Resurrection[edit]

5-point abjuration (restoration)
Casting time:  hour
Range:  touch
Components:  V, S, M (a diamond worth at least 800 gp)
Duration:  instant

This spell is a legendary rite meant to bring an intact corpse back to life, but even when performed by the most powerful spellcasters it may not succeed. At the end of this spell's casting time, you touch the intact corpse of a creature, the spell consumes the diamond used as a material component, and the creature makes a d20 roll against DC 10. The DC is modified by the following circumstances:

+5 for every 24 hours that have passed since the creature died.
+5 for each time the creature has been previously resurrected or reincarnated successfully.
-2 for each living and present creature which as part of the casting time spends at least 1 minute truthfully narrating a meaningful bond with the deceased creature, or narrating a reason the deceased creature is needed. Up to five creatures can do so for a total reduction of -10.
The creature can willingly fail this d20 roll. Any undead or construct automatically fails this roll. On a failed roll the creature's spirit leaves this world forever, and cannot be resurrected by this spell nor any other effect.
 On a successful roll the creature is brought back to life with 1 hit point and a number of injuries equal to its proficiency bonus. Any nonmagical poisons and nonmagical diseases still within the creature's body are removed. This spell closes nonlethal wounds, but does not restore missing body parts.
Ultimate Spell. Once you cast this spell, you can't cast it again nor cast any other ultimate spell until you finish downtime.
