PFS StandardDecrepit Mummy

If a mummy has been in combat, endured the ravages of time, or been exposed to the elements, it can be so damaged it barely functions. These mummies continue guarding their tombs until they are too broken to even move.

Mummy

Source Bestiary pg. 240
While many cultures practice mummification of the dead for benign reasons, undead mummies are created through foul rituals, typically to provide eternally vigilant guardians.

Sidebar - Geb Mummification Practice

Neophytes to mummification typically apprentice to a morgue specializing in the process. Apprenticeships can last several years. Generally, the first mummies one produces are animals, usually of inferior quality. Those who become skilled remain rare enough to be a strategic resource and could be abducted, coerced, or bribed to change their allegiance or sabotage the mummification of their masters.
