First some background: In my setting, native gnomes are cursed to explode when they reach the age of fifty. This is because an incredibly epic wizard, Kit Nosrac, hates them with a passion. My brother wanted to make a gnome warmage who tried to subvert this by becoming a lich (yes, its a female with pink pigtails, for that he shall suffer). But my brother has requested that I make his lich "doomed" to meet Kit Nosrac some day, and have him blow him up. "ahh, very clever way of subverting it. BOOM".
I came up with the funniest way to do it: Force the lich to come back to life and then allow the curse to take its course (the gnome was 40 seconds from the moment of splody when she turned into a lich.).
Now I am curious how one could do this legally with the rules for epic spells. I mean sure I can always go with "rule of funny" but I really wanna know. Basically I want the gp and xp costs, along with a final spellcraft DC. Note that Kit Nosrac is high enough level and has epic buffing spells that give him a high enough intellect to tackle just about any spellcraft DC.
-No save
-No SR
-No components
-Quickened
-The target is brought back from the dead whether he wants it or not.
-If it targets an undead, it returns to its original form
-If the target has its soul in a vessel, the vessel is broken and the soul is reunited with the body.
My only problem is that I have trouble doing anything ad hoc. Period. There isnt a specific rule about denying saves....guess they didn't want players building the Tomb of Horrors? Meh.
Any help will be appreciated
