- Override AD++'s melee skeleton's Level_5 & 6 into Skeleton Guardian
- Override Necromancy School level 2, 5 progression for new spell.
- Change spell for player's Death Knight minions.# Make the death knight more aggressive instead of using Compelled Duel all the time.
- Buff AD++'s melee skeleton's skills. #And their wapon looking rusty now.
- Buff Grim Harvest to apply cantrip. Ex. Bone Chill and Fire bolt.
- Added a new passive for the Ghouls: Apply prone on critical hit and heal self. #Override Ghouls stats & spells.
- Mummy's Dreadful Glare now cost bonus action instead actions.
- Shadow can now turn victims into new shadow and regain hit points everyturn in combat if it out off sunlight.
- Changed some spell icons to improve readability.
- Other thing I don't remember.

Known issues:
Spoiler:
- Warlock that uses potion can't use bonus action to cost Rise Dead.
- Flesh Golem's are lack of Jump, Shove, Throw, Climb animation in vanilla.
(I try to add them. Now it looks weird, but acceptable. But Climb animation are out of my ability)
- Flesh Golem's race is Skeleton, I tried to create a new race to use but it didn't work, sad.
- Player's Rise Undead NPC may not follow when changing the map. (If you need to switch maps, pick up your precious corpses and take them with you.)
- I really don't like writing skill names and descriptions, sorry.
- Resurrecting quest NPC may have unexpected effects. (untested)
- Some NPCs may lack some animations because they are not set up for be followers.
- Resurrecting NPC may have duplicate skills like jump.
- Some "Dead" NPC never designed to be resurrected. So they may not follow or take action after resurrection.

#Future Plan? Maybe?
Spoiler:
Move Death Shepherd to CreateUndead? Level 6 spells are very late game content. Maybe it's only 30% of the game, I'm not sure I want to do that.
Make a spell to unsummon all minions? Why not just take long rest?
Try to let resurrected creatures can receive automated auras. They have aoe shout spell to apply automation now. Temporarily removed.
Because it may cause AI to completely stop during the battle.
Make low level version of No Rest of the Wicked (Rise Undead) let the goblins feel some necromancy. Done.
Try to write skill/spell name & descriptions. Tried.
