Summon Undead is a lower spell to summon a creature for combat.

Spell Description[edit]

This spell summons an undead creature like a skeleton or zombie in order to help the mage in battle, constantly taxing mana. Once the mage’s mana runs out or the spell is cancelled, the creature will turn against the caster.

This spell is similar to the necromantic spell Summon Dead.

Lore[edit]

This spell of the Earth gathers from the ground one undead creature who joins the caster’s side to fight. As an apprentice. I once tried to summon a treasured pig and instead called forth the bones of a miner. We seemed to enjoy our companionship until I ran dry of mana. Forthwith, the creature chased me over many hills to the doorstep of my mentor who dispatched the skeletal fellow back into the earth. The retelling of the story rekindles its embarrassment.
