Anyone know some good epic undead creatures that I might be able to reskin to and the number? I'm plain stupid when it comes to skins so any ideas would be appreciated :)

It all depends on your RP. Are you trying to RP something in particular from lore, a particular creature, entity, etc?

Cuz if not, I'm pretty sure "I'm reskinning this just because it looks cool" won't hold too much water down the request line.

Maybe look here for ideas.

Looking for something that a master necromancer could summon, without it being generic :) Just trying to figure out some ideas for now, but I don't know the templates either for the monsters or how to find them.

I would put forward an idea that I had for reskinning a pm emd, but I fear everyone and their grandma would like to do the same.

hint: there is at least one already in tarkuul. and technically its not undead, see libers mortis for more info ;) (I say technically because visually and for all intensive purposes it is, just not template-wise.)

ed: I would recommend not however going for the 'it looks kool and ive seen it so I wants it' route, there are way more interesting choices, and different characters would have better need of different choices. (that probably made little sense, just know I mean research before request.)

Libris Mortis is a 3.5 PnP sourcebook. It's about all things creepy and undead.

If you're interested look for it at your local book store, library or mayhaps on the internet in pdf form.

Or do what I do, and bribe your tabletop DM with pizza for his collection to borrow and thumb through it.

COOL UNDEAD, EH!? *jumps in*
Libris Mortis must be the best book for cool stuff. Aesthetically, I'm a fan of Wheeps. Depending on your character, an Angel of Decay might be cool, though I'm not sure what NWN models could be used to represent that. Necromentals are also pretty epic, pretty much an undead elemental. If you want to go into morbid territory, a Slaymate could be nice (and there's actually a good model in the hak for that).
Most of those aren't actually epic, and epic undead are pretty hard to find, with the exceptions of dracoliches or Atropals (and there's no way they're going to let you have a piece of god killing stuff for you). An Evolved template would, however, work for justifying their power (basically, undead can get more powerful over time) and, if I remember correctly, these can actually be applied as many times as one wishes (though the creature in question would have to have been in existence for a profanely long time).

EDIT. Here's a more or less complete list of that particular Libris Mortis section.

I vote undead camel. It already looks pretty evil.

Wow, there's an actual Gravedirt Golem model in the hak. You could use this or this as evolved versions of more basic undead. RANDOM IMAGE! Finally, this model looks cool, and I'm surprised to see that it is not overused. That is all.

*sigh* don't spam please.

What could be an awesome idea is an skele dragon. Not a dracolich mind, but a skelton Dragon.

Just think the sheer epicness the RP of finding, killing, raising, and skinning a dragon would be?

Also, I plan for my Red Wiz to have a Bone golem for his EMD.

Yeah, but skeletal dragons have been done before! Unoriginal! Also, they aren't evil enough.

actually skinning is done automatically at the raising.

O RLY?

Honestly didn't know that one.

But yeah, go ahead and grab a copy of Libris Mortis, you'll find some awesome ideas in there.

this is a huge extraplanar undead. go wild.
and yes animate dead which is used to create skeletons/zombies, in the case of skeletons the muscle and skin just drop from around the bones. did you think that mages want to get their hands dirty?

Thanks for the ideas, and thanks for the download for the book wereguy! Gonna check it out, thinking maybe a skeletal wyrmling, and still debating on a good undead summon for EMD as a follower of Kieransalee, as badass as the angel looks, I'm thinking maybe one of the night creatures, but I'm thinking maybe something a little more (Hate to say this when referring to undead!) girly would work better. Gonna debate for a while longer.
Not to mention my char would fear anything she thinks she could loose control over and get mutilated by.

The most probable for you to get from the night creatures is the humanoid one, becouse it could be simply be an enlargened shadow. I doubt [insert the guy doing request moddings] would be able to/want to waste time trying to create you a shadowy gigantic centipede/bat.

or as you wanted more girly, you could go for a nightmuncher (gigantic shadow bunny) XD

edit: I happened to stumble upon a small fact: they are native to plane of shadow.
