paganclt 11-30-05, 02:43 PM	I have recently started playing D&D after many years absence, what are the rules pertaining to how many undead a necromancer (archtype)/ charnelist? Is there a H.D limit or no? Thanx in advance for the help, pagan
the burrfoot 12-01-05, 02:17 PM	do you mean with an animate dead spell? or a create undead spell? or create greater undead spell? general of undeath spell or what? :confused:

Therefore, a 1st level Blank can control 2 HD worth of undead, whilst a 20th level Blank can control 40 HD worth of undead. No, that's for creating undead (usually). You can command up to 4x your caster level of undead. For example, if you had a 10th lvl Wizard, you could control up to 40 HD of undead.
paganclt 12-16-05, 02:18 PM	Thanx for the help folx, one more question. Where would I find any information on how a necromacer can create undead. I know that they can be riased and animated by spell. What I'd like to know is how a necromancer would go about creating various undead, using spells like graft flesh, embalm or any others. Does anyone know what spell combinations it takes to create some of the more interesting undead? I have the book of the undead and the book of vile darkness. Are there any books that I need to get this info- or does anyone have any spell combo's for putting together undead? Thanx for the help, pagan
