Animate Dead	comment	The undead make great minions. But where are you gonna get your hands on a bunch of Skeletons or zombies? Why not go look up Animate Dead in your Tome of Eldritch Lore (it should be in chapter one, part II, "Exercises for the Aspiring Necromancer", just after "Applied Demonology"), proceed to your local graveyard, and give it a try? So long as you have enough mana, you can do this all night! Of course, easy come, easy go. Chances are that your new minions are low-durability and may even have a short lifespan. Good thing you can just raise the corpses of your slain foes, right? If you lack the necessary skills, of course, you can always employ someone else to handle the casting for you. But watch out for your opponents to figure out what you're up to — if the caster goes down, there's a good chance the entire army will crumble into dust on the spot (invoking Shoot the Mage First and Straight for the Commander). In short, when a spellcaster of some sort has a spell to create an undead minion out of a corpse (of whatever degree of freshness), that spell is some variety of Animate Dead. The usual output is a skeleton or zombie, though a mummy is another possible result if the corpse in question was embalmed. Incidentally, this is how traditional ("Type V") zombies are made — a voodoo bokor revives a dead person, who is then under their control. See also Necromancer, Cavalry of the Dead, Night of the Living Mooks, Raising the Steaks. Contrasts Revive Kills Zombie and Turn Undead. Not to be confused with Praise Dead.

Whilst it is possible to create Inferi, these are mindless creatures with no soul or intelligence, despite possessing human corpses and hence are not truly "raised" persons. Therefore, Necromancy does not work in this respect and it is indeed known to be impossible to truly resurrect the dead. (For someone like Voldemort, though, who has no loved ones and only wants minions, it works fine.)

Animate Dead / int_5908ee91	comment	Skyrim moves some spells from the previous games between magical schools. Conjuring involves necromancy (animating the dead, stealing their souls, summoning demons, etc.) which allows your character and some necromancer enemies to resurrect the dead as slaves to the being that resurrected them. The regular version has a bunch of drawbacks but can save your life when dealing with one badass army and a lot of dead meatshields; you can only have 1-2 dominated dead allies at a time (two if you master the 'twin souls' conjuring skill, and Serana the vampire doesn't count), the resurrected enemy is either too dominated to speak like they were alive or soulless and completely silent (no convincing people that the guy you murdered was fully resurrected), and if they die the spells break apart and the corpse turns to ash. Get the fully mastered spell though, Dead Thrall, and you can keep resurrecting the same corpse over and over and over! You can do this on almost any now-dead being, even the Emperor!

Animate Dead / int_5bd0554b	comment	Warcraft: All games have at least one unit able to raise the dead. Warcraft: Orcs and Humans: Necrolytes are orcs trained in the black arts to raise skeletons from corpses. Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness: Death knights, themselves undead corpses (the souls of orc warlocks stuffed into the corpses of human knights), have the Raise Dead ability, which produces a single humanoid skeleton warrior with a sword. Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos: Scourge Necromancers can raise Skeleton Warriors from corpses, and the Graveyard is a building which produces an infinite number of corpses. Thus the only limiting factor is mana. Inexplicably, one corpse of any unit type produces two humanoid skeletons with swords. The Avatar of Vengeance spams a shorter-duration Animate Dead spell while not being squishy at all. The Death Knight, a Scourge hero unit, has as his Ultimate move "Animate Dead" which raises up to six nearby dead units (of any allegiance) to fight for the Death Knight for forty seconds. One update made them invulnerable for the duration. Their invulnerability makes them notably good targets for sacrifice abilities like Death Pact or Dark Ritual that restore health or mana respectively to a Death Knight or Lich hero; this is because the invulnerable, reanimated targets won't "die" from sacrifice abilities. World of Warcraft: Death Knights have several spells that allow them to raise undead Ghouls from corpses. The basic raise dead spell creates an NPC Ghoul that will follow the player around and attack his target (Unholy gets a permanent pet under the player's control), Raise Ally raises a dead group/raid member (though mechanically it now just acts as a combat ressurection rather than raising an ally as a ghoul).

At the low end there is the thaumaturgical discipline known as Arts of the Dead, which allows familiar with it to raise a dead body as a zombie — this costs quite a bit and only lasts a few days. Midnight Caste Abyssal Exalted have the particular ability to animate any number of bodies with a simple touch. And then there is proper Necromancy, which ranges from "animate a horde of zombies" to "animate necromantic warmachine" to "summon the souls of a dead Titan"... even the Lunar Exalted get in on the fun, animating corpses using parasitic worms in a technique known as Wasp of the Labyrinth.

Animate Dead / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: The Trope Namer. The basic "Animate Dead" spell creates skeletons and zombies. The next spell on that list is "Create Undead", which outputs ghouls, ghasts note advanced ghouls, mummies, and mohrgs note worms that coil in skeletons and control them by contorting around the bones, they look like animated intestines with clawed mandibles. Then you get Create Greater Undead, which gives you shadows, wraiths, spectres note all varied ghosts, and devourers. Those are the core spells, others allow you to awaken entire battlefields note "Plague of Undead" or designate one undead to lead others note Undead Lieutenant can effectively multiply the amount of undead you control several times over. There's even a spell that kills an army then animates them as undead, although not all of the new undead are under your control. There's an even nastier epic spell that kills a single creature, then instantly animates it, with only the caster knowing at first. This can be used to infiltrate a group, though as time goes on, it becomes easier to notice. ("Say Regdar, you're looking really pale. Have you been getting enough sleep lately?") In Dragonlance: Shadow of the Dragon Queen, Cataclysmic fire reanimates the dead as fiery undead horrors. Lord Soth uses the fire to raise an army of death dragons, and in turn, those dragons can use their Cataclysmic breath to reanimate their humanoid victims as zombies under their command.

