Caster may ask three questions of the spirit of a deceased body within range.
|
|
|
|
- The spirit will always reply in a tongue known to the caster.
|
|
- The spirit can only relay information it was aware of at the time of its death.
|
|
- If the spirit's alignment matches the caster, the spirit should provide brief, concise answers.
|
|
- If the spirit's alignment differs from the caster, the spirit may answer in riddles.
|
|
- The maximum amount of time that the spirit has been deceased is based on the caster's level:
