Description: Lich’s are one of the most dark and evil spell casters. Lich’s are often mad men and monsters who sacrifice all which remains of their humanity to achieve what is considered the pinnacle of undead immortality and dark powers. Lich’s have some of the most powerful necromantic and dark magic literally at their fingertips, if a particularly powerful Lich lays their fingertip upon a living creature they will feel horrendous pain and possibly even die, this ability is referred to by many as “the touch of death”. The path to Lichdom is not an easy one however, the rituals and incantations stretch over many years and require the creation of an item known as a phylactery or “soul box”. When the Lich dies in their final ritual they transfer their soul into this item for safe keeping, the destruction of this unholy artifact bestows certain death upon the Lich.

Dracolich

(Transferred from the Dragon page)

(Description: A dracolich is a dragon of great magical power who in life strived for either a greater knowledge of the world or (more than likely) a greater sense of power than that of which a normal life would grant them. It takes the body nine years to completely decompose leaving a figure like that of a bone dragon, and to make it more susceptible to the magic. The soul and life-force will then be removed from the container by destroying it and by way of necromancy it shall be placed in a large gem stone which should be placed between the eyes of the deceased dragon. This will then bring the dead dragon back to life in the first stage of the dracolich. With this all complete, the former dragon will be immune to most types of dark magic. The drawbacks to this is that now this being, like regular lichs, begins to become mentally insane due to the calling of Death and other evil beings and spirits. There is only one known way to destroy or exercise the spirit from the dracolich and that is through a mystical book known as the Necronomicon, which has some how come up missing. It is thought that if you were to destroy the skull of the dragon you would be able to send it back to the Abyss, but no one has lived that long in a fight with one. Dracoliches retain all powers they had in a former life.
