Libris Mortis
''Libris Mortis: The Book of Undead'' is a book which is an official supplement for the 3.5 edition of the ''Dungeons and Dragons'' role-playing game. It is about the fictional undead within the ''D&D'' universe and comprises seven chapters, introducing new content for Dungeon Masters and players, as well as providing general information about undead.
It was received positively by reviewers, with praise for its material for Dungeon Masters and its illustrations, but received criticism for its weak player-oriented content. The book was the second in the series of books about specific monster types, the first being ''Draconomicon''. Similar books published since include ''Lords of Madness''. ''Libris Mortis'' included content from older books, such as ''Tome and Blood'' and the ''Book of Vile Darkness'', that had been reworked.
==Inspiration and production==
''Libris Mortis'' was written to present "a comprehensive overview of the undead" within the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' universe, offering new game rules and content, for both players and Dungeon Masters.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Libris Mortis: The Book of Undead )〕 The book is in the same format as the earlier published ''Draconomicon'', which instead focused on Dragons,〔 and was described as "a super-sized monster ecology" by the Nuketown podcast. Similar books that have since been released include ''Fiendish Codex I: Hordes of the Abyss'', ''Fiendish Codex II: Tyrants of the Nine Hells'' and ''Lords of Madness''.
Inspiration for the book's content came from numerous sources. In an interview posted on the Wizards of the Coast website, Collins said that inspiration came from ''Buffy the Vampire Slayer'', ''Angel'', various ''Dracula'' films, along with films ''The Mummy'' and ''The Mummy Returns''. Cordell said that pop culture has "less impact on () conceptualizations of the undead", but he did mention ''The Evil Dead'', ''28 Days Later'' and the novel ''Salem's Lot''. According to Collins, he and Cordell worked equally on the book, with Collins focusing more on material relating to character building, sample undead and running undead, while Cordell dealt with monster design and undead material, but he said that they "dabbled in each others'" sections quite a bit as well". He also mentioned a monster template designed by Matt Sernett that was originally written for the ''Monster Manual III'' and had been included in ''Libris Mortis''.〔
