Bestows an enchantment on other nearby living creatures that causes them to rise as simulacra after being slain.

Bind Souls is a monsters-only spell that enchants all living creatures in the caster's LOS for some time. When an enchanted creature is slain, a simulacrum matching them will be created in the vicinity. This spell also prevents your own undead-creating Necromancy (except Death Channel) from working.

The following enemies cast Bind Souls:

L Josephina
p Necromancer

Additionally, the following monsters cast Bind Souls automatically when slain:

B Pharaoh ant

Followers of Gozag effectively neuter this spell; corpses turn into gold before they can turn into simulacrum.

History

Prior to 0.27, a simulacrum would only appear if an enchanted monster would drop a corpse.
Bind Souls was introduced in 0.19.
