Technonecromancy
Enoch looks over the remarkably fresh humanoid standing before him. The zombie remains motionless. He tests it's adheraence to his commands, repositioning, rotating, sitting, standing. Then he commences testing neurological synapses throughout the body, seeing if and how they respond to various stimuli.

When he gets a chance, Enoch has some questions for the Captain:

"Are there undead who do have an active metabolism? Maybe vampires? If so, attempting to install a powered cybernetic implant on one may work."

Are there variants of undead powered by positive energy? Any of those with a metabolism?

Can you acquire a magical battery for this research? Something that can supply electricity and/or heat? There are two primary issues to solve, powering the implant, and connecting the consciousness, this can solve the former.



Can undead receive and support grafts from the living?
 
Not sure how you want to do this. Enoch has spare parts he can easily fabricate some simplistic cybernetics. Starting with basic minor prosthetics and see if/how the zombies can interact with them on various pure mechanical and then bioelectrical levels.

Enoch would likely be aware of the concept of golems from his Knowledge (Occult), possibly Flesh Golems (at least the concept of Frankenstein and his monster). I, the player am aware of things such as Phyrexians from Magic, the Gathering. Would Enoch even have that type of rumor or concept?

Enoch has a cybernetics supplier on the station, has he seen or heard about any of the magical cybernetics? There are a bunch in D20 Cyberspace. Also, has he heard or know anything about D&D style Grafts? Particularly undead grafts.

Would Enoch or the Captain know about Deathless from Eberron?

Current knowledge:
Two types of implants: Powered and Inert.
Inert can be installed on anything, these work on corporeal undead.

Many powered cybernetics run off the body somehow per core rules. It's not explained directly how that I could find. Presumably off of latent bioelectricity. Some have internal power sources also.

Most (all?) Undead lack bioelectrical activity.

Living creatures have neuron connections that powered cybernetics connect to. In undead, there are no active synapses (no metabolism?). Vampires may be an exception.
