True.. the disease of zombism being spread by bites is more of a scifi type thing..
But, on the other hand zombies pop up in Tamriel for multiple reasons.. (spoilers)
A. defiling a tomb (spoilers but, if you remember the black hand mission where you fake the guys death)
B. Experiment gone wrong (erthor for the magies guild recommendations)
C. like you said the dead just don't want to stay dead.
D. as you also said.. necromancers
E. No telling reasons I'm not including..
So.. I don't think "biting" would be too unreasonable to spread the curse of zombism.
I'm also aware that there is either a mod or its in the game naturally "goblin totems"... that if you steal.. the goblins will attempt to take back and they actually declare war onother goblin tribes for it..
SO it shouldn't be too hard to change the totem to a book slap the name "necronomicon" on it.. and change the goblins to skeletons or zombies..
ANyway.. I think it would be cool to toss down the necronomicon in the middle of a city and have 10-12 skeletons or zombies stroll into town looking for it.. I have seen gaurds go crazy and att a skeleton I summoned.. so imagen some poor sap picking up the nomicon and then the skeletons coming for him.. then the gaurds going for them.
