Raise Dead

Raise Dead is a necromantic ability for the Necromancer class that attempts to raise the most recently slain creature as an undead minion.

Attempt to raise the latest slain creature (the ritual requires quite fresh material). When using this dark art, remember: almost any creature can be raised, but not everyone's will is easy to bend. This spell allows Necromancers to turn defeated enemies into loyal undead servants.

• Requirement: Must have recently defeated a creature
• Freshness: Works best on recently killed creatures

• Minion Type: Raised creature becomes a controllable undead minion

• Timing: Must be used soon after defeating a creature
