Enraged Corpses is an undead being possessed by rage demons.

Background

Corpses possessed by rage demons go berserk and simply wade into their opponents mindlessly.

—From Codex entry: Corpse
BioWare canon
The following information is only mentioned in Dragon Age Tabletop. Certain portions of this media may no longer reflect currently established lore.

A rage demon that has newly crossed from the Fade has a bit more power and may succeed in animating a fresh corpse. They are clumsy but shrewd antagonists who are adept at appearing far less deadly than they actually are. The decomposition of an enraged corpse varies greatly in degree and appearance entirely depending on how their body died. Their rage is such that they prefer strangling their victims.[1]
