''Created by a mad wizard many centuries ago, this spell is considered dangerous even by the most insane necromancers, as it calls up the most powerful remnants of ancient mages which drain the life from everything around them and coalesce it into deadly shades.''
All living creatures in the area (including yourself, if applicable) gain 4d4 negative levels. For every two levels so drainedeach creature of CR 8 or more affects this way, a greater shadow comes into beingin the area. If a being of CR 15 or more is killed this way, it also transforms into a dread wraith, which appears where it was standing. All of these undead have +10 turn resistance and remain until destroyed.
Regardless of the type of undead you create with this spell, you can’t control more CR of undead than four times your caster level. If the number of undead created would exceed this limit, they come into existence uncontrolled (and very angry at being called up like this). The caster may choose which creatures to control in preference, and any leftover control 'pool' is wasted.
