A spell available to druids and magic-users. Note that the intent of the spell is to make a playable character.¹⁾

The precise mechanics of reincarnation in the milieu are left up to the DM.

The following system is recommended:^Ex

• Character keeps their XP total.
• Character re-rolls all of their ability scores and secondary attributes as though they were making an entirely new character.
• Player may select whatever legal class(es) they desire for the resulting form. Non-standard PC races will require DM declaration of what classes, if any, are available to the form based on the milieu.²⁾ If no classes are available, the DM will need to declare what sort of advancement is available to the form as per DMG 44.
• The resulting form must be reasonably playable as a character.³⁾ For example, reincarnating as a badger means the badger can talk (or maybe has telepathy!), since being unable to communicate ideas at the table would make the character effectively unplayable.
• The original form of the character determines by which magic the character can be raised.⁴⁾ See Death for more info.
• Reincarnation requires a resurrection check and counts against the maximum times a character can be brought back from the dead.⁵⁾ See Death for more info.
• The reincarnated form will not come with any adventuring equipment or wealth to speak of.
