Archimedes the Undying is a community created cosmetic item for the Medic. It is the Medic's pet dove, Archimedes, but "zombified", with rotting flesh, glowing eyes, and exposed neck bones (where he was hit by a piece of Heavy's exploding heart in Meet the Medic and where he wore a neck brace in Shadow Boxers). Like Archimedes, he perches on the Medic's shoulder, and moves around when the Medic walks. Equipping this item alters the Medic's voice responses.

This item can only be worn around Halloween or during a Full Moon; at other times of the year, it does not appear in gameplay, unless the server has Halloween mode enabled. However, it can be equipped at any time and can still be viewed on the loadout screen even when it is not visible during games.

When players equipped with this item kill an enemy unassisted by another player, the killfeed shows everyone in Pyroland that it gets the assist, with its custom name if it has one.

Archimedes the Undying was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
