 +====== Exhumation ======
 +
 +Exhumation is a necromantic ability for the [[rpd:necromancer_class|Necromancer]] class that allows the performer to open graves and potentially subdue the soul of one lying within.
 +
 +==== Description ====
 +Opening the tomb is a sinister act on its own, but not enough for someone serving Death itself. The performer of this Dark Ritual has a great chance (and it will grow with the performer's mastery) to subdue a poor soul of one lying in the grave. This ability allows Necromancers to recruit additional undead minions from burial sites.
 +

 +==== Mechanics ====

 +  * **Success Chance:** Probability increases with the Necromancer's mastery
 +  * **Result:** Potentially raises a new undead minion from the grave
 +  * **Type:** Usually raises a basic undead creature
 +  * When cast on a tomb or skeleton heap, the spell:
 +    * Opens the grave and raises any contents
 +    * Has a chance to convert nearby [[rpd:wraith_mob|Wraiths]] into the caster's pet based on the caster's magic level
 +    * Formula: chance = 1 - (1 / (caster:magicLvl() + 1))
 +
 +==== Usage ====
 +  * **Prerequisite:** A grave or burial site must be present
 +  * **Class Ability:** Exclusively for [[rpd:necromancer_class|Necromancer]] class
 +  * **Tactical:** Can add to the Necromancer's undead army
 +  * **Resource:** Uses existing dungeon features (graves) for advantage
 +
 +==== Classes ====
 +Classes that can use this spell include:
 +  * Classes with [[rpd:necromancy|Necromancy]] affinity
 +  * [[rpd:necromancer_class|Necromancer]] class and related subclasses
 +
 +==== Strategy ====
 +  * Look for levels with graves for this ability's maximum effectiveness
 +  * Particularly useful on levels with tombstones or burial themes
 +  * Can supplement other summoning abilities when resources are low
 +  * Higher success rate with increased skill level
 +  * Provides tactical flexibility in minion management
 +  * Best used when wraiths spawn near you after opening graves
 +  * Higher magic level increases the chance to tame wraiths
 +  * Synergizes with necromancy-related talents and equipment
 +
 +==== Data Validation ====
 +This information is extracted directly from the game code and validated against the source implementation. The details are accurate as of the referenced source files and provide reliable information about the spell mechanics.
 +
 +==== Considerations ====
 +  * **Location Dependent:** Only useful in areas with graves
 +  * **Chance Based:** Success is not guaranteed
 +  * **Early Game:** Especially useful when other summoning resources are limited
 +  * **Ethical:** Reflects the dark nature of necromantic practices
 +
