Reincarnation

Arcane Necromancy
Level: Magic User 6
Range: Touch
Duration: Instantaneous
Area of Effect: Person touched
Components: V, S, M
Casting Time: 1 turn
Saving Throw: None

Provided that a body has been dead for no more than one day per caster level, a powerful magic user can recall its spirit from the dead, investing it into another body. The form of the new body is not subject to the magic user’s control and is determined by means of the table below. The new body will appear within 1d6 turns near the soul’s former body. Elves may be brought back to life by reincarnation.

The new incarnation will retain the original character’s experience points, but will have new physical (Str, Dex, Con) ability scores randomly rolled and adjusted for the new race. The character will retain his or her original mental ability scores (Int, Wis, Cha).
