Raise Skeleton

Arcane Ritual, Spell, Necromancy, Conjuring 2

APC: 9

SPC: 16

Range: Touch

Requires: Gesture

Duration: 24 hours

Touch one inanimate skeleton with no organs or flesh. You raise it to your service. It has the stats of a skeleton, follows your unspoken commands, and acts immediately after you in combat. If it is already a skeleton in your service, the SPC of this spell is halved and the duration is reset.

If a skeleton is still animated at the end of the duration, it collapses into an inanimate corpse again.

If you cast this same spell on the same skeleton once per day for a month, it becomes permanently animated. If you do so, the skeleton holds the potential to gain sentience, and the MC will determine when and if this occurs.

Upcharge: If you spend 4 additional SP on the spell, then you can raise two skeletons instead of one, provided that there are two inanimate skeletons for you to touch when you cast the spell.
