How do you get the chance to even beat death?
With FT, you can get "long life" from the genie when the "Otherwise Useless Gypsy"(TM) drops off a lamp. This, I believe enables the corpse-to-be to play for his/her own life.

I've actually been trying to make a Dorian Gray painting for the game.
This idea is appealing and full of unbridled win.

Ja, I want also. Just the kind of thing for Koschei the Deathless as well.

"Cheat Death" is the one that gives a chance to play find-the-shiny. "Long Life" works just like the elixir.

When Death comes, you have to have someone nearby that has a really good relationship with the "deceased to be", and they have to plead with Grimmy to spare that sim's life.
Then Grimmy will toss the dice, and usually (but not always) the pleader has even odds of beating death. Of course I just have NL, so the "deceased-to-be" doesn't turn into a zombie, but whatever.
The sim to be taken usually doesn't have a chance in hell for pleading. They have to have someone else do it for them.
You're getting things mixed up, which isn't surprising since you don't have the EP for the features. Pleading for a loved one results in them either losing and dying or winning and living. It is, IIRC, only an option for deaths other than by old age. There is no chance of zombification. Zombification is possible when using the Resurrect-o-matron (sp?) from the Paranormal career included in Uni. Resurrection is also an option from the genie lamp from FT, but I'm not sure if there is a chance of zombification. I haven't played with that option.
Edit: I just saw a story the resurrected using the genie, and the target did turn zombie. So unless they messed with the settings (and I don't think they were imaginative to do so) zombies are a possible result of genie resurrections.

Resurrect-o-Nomitron? o-Nomatron? o-nomi-... The Bone Phone.
