DRACOLICH (dragon subclass) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dracoliches are the vile creations of necromantic sorcery. When a noble dragon decides to go further down the path of evil, she can choose to become this undead sorcerer of darkness. These creatures loose their previous skills and stats, gaining a higher intellect and dexterity, thereby dropping their once powerful strength and enduring constitution. Through these dark magics the Dracolich gains the ability to cast the spells that aided in its creation. The incredible stat reducing disease, the ability to charm those who also walk the world as undead, gaining the spell to heal themselves with the power to harm others in deathly cruelty, and finally the spell of darkness to hide their treacherous ways. Without the flesh and muscle of their former selves, Dracoliches loose the ability of flight. The new undead state grants new powers as well as penalties. The Draco builds up resistances to poison, drain and cold. Fire, lightning, and holy damage cause more damage to these undead abominations. Dracoliches are indeed powerful creatures of darkness. To become one involves a complicated quest which few know of, but be wary of the Dragon who would sell his soul for this power. It is only possible to become a dracolich between the levels of 4 and 12.
