Death Magic - Level 2
The raise dead spell allows the caster to summon undead creatures as temporary mesmerised pets to command at will. The summoned undead are initially zombies, although will occasionally summon higher undead creatures such as mummies and skeletons, more so as the player increases levels in death magic.

Tips[]
- The duration that a minion is friendly depends on the charisma stat;
- The undead creatures will eventually snap out of their mesmiration become be hostile against the player;
- The more powerful undead such as skeletons will snap out faster than weaker undead creatures;
- The spell is an effective method to create a small army of minions, which may later be used to attack tough creatures or simply to act as a buffer between the hostile creatures and the caster;
- This spell is also a good method to kill traders (e.g. the shopkeeper) without taking damage or making them hostile towards the player;
- Zombies move extremely slow and are unreliable to follow the player while exploring the dungeon.
- Raising undead and then killing them is a good way to earn easy XP.
- Note: There is a maximum number of each undead that can be summoned in a single game.
