You return a dead creature you touch to life with 1 hit point.
- The creature must have died less than 11 days ago.
- The creature's soul must be willing and at liberty to rejoin the body.
Additional effects of this spell:
- Neutralizes any nonmagical poison and cures nonmagical diseases that affected the creature at the time it died.
It doesn’t remove curses or similar effects; If these aren’t first removed prior to casting the spell, they take effect when the creature returns to life.
- Closes all mortal wounds, but does not restore missing body parts.
The spell automatically fails if the creature is undead or lacks vital organs.
- Coming back from the dead is an ordeal. The target gains a -4 to all attack rolls, saving throws, and ability checks.
Every time the target finishes a long rest, the penalty is reduced by 1 until it disappears.
