Dec 07, 2003 17:26:09 Just happened to find a reference in one of the novels that shows raising the dead. I know there have been a few threads about this topic and people have argued that Cathan, in the Kingpriest trilogy, was ressurected.

In The Reign of Istar (Tales II Trilogy - Volume One), written by Richard A. Knaak there is an example of a cleric of Sargonnas who raised a Knight of Solamnia after defeating him in the gladiator ring. He even goes on to say that he has raised several people to try to balance out the "good of the Kingpriest". He raised people who would fight against the Kingpriest in different ways.

There's not a big point here to the thread, just thought people would like the reference.

Dec 09, 2003 15:06:11 No, I do beleive he resurrected him. If I remember right the elf "friend" of his poisoned him or something...not exactly sure what he did, but he did kill him and then someone resurrected him and got him out of Istar to carry on the good fight against the KingPriest.
