Effects and formulas#
- Cast with [UndeadSummon while carrying a Necromancy spellbook. Requires a living caster, 80 Necromancy, 35 base mana, 1 free follower slot and no existing living bound undead.
- Let S = clamp(Spirit Speak, 0, 120). Base hits are trunc(80 + S); damage is 6 + trunc(S / 20) through 10 + trunc(S / 12); Wrestling and Tactics are 50 + S / 2.
- Duration is school-scaled (60 + S) seconds. The summon randomly appears as an ossuary guardian, plague revenant or ash fiend; these names share the same statistics.
- The creature is bleed-immune, consumes 1 follower slot and deletes its corpse on death. Shared summon school penalties can further reduce its health and damage.
Notes#
- Magery–Necromancy school conflict can reduce the effects identified as school-scaled. Listed mana and cast delay are base values; equipment and casting rules modify actual costs and timing.