Vampire: The Masquerade: The Giovanni could make zombies as well (one sidequest in Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines has you stealing an instruction manual), and...the less said about the Tzimisce the better. Vampire: The Requiem: A few bloodlines — such as the Burukamin, who originate from the Japanese underclasses that deal with "unclean" jobs such as funeral duties, and the Sangiovanni, who are just fucked up — have bloodline-exclusive Disciplines that allow them to reanimate the dead as servitors. The Lancea Sanctum also have a Theban ritual called the Gift of Lazarus that allows them to create a sentient undead servitor that's perfectly aware of its condition and wants to go back to being dead, but is still beholden to the person that raised it.

Animate Dead / int_864a7357	comment	Total War: Warhammer: A speciality of the Vampire Counts. Available to all Lords outside battle, it allows the instantaneous... um, "recruitment" of units anywhere on the map. You can raise low-level zombies and skeletons anywhere, but for the really special high-tier units, you'll have to track down old battle sites — the level of the troops who fought (and died) there determines the level of the troops you can raise. Certain Lords can even use it in the middle of battle in the form of a spell to instantly raise a fresh unit, which is kept from being a game breaker by both the spell's cost and the fact that it's limited to raising cheap zombies (skeletons if overcast), which in the later game are only really useful as cannon fodder to distract the enemy from your better units or to get in the way of cavalry charges. The Grim and the Grave DLC adds two variations of this spell — "Awaken from the Grave", unique to Helman Ghorst, which summons Grave Guard or a Wight King if overcast; and "Command of the Unliving", unique to the Strigoi Ghoul King, which summons Crypt Ghouls or Crypt Horrors. In Total War: Warhammer II, the Vampire Coast gets another variation called "The Drowned Dead", which summons a Zombie Pirate Deckhands Mob or a Zombie Pirate Gunnery Mob, in addition to having access to the same "recruitment" mechanic as the Vampire Counts.

Animate Dead / int_999855bb	comment	Heroes of Might and Magic: In Heroes of Might and Magic III, the Necromancy skill raises a percent of the (non-undead) casualties from each successful battle as skeletons (or, in the case of dragon casualties, Bone Dragons). There is also a structure in the Necropolis (Necromancer/Undead City) that allows you to do this with 100% efficiency using your own troops. Heroes 2 also had the Necromancy skill (it was the first game in the series with skills and the first game with Necromancer-type heroes), though it lacked the aforementioned 'Skeleton Transformer' (but on the other hand, the Price of Loyalty expansion introduced a buildable building that raised the efficiency of necromancy for all your heroes by a set percentage). Additionally, the RPGs of the HOMM2-4 period featured an Animate Dead spell, which resurrected the target corpse as a friend of the caster. Heroes of Might and Magic V had a spell to raise any unit to fight again, but living units would die for good after the fight. The Necromancy skill originally worked the same as in III, but in the Tribes of the East expansion it was reworked into a fairly complex system that allowed Necromancers to raise defeated enemies as the type of undead most appropriate.

Animate Dead / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind and Oblivion offer the Conjuration school of magic. Included are spells to summon skeletons (of various strentchs), zombies (again of various strengths), ghosts/wraiths, and, ultimately, liches. Oblivion also includes the Staff of Worms, wielded by the legendary necromancer Mannimarco. It is a staff which can reanimate humanoid corpses, in which you can virtually reanimate anyone with it, including Mannimarco himself. Skyrim moves some spells from the previous games between magical schools. Conjuring involves necromancy (animating the dead, stealing their souls, summoning demons, etc.) which allows your character and some necromancer enemies to resurrect the dead as slaves to the being that resurrected them. The regular version has a bunch of drawbacks but can save your life when dealing with one badass army and a lot of dead meatshields; you can only have 1-2 dominated dead allies at a time (two if you master the 'twin souls' conjuring skill, and Serana the vampire doesn't count), the resurrected enemy is either too dominated to speak like they were alive or soulless and completely silent (no convincing people that the guy you murdered was fully resurrected), and if they die the spells break apart and the corpse turns to ash. Get the fully mastered spell though, Dead Thrall, and you can keep resurrecting the same corpse over and over and over! You can do this on almost any now-dead being, even the Emperor! For a meta example, the "resurrect" console command present throughout the series.

Animate Dead / int_fdf7a632	comment	Vampire: The Requiem: A few bloodlines — such as the Burukamin, who originate from the Japanese underclasses that deal with "unclean" jobs such as funeral duties, and the Sangiovanni, who are just fucked up — have bloodline-exclusive Disciplines that allow them to reanimate the dead as servitors. The Lancea Sanctum also have a Theban ritual called the Gift of Lazarus that allows them to create a sentient undead servitor that's perfectly aware of its condition and wants to go back to being dead, but is still beholden to the person that raised it.
