The same could work with things like a bless spell. You were in animal form at the time of death, so you might just be not-humanoid enough to be raised as a bodak.by RAW, there are also some options:-destroy the body, true resurrect in town-have your cleric friend animate you as a zombie before you turn into a bodak. You can be killed and raised/resurrected in town after your zombie-self is killed. this may have alignment repercussions for your cleric/pally friend.-tie up your body (important: use a blindfold too for that death-gaze), or stuff it in a sturdy coffin, or both. soaking the body in holy water for 24 hours is optional. so is leaving the body outside in the sun. this will not prevent you being turned into a bodak, but will kill the bodak pretty quickly, after which your body can be raised. This works better if you were killed in the daytime, since 24 hours after death will once again be daytime.</blockquote>
