Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ibram" data-source="post: 1814799" data-attributes="member: 17640">Even finding a magic user powerful enough to bring back the dead is a difficult task IMC (Magic is rather rare).The spells that do bring people back are both dark and dangerous... as is fitting of a spell that reaches across the veil and tears a soul from its eternal rest.  Those who come back are "different" somehow, changed by what they saw beyond the mortal world.  There are ways to limit the changes... but those are among the darkest of arts.Rules wise here are the changes...Rase Dead is called Revitalize: when cast the caster must make a wisdom check DC 10+# of rounds the target has been dead. if the check succedes then the target returns to life, if it fails then the worng spirit has been put into the body (this could be some harmless spirit or the soul of one of your recently vanquished enemies).Resurection is called "Unhallowed Revitrification of the Flesh":  The target loses 1d4 ability points from each ability, unless a creature of at least 1/2 HD of the target is sacrificed for each ability.  there is also a 20% chance - 1/2 the casters HD that the target will come back as an undead (usualy as some kind of wight).True Resurection is called "Dark Resurection": when cast 13 creatures with at least 1/2 HD of the target must be sacrificed.  the target must make a will save DC 20+number of years dead or come back insane.</blockquote>
