[QUOTE="Gestalt, post: 3998868, member: 34784"] You might be thinking of the Spellstitched template from Complete Arcane. It gives weak spell resistance, some okay damage reduction, and a bunch of spell-like abilities based on wisdom. It also costs a fair bit of experience. You might also check out the Evolved Undead template from Libris Mortis. It seems a plausible effect for a clerical ritual, since it basically represents regular undead with more negative energy. It has a LA and gives some perks like fast healing and a (random) spell like ability that could be good or could be useless. If you don't mind not starting out undead, the Undeath After Death spell from Faerun is pretty stylish. It costs you a little constitution, but when you die you come back as a shambling corpse-thing bent on revenge. When I played a character with it we ruled that, like the Necropolitan process, you lost a level when you died and came back. The Crypt Spawn template it applies is very similar to the Necropolitan template. As an extra bonus, when you come back you keep your death wounds. [/QUOTE]
