Minotaur Horror
Level: 6
Range: Touch
Components: V, S, M (minotaur armor and a body)
Casting Time: 1 hour
Duration: Instantaneous
Area of Effect: 1 suit of armor and 1 corpse
Saving Throw: None
This spell transforms the corpse or partial remains of a single upright bipedal creature of any race into the animate force of a Minotaur Horror. The horror rises from the remains three rounds after spellcasting is complete.
The spellcaster after casting the spell and creating the Minotaur Horror, the wizard loses 8 points of Constitution. He must rest for one hour to recover each point of Constitution. If the 8-point loss drops the spellcaster below a constitution of 1, he falls unconscious. Consciousness is not regained until full Constitution is restored, which takes 24 hours (one point per three hours for an unconscious character).
Once the energy animates "the body", the Minotaur Horror has stats like a helmed horror. The remains need not he whole and are destroyed in the casting, they must be the remains of a creature of chaos for at least part of its life or the spell has no effect.
The spell destroys the remains forever, preventing resurrection, animation as an undead creature, speak with dead, and similar activities from affecting them. A Minotaur Horror is not an undead creature. It cannot be turned, affected or dispelled by holy beings or things. It is a construction.
