[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9121676, member: 2209"] [URL=https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/394807/Iron-Kingdoms-Roleplaying-Game--Legend-of-the-Witchfire?affiliate_id=17596]Iron Kingdoms Roleplaying Game – Legend of the Witchfire[/URL] 5e [b]Dread Remnant:[/b] ? [b]Risen Gatorman:[/b] ? [b]Risen Thrall:[/b] Eight mangled bodies lie among the ritual detritus in the room. Any character who closely examines the bodies and succeeds on a DC 14 Intelligence (Arcana) check identifies the runes cut into the bodies as thrall runes, which allow a necromancer to animate corpses or skeletons as risen thralls. Once the party has ascertained the location of the ritual, the corpses in the room spontaneously animate as eight risen thralls and lurch to attack the characters. Alexia [the Wracked] can use her action to animate the corpse of one Medium or Small humanoid as a risen thrall. [b]Thrall Warrior:[/b] Alexia [the Wracked] can use a bonus action and expend a spell slot of 1st level or higher to animate the corpse of one Medium or Small humanoid as a thrall warrior.

Corvis is known as the City of Ghosts for a reason, and even though full-fledged undead incursions are relatively rare, the dead do not rest easy within the city. Curses, hauntings, and spontaneous animations are distressingly common and often fall under the purview of either the Church of Morrow or the local chapter of the Strangelight Workshop, an eclectic collection of adventurers and investigators with a penchant for the weird and fantastical.
