He uses this ability as a 14th level cleric.The Dead Shall Rise (Su): When the Aspect of Death kills a living creature with his scythe it raises as an undead in 1d4 rounds.  The type of undead that rises is dependent on the hit dice of the creature slain.  1-2 HD it rises as a ghoul,  3-4 HD it rises as a ghast, 5-8 HD wight, 8-11 HD boneclaw*, 12-15 mohrg, 16-20 Devourer.  A character that rises as an undead may only be brought  back to life with a limited wish, miracle, or wish spell.  A creature slain within the bounds of a consecrate or hallow spell will not rises as an undead, nor will a creature under the effects of a death ward, dispel evil, or holy aura.  If a gentle repose spell is cast on the slain character before he rises it will negate this effect.The Aspect of Death is treated as a 20th  level cleric to determine how many hit dice he can control.*MMIII p.17Spell-like Abilities: At will - greater dispel magic, unholy blight (DC 19), vampiric touch, 1/day enervation (DC 19).  Caster level 14th.  DC is Charisma-based.Aura of Desecration (Su): The Aspect of Death permanently emanates an aura that acts as if under the effects of desecrate spell cast on an altar.  This aura grants all undead within 20’ +2 profane bonus to all attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws.  Furthermore all turn checks in the area suffer a -6 profane penalty on turning checks.Aspect of FamineMedium UndeadHit Dice: 12d12 (78 hp)Initiative: +11Speed: 30 ft (6 squares), Fly 80ft.
