The target must make a Constitution saving throw. It takes **7d8 + 30 necrotic damage** on a failed save, or half as much on a successful one. A humanoid killed by this spell rises at the start of your next turn as a **zombie** that is permanently under your command, following your verbal orders to the best of its ability. --- ## At Higher Levels This spell does not have an upcast effect.
