1-level Necromancy
Ritual - does not require spell slot, takes 10 minutes longerCasting Time: 1 action
Range/Area: 60 feet
Components: V, S, M
Materials: a drop of blood
Duration: Instantaneous
Choose an unoccupied 20-foot square within
range—note that the area must have solid earth
beneath it; this spell fails if cast on the upper floor
of a building. This spell then causes one pile of
humanoid bones to rise out of the ground within
that square. If you cast this spell within a burial place
such as a graveyard, mausoleum, or barrow, 1d4 piles
of bones are exhumed instead of 1. The ground itself
is not changed or disturbed by this spell; the bones
simply appear out of the ground.
Available for: Cleric, Necromancer, Wizard
