In Dungeons & Dragons, a Mummy is an undead creature created through dark rituals and the preservation of a mortal body, often tied to ancient Egyptian-inspired themes. Typically, Mummies were once powerful individuals, such as pharaohs, priests, or royalty, who have been resurrected through magic after death to protect tombs or fulfill a divine purpose. Their undead state is marked by an aura of decay, often carrying curses and an insidious desire to protect the sacred places they inhabit.

Mummies are usually immune to many of the vulnerabilities common to living creatures, such as poison and disease, and can be resistant or immune to non-magical weapons. Their primary form of attack involves their unholy touch, which can drain the life force from living beings, causing both physical damage and the possibility of curses. A Mummy’s curse is often a key part of their abilities, inflicting misfortune or other debilitating effects on those who come into contact with them.

A Mummy’s presence is often marked by a sense of dread or unease, emanating an aura of necrotic energy that can sap the strength of nearby creatures. This aura not only weakens those around them but can also cause long-lasting effects like aging, disease, or even death. They can also command the dead or animate the corpses of those who enter their domain, using these to bolster their ranks.

Mummies are typically encountered in ancient tombs, crypts, or cursed ruins, often serving as the guardians of a long-forgotten treasure or a dark secret. They are a formidable challenge for adventurers, requiring careful strategy and preparation to overcome.
