At your current level I would say that you should stay the F*** away from Draugr villages until you got proper gear.

Since it is too late now, I would follow @Zep Tepi's advice and do a naked corpse run. Don't look back, just run using Eythgir.

You CAN take on Draugr villages in mostly Black Forest gear, but you need to be aware of higher level Draugrs and spawners. Take out the spawners BEFORE killing the Draugrs close by, or they will respawn with a higher level. You will stand no chance against these in low end gear.

My gear on my second char with way more experience under his belt, when I took out the Draugr village where I wanted to build my next home:

1. Full Lvl 3 Troll armor (don't bother with Bronze armor, you're wasting precious resources and it is not worth it).
2. Lvl 3 Bronze buckler (VERY important! It allows you to block and parry Draugr attacks).
3. Lvl 3 Bronze axe and lvl 2 abyssal dagger (very effective against Draugr).
4. Fully fed with the best food the Black Forest has to offer.

I was fully aware of spawners and knew how to deal with them. I advise you to get the parry technique down pat while practicing on Grey Dwarves, then use it on Draugrs. You will kill them easily.

Good Luck!

Edit: Parrying with a lvl 3 Bronze buckler will work up to one star Draugrs and Draugr elites. If you see a two star Draugr: Run. Kite it and pepper it with arrows from afar, or just run.
