* ''VideoGame/FableI'': Nostro was a legendary Hero in life, but lingered as a ghost because he died by poison rather than by the sword. The protagonist can face him and his undead TrueCompanions in battle to give them the warrior's deaths they always wanted.

** Skeleton warriors are the skeletal remains of high-level fighters who retain their superb fighting ability. They wear rotting armor and use swords (usually two-handed swords). Each skeleton warrior's soul is trapped in a golden circlet. The warrior can be controlled by anyone who puts its circlet upon his own head and concentrates.

* ''WesternAnimation/SkeletonWarriors'': The main antagonistic force of the series is, naturally, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin skeleton warriors]]. Skeleton Warriors retain their intelligence and most of their personality, albeit [[DrunkOnTheDarkSide gaining an undying loyalty to Baron Dark]] in the process, and are shown operating both melee weaponry and futuristic vehicles and rifles.

* ''Literature/TheLegendOfSunKnight'' has plenty.
** A Death Knight is a powerful undead created from a deep grudge and an unattainable desire; while considered worthy of an entire squad's attention on their own, they can also evolve into [[TheDreaded Death Lords]], which are considered to be national emergencies. Sun's old friend Roland became a Death Knight after being tortured to death, and later a Death Lord as part of Sun's [[BatmanGambit gambit]]. [[spoiler:After gaining the power of the Demon King, Roland evolves into the final form, a Death Monarch]].
** A Death Knight is not to be mistaken with what Sun calls a 'dead knight', which is simply a knight who was raised from the dead as a common zombie.
** In later books, Sun encounters a literal army of undead, which he finds shockingly disciplined and well-equipped. Among the EliteMooks are skeleton warriors, werewolves, and witches, all led by a general.

** The Vampire Coast armies of Luthor Harkon (not an official army, but an army list for sixth edition was added in ''White Dwarf'') consists of the re-animated corpses sailors and mariners. Either as a result of the corpses' freshness, some thematic connection or just a quirk of Harkon's reanimation method, Vampire Coast zombies maintain some 'spark' of their former life and have better stats than those of the Vampire Counts. They can also wield handguns (albeit very poorly).

** Zombies, despite being the most common type of undead, are usually not shown with armor or weapons to reflect their typical status as weak and expendable cannon fodder, but exceptions exist. The most prominent ones are the [[https://scryfall.com/card/isd/43/armored-skaab skaabs]] of Innistrad, FrankensteinsMonster-type things that often have weaponry and heavy armor grafted onto them during their creation, and the [[https://scryfall.com/card/hou/104/neheb-the-eternal eternals]], an army of elite super-zombies created by [[spoiler:[[BigBad Nicol Bolas]] from the bodies of the greatest fighters and champions of an entire world]], all of which are plated in blue mineral and armed with weapons they can use ''extremely'' well.
