+====== Souls Mechanic ======
+**Souls** are a special resource in Remixed Dungeon related to necromancy and the [[en:rpd:necromancer_class|Necromancer]] class. They replace the standard mana system for necromantic abilities.
+==== Description ====
+Souls are a resource that can be collected by the [[en:rpd:necromancer_class|Necromancer]] class through combat. They function as a special currency for casting necromantic spells and abilities. The souls mechanic uses the same underlying system as skill points in the game code.
+==== Acquisition ====
+  * **Necromancer Class**: The [[en:rpd:necromancer_class|Necromancer]] automatically collects 1 soul each time a creature dies while wearing the [[en:rpd:necromancer_robe_item|Necromancer's Robe]]
+  * **Combat**: Souls are gained primarily through defeating enemies
+  * **Automatic Collection**: Souls are collected automatically, no manual action required
+==== Usage ====
+  * **Spell Casting**: Necromantic spells consume souls as a casting cost
+  * **Special Abilities**: Class and subclass abilities require souls to activate
+  * **Necromancy**: The [[en:rpd:necromancy_spell|Necromancy Spell]] and other necromantic abilities consume souls
+==== Mechanics ====
+  * **Soul Capacity**: There is a limit on how many souls can be stored at once
+  * **Lich Subclass**: When the [[en:rpd:necromancer_class|Necromancer]] becomes a [[en:rpd:lich_subclass|Lich]], soul capacity is doubled
+  * **Resurrection**: The [[en:rpd:lich_subclass|Lich]] can resurrect when souls are at maximum capacity (consumes all souls)
+  * **Strength Penalty**: Becoming a [[en:rpd:lich_subclass|Lich]] applies a -2 strength penalty
+==== Strategy ====
+  * Focus on combat to generate more souls for abilities
+  * Balance offensive and defensive soul usage
+  * Plan ahead for expensive necromantic abilities
+  * Manage soul reserves during challenging fights
+  * For [[en:rpd:lich_subclass|Lich]]: Keep souls at maximum for potential resurrection
