Create Crypt Servant (Priest Spell)

This spell animates a corpse as a crypt servant. The corpse must be in reasonably good condition, and many are prepared in advance of their master's death. The spell must be cast in the tomb in which the creature is to serve. A crypt servant cares for its deceased master and all the rooms and possessions in the master's tomb: cleaning and repairing, pol­ishing valuables, lighting candles, and guarding the tomb from intruders.
A successful dispel magic ends the crypt ser­vant's animation, while destroy crypt thing (the re­verse of create crypt thing) annihilates the crypt servant if it fails a saving throw vs. death magic.
Notes: Very rare spell, found only in arabian settings.
Crypt Servant: AC 5; MV 12; HD 6; THAC0 15; #AT 1 or 2; Dmg by weapon or 1d4/1d4; SA Nil; SA call crypt servants; SD immune to pierc­ing weapons and charm, hold, and sleep; AL LN; Int Low (5-7); SZ M (4'-7' tall); ML Fearless (20); XP 650. A crypt servant engaging in combat calls all crypt servants in the tomb; these arrive in 1d6 rounds. Once the master's posses­sions or body have been disturbed, the crypt ser­vant fights with mindless fury, concentrating on the most recent offender.
