orcus' official relationship with undeath has been understated. orcus was the first undead. he is the master of the domain of undeath. he created most of the types of undead creatures.
it is believed that orcus, at some time after changing from a primordial into a demon lord, did battle in the shadowfell with one or more gods and was destroyed. for reason not as yet understood nor repeated, the necrotic energies of the shadowfell infused orcus' corpse and brought him from a state of death to undeath. although, orcus was soon after repelled from the shadowfell, he has forever remained obsessed with that plane, and the shadowfell's necrotic energies have played a pivotal role in the creation and existence of multitudes of undead creature types.
as i have mentioned in a prior post, orcus seeks to turn all living creatures in undead; thereby, obtaining dominion over all creatures.
