Reborn
Just as undead are corpses animated by negative energy, you can animate a corpse with positive energy. A corpse animated in this fashion is known as a reborn. Reborn are like undead in most cases, but interact with positive energy like living creatures. Reborn can be created with the spell Artificial Life.
Creating a Reborn
"Reborn" is an acquired template that can be added to any undead creature (referred to hereafter as the base creature).
A reborn uses all the base creature’s statistics and special abilities except as noted here.
Type
The reborn retains the base creature's type of undead.
Special Qualities
As the base creature plus Positive Animation (see below):
Positive Animation (Ex): Unlike most undead, reborn are powered by positive energy. As a result, effects that use positive or negative energy affect reborn as if they were living creatures rather than undead (so cure spells heal them and inflict spells harm them).
Furthermore, the effects of turn undead and rebuke undead are reversed for reborn (so using turn undead rebukes/controls reborn and vice versa).
Alignment
Any (remove any requirements on the base creature).
