Not in the normal shop. This is one of the “spare” Undead pieces: you mainly get it when a piece holding an Ascetic's Cap is reborn as a random Undead, or through Pandaren fishing.

Aqir · Infection
- (2) All non-Aqir allies are Infected. When an Infected piece dies while another Infected copy of the same piece (any star) is still on your board, a random Aqir hatches from the body. Its level matches the strongest surviving copy.
- (4) Your Aqir pieces are Infected too. When an Aqir dies while another copy of it is on your board (Infected or not), it hatches a random Aqir one level higher than the strongest surviving copy.
Undead · Plague
- (3) All non-Undead pieces on the board lose 10% max HP.
- (6) They lose another 30% (-40% total).
- (9) Plagued pieces also lose 5% max HP every 2s, down to a minimum of 5% of their base max HP.
Assassin · Coup de Grace
At the start of each battle, Assassins leap behind the enemy lineup with their first move. (The guaranteed critical hit after the leap needs the (3) Assassin bonus or higher.)
- (3) Assassins get a 15% chance to crit for 250% damage. Their first hit after the leap always crits.
- (6) Assassins get an extra, separate 15% chance to crit for 400% damage, which stacks with the (3) bonus. The post-leap crit is 250% or 400% at random.
- (9) Assassins can leap again after getting a kill, or when a 5-10 second timer runs out. Every post-leap hit uses the highest crit the piece has (at least 400%).
