Raise Skeleton

Level Required: 1
Skills Required: None

"Cast on a corpse of a slain monster, this raises a skeleton warrior that fights for you."
This skill will reanimate the skeleton of a corpse to be under your control. Weaker than a golem, and not as good AI, but more points will allow you to raise more skeletons.

Blood Golem Icon

Blood Golem

Level Required: 18
Skills Required: Clay Golem

"Creates a golem that shares with you the life it steals and damage it receives."
This golem is loosely tied to the Necromancer's hit points. If the Blood Golem takes a lot of damage, the Necromancer looses some of his hit points, but can not be killed this way. The Blood Golem steals the listed percentage of the current hit points of the target. For example, Level 1 Blood Golem (steals 31%), attacking a 500 Hit Point monster would steal 155 Hit Points.
