[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9658362, member: 2209"] [URL=https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/28544/Faiths-and-Pantheons-3e?affiliate_id=17596]Forgotten Realms Faiths and Pantheons (3e)[/URL] 3.0 [b]Zin-Carla, Spirit Wraith:[/b] The zin-carla template can be applied to the body of any formerly living creature with Intelligence 3 or higher. Lolth only grants the zin-carla ritual for the completion of specific tasks, and these may never be purely to work revenge or bring harm on other drow. The soul of a spirit-wraith is forcibly returned to its body by the will of the arachne who summons it, and it resents this act. At 9th level, an arachne can create a special form of undead called a zin-carla. The zin-carla ritual requires 8 hours and the intact corpse of the creature to be animated. The arachne must expend 50 XP per Hit Die of the creature to be animated. [b]Zin-Carla, Free-Willed Undead:[/b] ? [b]Undead, Undead Creature:[/b] Once the Crown of Horns was completely reconstituted, Myrkul teleported to many places across Faerûn, briefly settling on the brows of many living and undead former servants just long enough to create hordes of a undead in each location. The Binding of the Crypt and the Pact of the Everlasting are two rituals performed by powerful clerics, allowing them to return as an undead creature or be raised from the dead automatically if they are slain. Both rituals involve numerous other horrible incantations and the foul sacrifice of good-aligned sentients. [b]Undead Former Servant:[/b] ? [b]Servitor Undead:[/b] ?

[b]Hullack, Human Ghost Druid 18/Heirophant 2, Spirit:[/b] ? [b]Ghoul:[/b] After the creation of the Jathiman Dagger, Jergal himself saw to the destruction of the entire sect, trapping one hundred forty-nine members within a great coliseum and slowly imploding and then animating them as ghouls—forcing them to watch the fates of their friends with a mixture of horror and obscene hunger. [b]Lich:[/b] ? [b]Good Elf Lich Wizard:[/b] ? [b]Nhyris D’Hothek, Pureblood Yuan-Ti Lich:[/b] The most recent known bearer of the Crown of Horns, who bore it for at least a year, is believed to have been Nhyris D’Hothek, a male pureblood yuan-ti who disappeared from his haunts in the subterranean port of Skullport in 1370 DR after being transformed into a lich by the Crown of Horns. [b]Evil Lich:[/b] ? [b]Shadow:[/b] Any shadows this summoned [by a nightcloak] shadow creates by draining Strength are under the control of the nightcloak, but vanish along with the original when the duration expires. [b]Shadow Companion:[/b] ? [b]9-HD Shadow:[/b] ? [b]Undead Shadow:[/b] A Chosen of Bane can let his shadow roam free as an undead shadow under his control. [b]Free-Willed Shadow:[/b] A Chosen of Bane can let his shadow roam free as an undead shadow under his control. The Chosen remains in telepathic contact with the shadow as long as he and it are on the same plane. Shadows that it creates leave to become free-willed shadows. [b]Animate Skeleton:[/b] ? [b]Wraith:[/b] ? [b]Banedead:[/b] Intelligent undead with hideous claws and damage reduction, formed from worshipers of evil deities. [b]Banedead, Intelligent Undead With Hideous Claws and Damage Reduction Formed From Worshipers of Evil Deities:[/b] ? [b]Baneguard, Semi-Intelligent Skeletal Undead That Can Cast Blink and Magic Missile:[/b] ? [b]Banelich:[/b] Most previous Chosen of Bane were turned into liches by Bane, and at least 35 of these creatures were created in previous centuries. [b]Baelnorn:[/b] A good elven lich created to defend a sacred elven site. [b]Baelnorn, Good Elven Lich Created to Defend a Sacred Elven Site:[/b] ? [b]Death Tyrant Beholder:[/b] ? [b]Deathkiss:[/b] ? [b]Dracolich, Sacred One:[/b] Wearers of purple are typically leaders of such Dragon Cult cells.
