| This spell rapidly accelerates the decomposition of any corpses lying around the caster, emitting in the process a foul miasmic vapour, which eats away at the life force of any creature it envelops. |
Corpse Rot is a level 2 Necromancy spell which converts nearby corpses into clouds of miasma. Any living thing which enters these clouds will suffer rotting, poison, slow, and take damage (undead and constructs, however, will be unaffected). Most enemies will try to avoid this, so the spell can be used to block off corridors much like Conjure Flame. The cloud can be created on top of an enemy if it is standing over a corpse when the spell is cast.
Miasma is a very dangerous substance. Read the article on it before playing around with it.
