Reincarnation

A dead character is returned to life in a new physical form that manifests in the presence of the caster. The character's new body is not necessarily the same as the original; it is determined by rolling on the topmost table below.

The roll indicates either a character class or a monster:

• Character class: The character is of experience level 1d6 (or at most the same level as the character achieved before death). The reincarnated character can continue to gain experience and advance as normal, in the new class.
• Monster: The type should be determined by the referee. The monster should be at least partially intelligent, have no greater Hit Dice than the level of the character being reincarnated (at most 6 HD), and be of the same alignment. The tables below may be used or the referee may create his or her own tables. Monsters cannot gain experience or advance in level.

The descriptions and stats of the monsters listed in the standard tables given here can be found in B/X Essentials: Monsters.
