So after some chatting with several mods, i need to clarify some stuff, and i've decided to bulk in some stuff that would be changed as part of the grand re-write. Part of this includes adding more weaknesses, and rewriting the bit about the sarcophagus, and adding a bit i changed to a bit about the glamour. Added bits are in bold.
So hopefully this should be alright?

Similarly, magic designed to heal damages him, and even being around those performing healing magic slows down the regeneration of his energy and causes headaches, fatigue, and even pain if used in within about a meter. He is extremely weak to divine magic, being an abominable undead creature. Divine magic consists of holy magic, the magic of gods and any magic their followers use which channel that god. Divine individuals are gods and subsets of gods. A demigod will still cause problems but it will not be as severe as those of a god. Angels and any other individuals who get their powers from a divine source have a similar effect. Divine magic is highly effective against him and his undead, and divine individuals have a similar effect, and he, and they, will be quickly deanimated. He can feel the presence of a divine individual within five meters which severely limits and weakens his powers, and touching a divine individual, not in a violent sense, would cause him physical pain, similar to touching a hot stove. If a divine individual or someone wielding divine magic or a divine item were to attack him, he would be deanimated after about one hit. Similarly, he is effected by divine auras, standing in which he will be weakened and easily deanimated with even a single strike. Divine magic particularly extends the time for him to reanimate, as the aura left behind makes reanimation difficult. Blunt force attacks are highly effective. He also cannot enter active churches, and divine icons and objects cause him headaches and paraesthesia, and a severe weakening of his powers, similar to being near a divine individual. Any aura or object with the types of magic charlie is weak to effect him like an individual using that magic. Nature magic, and magic generally associated with life magic effects him the same was as divine magic.
He is weak to nullification, magic draining and anything designed to remove or contain magic, all of which reduce him to bones. Energy magic (for example the ability to throw bolts of energy, or energy weapons ect.) briefly stuns him, interrupting any powers he is currently using and prevents him being able to resurrect undead, albeit for a few minutes.

The Sarcophagus - Charlie has an extradimensional chest, which he nicknamed the sarcophagus. It is old, very old, and is inlaid with bone strips to form spiderlike legs at the bottom. It resembles an ancient stone tomb, and is carved with an array of symbols, some in hieroglyphics, others in languages lost to the mists of time. Inside this chest is Charlie’s house. The chest is about 50cm deep and 1m wide, but when opened can grow to around 2M square to remove larger zombies. It can only grow this large for organic items, so larger items must be brought in piece by piece. The sarcophagus has a set of stairs, with shelves on either side, leading down into a central corridor. The rooms inside are quite large, consisting of one of the world’s largest personal libraries, a large-hangar like room where Charlie’s undead are stored, a small gallery, kitchen, a large hall, and several other rooms. Due to its method of construction, it is quite difficult to find your way around the inside of the chest, as each room was constructed when Charlie needed it and where it fit, with no idea of a grand design. The chest itself opens into a pocket dimension full of incredibly hard stone. It takes months of effort to make any progress with the creation of a room. Larger rooms, such as the hangar and library, were hollowed out by people other than Charlie, with magical abilities more suited to the destruction of stone.
Due to there being no source of heat within the realm, the inside of the chest is freezing cold. Great for storing zombies, but not so great for guests. The only sources of heat are three of small stones, which Charlie acquired through mysterious circumstances. Within the aura of these stones, the temperature is kept at a more comfortable 20°C with a low humidity, perfect for storing books or entertaining guests. One of these is permanently housed within the library, ensuring that the books are kept from being damaged, and the other pair are kept in the mouth of the chest, for if Charlie entertains guests. While two are big enough to heat large rooms, such as the library, one is only big enough to project heat enough for one person. Due to the magic of the stones, they must be kept inside the chest or else they break down into dust. The library contains almost any books Charlie could get his bony little hands on, upwards of fifty thousand books, in everything from Aardvark hunting to Zucchini growing. Charlie doesn't so much care about the book, but the knowledge contained within, so any books which are in danger of being damaged, several undead copy out into new books, each mimicing Charlie's own immaculate copperplate handwriting. He does have several notable books, which he keeps in special containers, for the book itself is more interesting than the knowledge: A lost Shakespeare manuscript, in the bard's own handwriting, an original draft of Chaurcer's Canterbury Tales, one of Da-Vinci's journals on anatomy, and several of racks of scrolls he saved from the sacking of the Library of Alexandria (only a couple proved to be useful, and some weren't even right). One thing he does not have, which is a permanent disappointment, is religious books, as he can't pick them up without pain.
This sarcophagus consists of two separate entities. The chest itself, and the bone inlaid into it, which forms spider-like legs underneath. Both are attached such that they look as part of a single organism, but the bone is actually an undead creature, whose sole job is to carry the chest. It can either follow Charlie, or be told to stay and it will stay where it is, depending on mental commands. However, like all of Charlie's undead, once it has been away from Charlie long enough, it loses it's ability to become animated and becomes just a rather large heavy chest. Due to the weight, the undead carrying the sarcophagus cannot move at more than walking pace.
The sarcophagus is... impractical. It's big. It's square. It's stone. Its too heavy for charlie to lift, it struggles through crowds, being wide and low to the ground it takes a bit extra time for it to go up stairs. Its not exactly inconspicuous. It tends to walk behind him quite a bit. Its just a little bit too wide for doorways, and needs to go in lengthways. It’s quite stupid too. It doesn't really have intelligent thought more than 'follow charlie'.

Glamour - Charlie has a glamour to make him look human. This glamour can be switched on and off at will. If he needs to use high amounts of energy, he switches it off, or if he is weakened or drained it can turn off. Due to him being unable to use his own blood in the spell that created it, It is also effected by his emotions, such as any strong emotion, and during these periods, and at random times, it can falter and briefly fail for a fraction of a second, and show parts of his natural body. If he is angry it can fail entirely.
So hopefully this should be alright?
