It takes a DC 13 craft (taxidermy) or DC 13 (leatherworking) check to create the body.Caster Level 9; craft construct; Animate Dead, Confusion, Enervation, Geas/Quest; Price: 15,000 gp; Cost: 8,000 gp + 320 XP.Karrock: The bite of a karrock spreads a deadly plague to its victim. Those bitten that fail a Fort save are infected (Injury; Fort DC 15; incubation: Instant; Init: 3d8 Con, Sec: 1d8 Con). Those who die from the disease fall to the ground lifeless, becoming a blackened, bloated corpse in but a single round. In a short span of time (1d4+1 rounds) later, the deceased victim rises as a karrock.Keeper: Keepers are undead constructs, but the exact procedure to create them is unknown, and there do not seem to be any known procedures to spawn new keepers.It is thought that the deceased god Teeth, The Master Vampire, passed the secret of creation of these creatures to his priests. With the god’s destruction, the secret to creating new keepers has become lost.Gray Render Zombie: ?Human Warrior Zombie: ?Cloud Gant Skeleton: ?Living Dead: The Living Dead are beings that have been infected with a deadly disease that stops the living processes (heartbeat, need for rest), yet sustains the body in a semblance of life.The bite and claw attacks of the Living Dead carry the disease that transforms victims into the Living Dead. Those struck by a claw or bite attack must make a Fort Save (DC 15; Infection: Injury, Incubation: 1 hour, Damage: Transformation). Failure on the save causes the victim to transform into a living dead within an hour. When the transformation occurs, the victim appears to drop dead, only to awaken as a ravening Living Dead a round later.It is thought that the living death disease is a creation of Lepornunse, who in some way wanted to emulate his father Teeth, lord of the undead.Living Dead Human Commoner: Wracked with the horrid disease that makes the victim like a walking zombie, the living dead is a being cursed to feed on human flesh and spread the terrible disease to others.The bite and claw attacks of the Living Dead carry the disease that transforms victims into the Living Dead. Those struck by a claw or bite attack must make a Fort Save (DC 15; Infection: Injury, Incubation: 1 hour, Damage: Transformation). Failure on the save causes the victim to transform into a living dead within an hour. When the transformation occurs, the victim appears to drop dead, only to awaken as a ravening Living Dead a round later.Living Dead Plaguebearer: ?Living Dead Lord of Disease: ?Redbones: Redbones are undead created by powerful spellcasters using a deadly spell to effect their creation.Redbones are created with the use of a special spell.Redbones are the specialty creations of the Red Cabal of Barbed March. The Red Cabal keeps the secret of their creation a jealously guarded secret.Redifre Death spellSkeleking: Skelekings are foul necromantic constructs animated from the fallen bodies of powerful Aesir warriors. Their endless years of battle give them great skill, and the foul magic that binds them back to a corporeal body also enslaves them to the evil being who has raised them.A skeleking template may be applied to any formerly good warrior-type of 6th level or better. Once animated, the flesh is consumed in an unholy fire and the incantation that raises them from the dead burns a crown of ashes into their skull, forever marking them as servants to their animator.Only spellcasters of an evil alignment who worship a devilish power can create a skeleking. Creating a skeleking requires the corpse of a deceased warrior with a Base Attack Bonus of +6 or better. The caster then uses the spell Create Greater Undead and requires the expenditure of a fire opal (instead of a black onyx gem) worth 50 gp per hit dice of the skeleking to be created. A caster cannot create a skeleking whose hit dice are greater than ¾ the level of the caster.According to legend, the Dark One found a way to steal away the dead from Asgard and bind them into these skeletal frames, and passed this knowledge to his dark armies of the Skyland Hold.Since the Skyland Hold fell, devils have continued to pass the knowledge on to those wizards and clerics who prove their allegiance to the Dark One.Skeleking Duke: This skeleking is formed from the body of a fallen warrior of good.Skeleking Baron: ?Skeleking Warrior-King: ?Skulleon: A skulleon is the undead remnants of a drake, orm or dragon brought to life by unknown magical powers. Legends often ascribe them as rising from the remnants of a draconic creature that was slain in battle and its hoard stolen from it.Skulleons are often ascribed to being remnants of dragons slain during the First Dragon War in Amberos’s past. The draconic remains often linger in desolate areas, killing all that come near.Skeleton: Those slain by the effects of the skulleon’s bite rise as skeletons under the control of the skulleon, their flesh sliding from their bodies as they are animated.Redfire DeathNecromancy (Evil, Fire)Level: Sor/Wiz 7Components: V, S, MCasting Time: 1 standard actionRange: Short (25 ft. +5 ft./2 levels)Area: 20-ft.-radius spreadDuration: InstantaneousSaving Throw: Reflex halfSpell Resistance: YesCasting this spell release a furious ball of flame that detonates with a low roar and deals 1d6 points of fire damage per caster level (maximum 10d6) to every creature within the area. The spell does no damage to objects. The explosion creates no pressure.Perhaps most insidious about this spell is that any humanoid victim reduced to -10 hit points or less by the spell is immolated by the flame, transforming the slain individual into a redbones (regardless of original form or HD). You cannot create more HD of redbones than twice your caster level with a single casting of Redfire Death. Any additional corpses slain but not raised by the spell are consumed to ash and cannot be the target of Animate Dead or another casting of Redfire Death.The undead you create remain under your control indefinitely. No matter how many times you use this spell, however, you can control only 4 HD worth of undead creatures per caster level. If you exceed this number, all the newly created creatures fall under your control, and any excess undead from previous castings become uncontrolled. (You choose which creatures are released.) If you are a cleric, any undead you might command by virtue of your power to command or rebuke undead do not count toward the limit.Material Component: You must possess a ruby worth 125 gp per redbones you animate. The magic of the spell turns the gem into worthless powder.</blockquote>
