I'm not quite sure, but I think it might scare of lesser undead "I don't know what World War 3 will be fought with, but I know World War 4 with be fought with sticks and stones." - Albert Einstein |

Becoming undead? Do you mean a reaping the benefits of a certain necromancer class power? http://tankefel.blogspot.com/ So far you have only killed one wild cat. |

Alex, I believe you are thinking of the "turn undead" power. This doesn't mean becoming an undead yourself, it means turning them away from you, that is, scaring them so that they run away. |

But ofcourse you can become an undead in ADOM - the profit it that you get a diffrent death message in the Hall of Fame; instead of "was killed by a vampire/wight/wraith/shadow" you get "was turned into a vampire/wight/wraith/shadow" - all you have to do is get killed by melee attack that drains stats, or get one of your stats drained to 0. A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. An optimist sees a light at the end of that tunnel. A realist sees a train. And the train driver sees three idiots on the tracks.

I wasn't sure for a long time either what "turn undead" meant, until I played as a priest and used it. (I thought it might destroy them, or "turn" them friendly or something) Molach: "I like to have 200+ hp and over 5 good healin potions when I do [the fire] temple. AND some way of killing the Wyrm" Morio: "Some way of killing the worm is recommended, yes :D" [Edited 1 time, last edit on 4/24/2005 at 01:41 (GMT -5) by Kirbot] |

Turn undead will repulse undeads (make them scared of you and run away), at higher levels (think that only apply to priests though) it can also be used to outright destroy "lesser" undead (good way to clear a room if a NPC Necro have been to summon happy. In D&D evil characters will turn the undead friendly rather than scare them away when they use the ability, but ADOM doesn't work that way. Jan Erik Mydland HoF admin |

in some versions of D&D i believe, it will actually kill undead (v 3.5, used for the rulesets in temple of elemental evil, and NWN, whiever ruleset was used in that) |

You could destroy undead with Turning in Icewind Dale 1 even. Though you had to be pretty high level. |
