Zombies are generic monsters found throughout Gielinor, often located in cemeteries, sewers, and dungeons. They count as undead and are weak to the effects of both the Salve amulet and the Crumble Undead spell.

Most common zombies are low-leveled, hence serving as a decent training method for low-level players. Many locations have distinct zombie variants that have different combat levels, drops, and appearances.

• Zombies frequently drop fishing bait due to the fact that fishing bait is comprised of maggots. This is supported in dialogue during Recipe For Disaster, as well as issue 25 of the God Letters^[1].
