Ring of the Necromancer (Magic Ring)

A ring of the necromancer conveys only one benefit to all characters except neutral or evil wizards or priests. Once per week, on command, it forms a sphere of protection equal in effect and duration to that created by a scroll of protection from undead. The ring must be worn for a full week prior to each use. If it is removed for any reason, it must be worn for another week before it can be used.
However, when the ring is worn for a week by a neutral or evil wizard or priest, its true worth is revealed. Once per day the ring functions as a potion of undead control, and the undead it is used against get no saving throw. Once a week the ring will animate dead. Once per month the ring of the necromancer will summon any one undead creature (excluding liches), which serves the wearer for one day. However, before the ring will summon an undead, one living, intelligent, conscious, aware being must be ritually sacrificed to the ring. This act must be repeated each time this power is used.
