Just like a PC.As always, that's up to the DM.No one outside NDA knows just how raise dead is described to work in 4E. Keith Baker leaked a bit about needing a destiny to be raised but later said that 'destiny' was his word and not necessarily in the rules at all.The rules may be as simple as saying that nobody below Paragon tier can be raised without direct divine intervention. It fits the available data reasonably well. (Supposedly, when Heroic tier PCs die, the typical response is to roll a new character, whereas Paragon tier characters can be resurrected with the expenditure of monumental effort, and Epic tier characters see death as a "speed bump". Since the vast majority of NPCs wouldn't make it to Paragon tier, and even those that did would still need some pretty major work done to resurrect them, most NPCs just won't get raised, even if they technically could be).</blockquote>
