Class and Level Geekery VIII (spoilers ahoy!)

[Kish]

I tend to agree with douglas. If Malack can just create mummies whenever he pleases, then there's no reason to consider the presence of mummified bodies any sort of sign and so his stated motivation for going against his usual distaste makes no sense.

"Malack randomly prepares Animate Dead" is also significantly less plausibility-stretching than either, "Malack randomly prepares six copies of a level 6 spell which he does not expect to use" or, "Malack used Miracle."
