Spells, such as raise dead or resurrection, return the body to its original wholeness. Unfortunately, in a Faded Soul, something goes wrong with the process. Whether it’s a raise dead spell cast beyond its time limit, an imprecisely phrased wish, a curse from malfunctioning magic item, or resurrection by an unholy artifact, something has gone horribly wrong. The soul of the hapless creature is part in this world, and part in the afterlife. Attacks: A Faded Soul can no longer use weapons, only a slam attack with its two clasped fists causing 2d8 points of damage.
