Animate

Range- touch
Duration- permanent
Number Affecting- 1

Spell Description - This fills a corpse of any species with a pseudo-life. The undead creature will be bound to do the bidding of the Necromancer, and will aid them in any manner they desire. The nature of an undead creature is based on the following chart --

Mordas -- Nearly indistinguishable from a living person, except that they have no heartbeat and are cool to the touch. Undead of this type have been animated within 10 minutes of being killed, and they retain all of their former personality, magical abilities, and memories, excepting that they will be friendly and devoted to the Necromancer. These are the most powerful and prized of undead.

Fetters -- These undead have been animated between 10 minutes and 3 hours after death. They retain a small amount of personality and a simple intelligence, so that they can figure things out and must not be commanded in every action.

Zombies -- These are corpses that have not yet lost all muscle and flesh. They have been animated more than 3 hours after death. They possess no personality and must be directly commanded in their actions (for instance, "attack that man!" or "get me that plate of turkey.")

Skeletons -- These animated skeletons are pretty far gone -- they have no personality or intelligence and must be directly commanded.
