Zin-carla

Zin-carla, "spirit-wraith" in Undercommon, is a special type of undead created through a ritual performed by arachne. Lolth only grants the zin-carla ritual for specific tasks, which may never be purely to work revenge or bring harm on other drow. Failure brings the disfavor of Lolth. Zin-carla is, literally, the restoration of a spirit to that spirit's deceased body. For all intents and purposes, the spirit-wraith is the same as it was before death; however, the thing's free will is repressed, and under the control of a matron mother.
