Turning the Undead

Some divine spell casters have the ability to turn the undead, with the chance of success noted in their character class description. Unless noted in the character class description, turning the undead may be attempted without limit.

Limits on Turning the Undead (Optional Rule)

Groups who wish to impose limits on turning the undead may use the following guidelines:

Frequency: Each character capable of turning the undead may make one attempt per encounter.

Mixed groups of undead: In encounters with multiple types of undead, a character who makes a successful turning attempt may optionally make another attempt in the following round. This process may be repeated until all types of undead have been affected or a turning attempt fails.

Duration: A successfully turned monster is affected for 1 turn. Following this turn, the monster may return.
