Why the heck not? I'm planning on allowing transversion to undead in some way (it will potentially require some drastic structure changes though, as the mud was not originally designed to cope with it - but it can be done), but probably only greater undead - since zombies and so forth are defined as 'mindless' in the theme. This would probably occur if you were powerful enough magically (in terms of magical capacitance - very high compared to 'normal'), and 'perished' while dead (lost the will to return to your previous life), or deliberately forsook returning.
