Now, my question is... a skeleton doesn't retain any special abilities they had when they were alive, and thus their CR changes. A skeleton (with all the skeleton qualities, except they retain any spellcasting abilities) with levels in sorceror would probably have an increase in CR, but my questions is: How much? I was guessing +1 CR for the undead qualities and probably a +1 LA (feats and skill bonuses, but no CON)... But Im interested in your input :) /Gemstone
