You touch a dead creature that has been dead for no more than a century, that didn't die of old age, and that isn't undead. If its soul is free and willing, the target returns to life with all its hit points. This spell neutralizes any poisons and cures normal diseases. It doesn't remove magical diseases, curses, or other such effects. This spell closes all mortal wounds and restores any missing body parts. The target takes a -4 penalty to attack rolls, saves, and ability checks, reduced by 1 each long rest. **The raised creature gains 1 point of Corruption.** A soul dead for days or weeks has drifted deep into the space between, the Void-saturated expanse that was once Mordath's clean domain of death. The return journey scars it profoundly. Many who are resurrected this way report that part of them did not come back, that something was left behind in the dark, or worse, that something followed them out.
