummy with anything more than a cursory examination.
Yups.
I'd also like the name to be changed just because of what a Grisgol is powered by... I dobt every neutral summoner has gone to the problem of trapping a lich.
