Finger of Death– 7th Level Wizard Spell (Player’s Handbook)





Finger of Death


(Necromancy)




Range: 60 yds.

Components: V, S

Duration: Permanent

Casting Time: 5

Area of Effect: 1 creature

Saving Throw: Neg.





The finger of death spell snuffs out the victim’s life force. If successful, the victim can be
neither raised nor resurrected. In addition, in human subjects the spell
initiates changes to the body such that after three days the caster can, by means of a
special ceremony costing not less than 1,000 gp plus 500 gp per body, animate
the corpse as a juju zombie under the control of the caster. The changes can be
reversed before animation by a limited wish or similar spell cast directly upon the body, and a full wish restores the subject to life.


The caster utters the finger of death spell incantation, points his index finger at the creature to be slain, and
unless the victim succeeds in a saving throw vs. spell, death occurs. A creature
successfully saving still receives 2d8+1 points of damage. If the subject dies
of damage, no internal changes occur and the victim can then be revived
normally.
