Primer:	[[spells|]]
Spell Level:	AotS 1 , Sor/Wiz 2 , Wlk 1 , Wild 2
Special:
Components:	VerbalVerbal: A verbal component is a spoken incantation. You cannot cast spells that require this component if you cannot act or speak. Certain rare spells, such as Silence Creature, may temporarily disable spells that require verbal components., SomaticSomatic: A somatic component is a measured and precise movement of the hand. You cannot cast spells that require this component if you cannot move causing arcane spell failure resulting in a ruined spell. Spells without a somatic component may be used with disregard to Arcane Spell Failure chance. Note - that characters make the same arm gestures for most spells in DDO, so you can't tell which spells require this component by watching your character's animations., MaterialMaterial: A material component is one or more physical substances or objects that are annihilated by the spell energies in the casting process. You must have the required items in your inventory. If you run out of the components, the game will not allow you to cast the spell and will instead inform you of what component is missing. The metamagic feat Eschew Materials and some enhancements in Draconic Incarnation can remove this restriction.

Description

Harnesses the power of unlife granting to the caster 10 plus 1 per caster level temporary hit points. Maximum caster level 10, for a total of 20.

Notes

• Potential bug: Hostile creatures casting this spell do not appear to receive any benefit from it. Their stated HP does not change, and tracking actual damage dealt suggests they are not receiving the additional hit points behind the scenes.
  • This is readily observed in the quest Proof is in the Poison, where there are dozens upon dozens of Quickfoot Caster mobs who lead in to combat by casting False Life, to no benefit.
