Disciple of Death Prerequisite: Necromancer You begin the slow path towards becoming a truly undead being. You gain resist 5 necrotic and vulnerable 5 radiant. Your appearance becomes gaunt and sickly, and you smell odd. Lord of Death Prerequisites: Disciple of Death You imbue your very being with the potency of undeath. While you are not yet undead, you gain resist necrotic 5 and vulnerable 5 radiant. You can be detected by spells which seek undead, but are not considered undead for all other purposes (such as turning). Your appearance looks deathly, and you shun the light. Undead Mastery Prerequisite: Undead Disciple, Lord of Death You are now the master of undeath, and your very body shows in its deathly palor and your disturbing presence. You gain resist necrotic 10 and vulnerability radiant 10. Avatar of Death Prerequisites: Necromancer You have learned to master the powers of darkness and are practically an unliving embodiment of the undead. You are now considered undead, immortal, and gain resist necrotic 15. You gain vulnerable radiant 15, and are now fully affected by all effects that target undead. Your appearance has changed to certifiably undead, and you no longer radiate any internal body heat. To maintain a human-like appearance you must invest in 100 GPs worth of products each month to treat your body to preservative fluids in order to sustain a semblance of your former appearance. If you choose not to do so, then you gain a -5 penalty to any disguise checks and are obviously undead to those you interact with in the future. If you maintain a semblance of life, then you must attempt a disguise check (thievery) of DC 30 to look like a member of the living. The DC goes up by 5 for each month you miss your regimen of life-like sustaining cosmetic and preservative treatments. If you miss them for a year or more, you are no longer able to disguise your undead appearance. Create Undead Level: 16 Comp. Cost: 4,000 gp Category: Creation Market Price: 15,000 gp Time: 1 hour Key Skill: Arcana Duration: permanent Through dark rituals you gather a corpse and imbue it with unlife. This spell is extremely powerful, and should be very, very difficult to find, and never learned spontaneously. DMs beware! Any undead can potentially be created using this spell. The caster must have at least 1 body present, and must have a specific undead entity in mind. The base DC for success depends on the following formula: Minions: DC=15+level of monster Normal: DC=20+level of monster Elite: DC=25+level of monster Solo: DC=40+level of monster For minions and normals, the caster creates 1 additional minion for every 5 points over the target DC he rolls on his skill check, so long as he has enough available bodies. The undead created are not under the caster’s control, and unless precautions have been taken (such as the Ward against Undead ritual) they will turn on their own creator. Greater Curse of Unlife Level: 24 Comp. Cost: 20,000 gp Category: Restoration Market Price: 75,000 gp Time: 1 hour Key Skill: Arcana Duration: permanent The Greater Curse of Unlife is a lengthy ritual prepared and cast by a necromancer preparing for the worst. Whether it be death by natural or unnatural means, the necromancer is planning for his own demise.....and return! The ritual spell takes a week to prepare, but once cast will remain in effect until the demise of the necromancer. After he perishes (fails mortality checks and/or does not return in any way, shape or form) the character affected by the spell will rise again at midnight following his demise. He will now gain the undead property, as defined in the MM, and be affected by any and all powers as if he were undead. Summon Homunculi Level: 1 Component Cost: 10 gp Category: Creation Market Price: 100 gp Time: 1 hour Key Skill: arcana Duration: permanent With a wave of your hand you imbue unlife in to fleshy bits, sculpting them in to a small and evil servant.You imbue dead flesh in to a form of life. It forms to create a permanent tiny undead entity which will function as a small and loyal pet and servant. The homunculus has the following effects for necromancers: Dark Vision: The Necromancer gains dark vision while the homunculus is within 10 squares. Shared Vision: The necromancer can see through the eyes of the homunculus if it is within 1 mile of his person. He may use dark vision when employing this effect. Recovered Energy: The necromancer may sacrifice the homunculi as a minor action and use a healing surge. Spell Conduit: the necromancer may enact any spell he desires through the homunculi as if he were in its square, so long as he can see through its eyes. Ring of Undeath This interesting ring of dull iron has the image of a dreadful looking skull upon it. When wearing the ring, you seem to look more pale and sickly to those around you, and seem to radiate a faint stench of death. Level 5 +1 1,000 gp Level 20 +4 125,000 gp Level10 +2 5,000 gp Level 25 +5 625,000 gp Level 15 +3 25,000 gp Level 30 +6 3,125,000 gp Bonus: The ring’s bonus increases Fortitude, Will and Reflex saves. Property: The bearer of this ring will be detected as if he were undead, though he is not actually undead (yet--see below). He gains a penalty to any Charisma check or skill check that might be adversely affected by his seemingly undead nature. Power (daily): Free instant reaction; Trigger: The ring-bearer is dealt a mortal blow that kills him or reduces him to 0 hit points. Effect: The ring wearer returns to life, as an undead creature, gaining the undead property as described in the MM, and is now subject to all effects, both pro and con, that affect undead.</blockquote>
