Reincarnate

5-level Transmutation

Casting Time: 1 hour
Range/Area: Touch
Components: V, S, M
Materials: tbd
Duration: Instantaneous

You touch a dead humanoid or a piece of a dead humanoid. Provided that the creature has been dead no longer than 10 days, the spell forms a new adult body for it and then calls the soul to enter that body. If the target’s soul isn’t free or willing to do so, the spell fails.

The magic fashions a new body for the creature to inhabit, which likely causes the creature’s race to change. The DM rolls a d100 and consults the following table to determine what form the creature takes when restored to life, or the DM chooses a form.

The reincarnated creature recalls its former life and experiences. It retains the capabilities it had in its original form, except it exchanges its original race for the new one and changes its racial traits accordingly.

If the creature is a member of a nonmagical race and becomes a member of a magical race, they may begin earning points in the appropriate sorcerer class.

If the creature has levels in the sorcerer class and becomes a member of a nonmagical race, their class abilities and spells are suppressed, and cannot be used/cast through means of wild magic.

If the creature has levels in the sorcerer class and becomes a member of a magical race of which they have not been before, then they must rechoose their sorcerer spells and abilities accordingly.

If the creature has levels in the sorcerer class and becomes a member of a magical race of which they have been previously, the spell and class point abilities are restored to those chosen at the last point in the creature's personal timeline that it was of the race in question. If the creature has gained levels in the sorcerer class since then, they may select their level up options as appropriate.
