Effect

Place this pair of candles on the remains of a deceased creature and light the wicks. Over the next 6 hours, as the candles burn, the body reconstitutes, regrowing flesh, bones, organs, etc. After 6 hours, the candles burn out and the creature is resurrected. They gain a scar and cannot be resurrected in this manner again. Once lit, the candle can only be extinguished if someone intentionally blows or snuffs it out. If this happens before the 6 hours elapses, the corpse immediately rises as an undead creature of the GM's choice and becomes hostile towards all creatures around it.

Usage notes

Using a consumable typically doesn’t require a roll unless stated. Under pressure, the GM may call for an action roll.
