[QUOTE="Khelon Testudo, post: 8768952, member: 7017360"] I've created a couple of spells for necromancers. The first is to make it convenient to create skeletons from battlefield casualties; the other is to fulfil a scene that any necromancer worth their salt should be capable of. [I][B]Excarnate Corpse[/B] 1st level necromancy[/I] Casting Time: 1 minute (ritual) Range: 30 feet Components: V, S, small bone Duration: Instant You target the corpse of a humanoid or beast, medium-sized or smaller, that has a skeleton. The spell summons a magical swarm of dermestid beetles that miraculously scour away any flesh and organic material, leaving an inanimate skeleton. At Higher Levels: For each level the spell slot used is above 1st level, the caster can excarnate an additional 2 creatures#. [I] [B]Arise from the Grave[/B] 5th level necromancy[/I] Casting Time: 10 minutes (ritual) Range: 30 feet radius, 10 foot deep Components: V, S, skull of a goat Duration: Instant You stand in an area that you think the dead are buried, and call on them to dig themselves out of their graves. Up to five medium sized or smaller humanoid skeletons will dig through to the surface and be under your control as per Animate Dead. If the corpses were buried less than 2 months ago, they will arise as zombies instead. At Higher Levels: For each level the spell slot used is above 5th level, the caster can excarnate an additional 2 creatures#. #edited based on comments in thread. [/QUOTE]
