I've always seen undead as "programmed" entities. Almost like a rudimental PC… If they have intelligence (like a lich) then they are closer to Demons.

By that logic if they embody LE as a driving malign intelligence… Does that mean that undead could break control?

The THEORY is that they are animated by the martial spirit of Karrnath and they serve its cause. But can you ever be sure of that?
