      Maybe have x non-combat cantrips given free, so people can still choose?

      Because the trope its generally trying to cater to is not a generic 'Protection' effect. Protection from Good/Evil/Neutrality was actually more of a Protection from the Supernatural effect. It generally didn't and never would affect non-magical beings, no matter what their alignment even in the 1e D&D game. Extraplanar creatures were effected, and they were classified by their alignments generally, because in 1e, among other things, there were distinct alignment planes of existence that...

      I see worries that tracking expertise over the course of a long round could pull players out of the story.
      You could represent expertise dice WITH ACTUAL DICE.
      If you have 5d6 in XD, then stack 5 six-siders in front of you at the start of your turn. If you use 2 on attack, they go into the center of the table. You can then use the remaining 3 on parrying, attacks of opportunity, etc.
      This prevents the need to track anything in your head.

      You could split XD into Expertise Dice and Damage Dice.
      When a player gains an XD according to currently rules, give fighters the choice to gain a "Damage Die" instead, that adds to every attack. Then get rid of Deadly Strike. This will let players differentiate between "Simple Fighter" and a fighter with a variety of combat options.
      Alternatively, replace XD with "Action Points", but still give fighters the choice between "one action point" and "one damage die" at key levels. Then,...

      The important part for any undead is a focus on the "rule of three". Why are they undead. What is their desire. How do they naturally expire. Zombies, skeletons, and ghouls are most often times made by necromancers, gods or very corrupt magical areas. Their desires are what their master bids or wonton destruction and death "mindless murder" being the key. They all expire when the magic or power that made them expires. Vampires liches are different in that they either choose or resolve that...

      If a Wight or Wraith kills a living being that being becomes a Wight or Wraith but it does NOT have the ability to create any more of its kind. AKA they are a lesser Wight or Wraith. It keeps the threat of being turned into something so horrible but stops the perpetuation craziness.

      Older editions mentionned either wizards or priests could become liches.
      Ravenloft monstrous compendium even had Psionic Liches

      Greater Mummies should be immune to fire in a big way due to their magical natures and their power and make sure that the there are different kinds of liches; 2nd edition Ravenloft had several kinds of liches from Defiler Liches, Elemental Liches, Drow Liches, and Psionic Liches as well as Dracoliches I would be really cool to include them in it
