Type Book
Name Book of Death
Icon 32px
A ghoulishly illuminated manuscript containing dark spells of Necromancy, written with inks distilled from corpses. Each page is filled with grotesque art depicting scenes of disgusting decay and horrifying death, with much of the text incorporated into the drawings as coils of entrails or arrangements of bone.

Spells

Spell Type Level
a - Corpse Rot Necromancy 2

d - Dispel Undead Necromancy 5
e - Excruciating Wounds Charms/Necromancy 5
f - Bolt of Draining Conjuration/Necromancy 6

As the sole non-artifact source of Dispel Undead, this book is helpful for both necromancers and mages who just want a way to quickly deal with the nastier varieties of undead.
