The Shadow of Life Renewed
R: Touch, D: Mom, T: Ind, Ritual
Req: Mentem

Brings a semblance of life to a corpse. During the ritual, healing spells work on the corpse, since the body must be physically whole or it dies again once brought to life. For each day the person has been dead, roll for aging. When the ritual is complete, roll to determine the success of the attempt:

Roll      Result
1 body dissolves
2 body possessed by a demon, faerie, or other supernatural entity
3 mindless, useless living corpse
4–5 automaton with no Abilities over 3
6–7 automaton, Abilities as normal person’s
8 person with self-direction but no personality, and dangerously demented
9–10 person with will, but no personality

In any case, the revived person is not truly alive and is unable to gain experience points. Also, the person must make an aging roll at the beginning of each year of its existence, regardless of age. This is the closest that the Order has gotten to raising a person from the dead.

(Base 70, +1 Touch, no addition for requisite)
