Spell Detail

Sanctify Corpse

Description

prevent a corpse from becoming an undead.

this spell blesses a corpse with positive energy, preventing it from being turned into an undead creature. attempts to raise the corpse as an undead automatically fail. if the corpse is of a person slain by a creature that creates undead out of its slain foes (such as a shadow, vampire, or wraith), that effect is delayed until the end of this spell. it is possible to protect a corpse for an extended time by casting this spell each day. sanctify corpse can be made permanent with a permanency spell by a caster of 9th level or higher for the cost of 500 gp.
