Spell Effects & Mechanics
- This spell turns a character – with the exception of undead, constructs or other characters as indicated on their Character Card – into a Death Slave, a special form of greater undead. The Death Slave has all the abilities, knowledge, and skills the character had when alive. Death Slaves are completely obedient to their creators, and will obey their creators’ commands with all their intellect and creativity; for example, “Trick your best friend into stealing the Queen’s crown.” Death Slaves know who controls them, but they will not reveal their controller unless the revelation fits in with the controller’s commands.
- The targeted character is brought to full Body Points and all limbs are healed when affected by a Death Slave spell. Even if the character was at the Brink of Death, they will be turned into a Death Slave at full Body Points. Note that this does not use up one of the characters life effects for the day as they are turned into an undead not lifed.
- When the character is brought back to life they recall everything they did during the time they were a Death Slave and they remember who cast the Death Slave spell on them. They retain their memory even if they are killed before their hour of undead existence is over. The character’s death must be recorded on their character card.
- Should the caster die or be affected by a Sever Magic spell, the Death Slave will continue to carry out any orders it was already given; otherwise, it will act according to its own volition. A Dominate Undead will override a creator’s control over their Death Slave.
- Death Slaves have the normal Death Count their character had while alive. A Death Slave will only exist for 1 hour. During that time the character looks obviously undead with pale rotting flesh. After 1 hour, the Death Slave turns to dust, even if they are being persevered by an Icy Preservation spell.
